Believe It Or Not
Well, you probably will believe it, and I'm sure you'll get a laugh out of it too! Saturday night as I sat at my computer finishing the powerpoint for our VBS, my computer started acting weird again. It has been doing this for about a month, but I didn't have the time (or money) to fix it. So, I kept using it. Anyway, as I sat there finishing my work, the monitor started...well, it was doing weird things. Fortunately, I saw what was coming and was able to save all my work on my flash drive (thank goodness I already had it plugged in!). Right after I saved my last file (this work had taken me 7 hours to do, okay...), the monitor exploded. Well, maybe it didn't explode, but it popped and blew smoke everywhere. So, here I am sitting in my family room surrounded by smoke, and then I realize...I need to change the batteries in the smoke alarms (this little incident would have definitely set it off!). Anyway, I had to borrow another computer and finish my work. But as I said, I'm sure you'll find it funny, and I probably would have too if I could have seen the look on my face.
Now I've said all that to explain for my lax blogging. It's hard to see when you don't have a monitor! But thank goodness I kept an old one and am using it for now. Oh I can't wait for the day I get a laptop with internet from Cingular or Alltel! No more dial-up then baby!
Love of the...
