Worst. Easter. Ever.

1. Woke up this morning, and my computer was dead. I need to get a reboot disk shipped to me to fix it, which is going to take a week.

2. While making potato salad for lunch, I was grinding some peppercorns when the grinder broke in half, showering the entire counter with peppercorns, and spilling most of them directly into the all-but-completed potato salad. The only things I had not yet added? Mayo and the hard boiled egg. The egg was tasty.

3. There is a plumber here, snaking the lines. Water coming back up the outtake line is NOT acceptable, especially 2 weeks after having it snaked.

Today did NOT turn out as intended. I'd like a do-over please. When I wake up tomorrow, I'd really appreciate it if it could be Sunday again, and maybe these bad things just not happen.

That'd be great. Thanks.

ETA: 4. The plumber's line snake just broke, about 3 feet short of the major clog. No, seriously.

I quit

Oh my gosh. What a horrible series of events. I am so sorry and hope that tomorrow you win a million dollars.

till the disk gets there, give ubuntu a try. Load it to the hard rive or not (shouldn't make a difference if the disk is reloading your OS, but it can be used as a live CD just in case). Maybe you'll like it, but even if not, it's easy to use for a week and it's free.

What OS are you using? If I have one for your OS, I might be able to get a boot disk to you faster than a week.

That's the kind of day where I think the only solution is to just go back to bed.

Dude...that's just a messed up day.

Seriously, F'd up.

Sending good vibes now and hoping they make it in time to undue all the crazy vibes.
