Computers hate me.
I've been having a severe case of computer trouble since May. First, my Command key broke, then the right arrow key. I go to get them fixed, and, that day, my hard drive crashes. I lost all of my movies, photos and videos that I had accrued for the previous six months (update- all of my movies and music are back, thanks to some reverse uploading from my iPod back to my computer, and I backed up all of my photos to flickr, so everyhting's fine now).
So, while my laptop is in for repairs. I have to use my desktop. Which needed a new set of Ram, and a firmware update. The firmware update, in turn, made my computer run great, but nulled my old wireless adapter. I had to get a new one (we don't have a wired house because I am the only one in my family who owns a desktop), and, as it turns out, because all new Macs come with internalized wireless receivers, they don't make any for Mac anymore. I eventually found one, by the time my laptop returned from repairs.
Then, last night, I was playing the new SIms on my laptop when something truly bizzare and impossible happened- my laptop's power cord got so hot it melted. Yes, melted. In two. It almost set on fire if I didn't notice the smell of burning plastic, too.
Sheish.
