My Macbook, which is only 6 months old, crashed last night and I can no longer see the hard drive when I start up with the install disk and run the Disk Utility. Which means it's gone, and I have to find an Apple store and make them fix it. They won't help me over the phone because it's more than 90 days since it was purchased (bastards.)

I'm on Gina's computer now. Cross your fingers for me. My email access will be extremely limited in the coming days.

Also, not quite able to finish Bill Clinton's crossword. Got all but about 8 squares. He is a devious bastard. This one was way punny.

Today tried to kick my ass, and I rose triumphant. J. and Brando were both out, for the second Friday in a row, so I had to do that evil procedure that I'm barely comfortable with and have to do reeeeally slowly, as well as all my other work, and I goddamn did it because I am kind of awesome.

When I got home, my new bedding had arrived. This brightens everything in my life.

Last night I lay in bed awake, too scared to sleep because I was thinking about the latest episode of Lost. I mean, I was spooked just thinking about it. That always happens to me - I'm fine at the time, but when I think about something later I get so scared I'm afraid to move and every noise makes me jump. It happened with Suspiria and with Jacob's Ladder and with Wednesday's episode of Lost.

Today was unusual: I left work early so my mom and I could go to a taping of The Daily Show. I hadn't been to a tv taping in awhile (Hugh Laurie's Actors Studio last year was the last, I think?) and it was pretty fun. The guest was George Tenet and we did not boo him, which I thought was very civil of us.

We went to a decent barbecue place after.

The best part was getting to leave work early. And hanging out with Mom. Mom is so cute. Hi, Mom.

I love my new bed and I love my new room. Almost everything is in its place and once my tapestry rod is up and my pictures are on the walls and my new bedding arrives it will be perfect. I'm sore all over from helping move the tv upstairs to Gina's room and also from being pathetically out of shape.

I haven't been blogging so much lately. Life has been exhausting me, and the computer makes my eyes hurt.
