Not the best day ever.

So today I woke up after insufficient sleep to discover that my computer broke itself. It did one of those auto update things and shut off, and now it freezes on the initial HP screen, and Windows refuses to boot up.

I didn't have much time to do much besides poke it and hit the emergency reset button a couple times to see if it would help, which it didn't (there isn't much else TO do about it)...before having to run off to Japanese, where I rediscovered the hiragana quiz that I'd somehow spaced out.

I mean, I know hiragana, so it was fine, but still...augh.
And then in calc I discovered that I didn't complete the problem set that happened to be due because I was too busy doing online reading for Human Service class, which, in the end, turned out NOT to be due today because there are two separate syllabi with different information and due dates.

Though...in the end, it's probably a good thing that I DID do that reading, because in the event that my computer ends up in a shop for an indeterminate amount of time, that's 70 pages less PDF file I have to read in the library.

Hugh has promised to look at my computer but I'm pretty skeptical that he'll be able to fix anything. Still, hope is something beautiful that this day has sort of...lacked so far. On the bright side, if I end up with no internet access in my room, I might actually get other things done for once.

I sort of want to go back to my room and take a nap and hope that when I wake up today never happened..except that the weather is still alarmingly nice and it's instilling in me a need to escape, if only ever so briefly. So I think I'm going to go get on a train. And be back before Hugh gets out of class, hopefully. Though the way this day is going...who knows.

Addendum

So my computer works, however tentatively. :D Hugh didn't really do anything to it, but when I turned it on when he was there, it showed not only the logo (which had been the only thing showing up previously), but also offered a keystroke for boot order...and through lots of random needling the system managed to start again... I'm not sure what was wrong or how exactly it was righted, though, so I'm sort of wary that it might not be 100% resolved.

But still. Working computer. Whoo! Hugh is my luck charm I guess.

I'm still batshit tired, though.

Also, puta madre qué frío. It's not even as cold as it has been at times, but compared to the springy teaser we just experienced, fuck it seems cold.
