Don't Buy Gateway

Both, yes both, my laptop and my desktop are dead. The desktop was getting old, and I knew it was on its last leg anyway. The laptop has been a nightmare, and Gateway has been giving me the run around on replacing my defective hard drive. I am so incredibly mad at them, there are not words. Well, there will be many, many words in a cranky letter to the most important people I can get it to. But yeah.
So, that's the reason for the not blogging. Sorry. In the meantime, I've finished some awesome socks, participated in the Pratchgan, bought a new spinning wheel, bought a loom, made a Clapotis, and am going to be an awesome pirate at the Renaissance Faire tomorrow. I have also not been going to the Wednesday meeting because I am a total Olympics junkie, and my work schedule has gotten absurd.
Pictures of much of the insanity later, just thought I'd throw in the brief summary.

Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr, matey.

I'll second that, though - my Gateway did really well for a while, then just imploded. Grr.

I've been wondering why you weren't blogging. So sorry to hear about the computer problems. Gateways aren't the same since they stopped making them in the U.S. Hubby says the university stopped buying them because of quality issues and service problems.
