computer woes

let me start off by saying that i (Austen) have a 10 page paper i should be doing instead of this. but i feel guilty for starting a blog, and not blogging regularily. thats weird. funny story as to why i am writing this paper now:
when Jeff came to visit, i neglected my studies, big deal. i knew i had some papers to do, but i THOUGHT they were all due at the end of the month, like 27th-ish. which is true for 2 out of 3. unfortunately i misread the 1o page research paper due date, it was due on tuesday the 22nd. so i had to ask for an extension and write it in 2 days. not too bad since i had the research mostly done, just needed to throw it together. worked tuesday for a bit, and then left the rest till wednesday night. i really got going, and was in the zone. you know when you are writing, and its just going good? i was there. decided to take a little break, have some food. saved the paper. saw that there were some updates to do, so i clicked "ok". when they were done, it said i needed to restart, no big deal, this is common. unfortunately for me, that would be the last time that night my computer worked. after i hit "restart" it did not restart. in fact it would go to the first "loading page" where the circle spins, and that is all. i spent two hours in vain trying to figure out why it would not go. you can imagine my anxiety level at this point. the phrase, "is this actually happening to me?" floated through my head a lot that night. finally i called it a night. the next morning (this morning), i took it into the campus computer store, and 8 hours later, fixed! they said that i shouldn't have left programs running while updating. whatever. point of the story - don't buy a mac! JUST KIDDING, do buy a mac, but don't be a dumbass like me. the whole reason i bought a mac is because i thought they were crash proof. little did i know i could make it crash, good on ya austen.
