Finally I’m Back

Well, to update you all, about a week and a half ago my computer displayed a blue screen.  My laptop was so proud of its blue screen, it stubbornly decided that is all it would display.  The next morning I had my computer all ready to go out the door, and I locked myself out of the house since I was carrying so many things in my hands.  That’s the first time I’ve done that since I’ve moved into my house a year and a half ago.  At least I had my cell phone with me and I was able to call a locksmith.  While I waited in the car about 2 hours to find a locksmith and then wait on him to come unlock my door, my feet started feeling numb.  I just decided that I would chalk the day off to taking my computer in to be fixed since half the school day was gone anyway.  After describing my problem to the computer repair technician, he  said, “Yeah, we call that the blue screen of death.”  That was encouraging. :/   So, after waiting a little over a week, I finally have my old couch companion back minus its programs, but gladly with all files in tact. 🙂 YAY!  I guess the technician heard my laptop singing….”if I only had a brain” because it came back with a brand spanking new hard drive!
