(no subject)

Technology is trying very hard to make me hate it.

After getting a new charger for Taco's laptop after the universal one we got two months ago died suddenly, I managed to sit down, open a jar of face cleanser... and drop liquid down my keyboard on MY laptop. It freaked out, stopped booting properly, and now won't turn on at all.

Its sitting in a corner with the hope that if I leave it alone tonight it will start working again. If not... well, it IS under warranty, but fuck man...

I do still have the old clunky desktop GlaDOS who is still virus ridden but has a work around that lets me run firefox and trillian. Probably others but I'm not going to chance it. Most of my school work is on my thumb drive for the moment, I'll just have to do work at school.

I'm so frustrated about all this that I could cry.

Update

Haku (laptop) was able to boot up while I was on the phone with tech support, but the enter key was refusing to respond, so I couldn't even get past the 'safe boot up' menu that came up since I didn't "safely shut down my computer" when it freaked out.

I'm sending her in to Toshiba for repairs, praying nothing happens to my files and that they won't charge me.

Also hoping I get it back before KCon.

Gwar.
