I finally received some good news yesterday. I received a commision to design a website, and the money will help. Money always helps, and I love doing site design, so it’s a good deal. At the same time my printer decides to start dying. So help me, I wanted to help it along. The strange thing is I don’t think it’s the actual printer that has the problem, rather I think it’s the laptop serial port. If that’s indeed the case then I’m in trouble, seeing as that’s why the sound is having issues on the laptop as well.
\nThen today the wireless connection doesn’t want to stay connected no matter what I do. What is this, karma? Though I did figure out that the problem with my iPod battery was related to a turned off surge protector and not the battery itself. Now I have to deal with this. I’m a closeted geek. The wireless networks have been growing in our apartment building, and I think maybe the new one has been clashing with ours. So I enabled WEP encryption, succesfully locked myself out of internet access for half an hour, and then I was able to get an IP address again. At least no one can steal our bandwidth, but I don’t know if my laptop is behind the wonkiness.
\nI need to reformat. I’m not even sure if a reformat will fix the problems if they’re hardware related. Compaqs just love falling apart on me physically after two years.
\nI went to sonystyle.net and drooled at the vaio laptops. They sell a 100 gig model that’s for business and design and all for like $40 a month. What is considered the best brand for laptops, other than Dell?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
