It's "I Hate Technology Day"!

I got a new iPod. Well, a used one, from ebay. My computer doesn't like it. I spent two hours last night trying to get them to communicate, but they didn't want to. Well, eventually they did, but not in a way that I wanted. It's a long, boring story, so I won't get into it. Let's leave it at this: my computer doesn't like new things, and thus it didn't like my new iPod.

Today at work, I find that over the weekend, all of my shit got erased from my work computer. Well, it might be erased, and it might just be in a user account that I can't access anymore, and that tech support can't seem to access either. All five days' worth of music I had saved on it. All my documents, including old time sheets and work-related stuff. All my fancy widdle programs that make my life easier, like Trillian and Firefox. All gone. I called tech support, and they can't figure out what happened. They're "working on it." We know what that means. All gone.

And they're painting today. Mmmm, paint fumes.

But it's not all bad news! Here! (Link stolen from mimi smartypants.)
