...not the Radiohead song, but my computer is finally OK. Repaired, that is. So the reason I've not been posting for a fortnight is that my computer died. I, not being that variety of geek, was helpless. So, I lugged the box into CompUSA and BestBuy, only to be told by the former "Yeah, you need a new power supply. Just order one online and we'll put it in for you." Thanks, genius. Apart from not being on the internet at home, I couldn't find the power supply I needed anywhere on the web when surfing at work. So the BestBuy Geek tells me, "Oh yeah, you can use our website to order the part," and kindly let me use their computer to order it on the web. After calling him back over several times to assist me in my clear incomprehension of the way to do this (his eye rolling and sighing were not lost on me), it was done. I managed to install it myself, but that was nothing compared to trying to communicate with the creature I shall hereby call "Geekus computerstoreii".

I shall hereafter return to the web in full force. [Menacing music] Check for further blogs soon...
