Title: Sanity Restored
Post by: sawdustdave on February 23, 2005, 12:26:15 AM
Well, it's 11:30pm, and I, like the good system admin that I am, am still at work... Stupid computers!

Fighting to find why I can't delete a printer driver which is wreaking havoc on my remote users at a job site. Finally, it's gone. Wonderful the way servers seem to share back and forth between them!

Fortunately, my little Parlour is here with me. Tuned, and ready to help me through the "opportunities to reboot" I've been given. See, it's nights like this that make me wonder whether all this technology is worth it. At least to me. Might be nice to work in my garage shop, cranking out chests, boxes, the occasional music stand, and, someday, my own handmade guitar.

And, I think my little Parlour would fit in that world pretty well, too! Nice to have her around on these cold, lonely nights!

And folks wonder why I keep a guitar in my office!

Hey Dave,

Guys and gals like you are what allow me to go through this life (so far anyway), being only computer "semi-literate." I'm glad you have a guitar on hand for those tedious rebooting and blue screen of death times.

That's why when it came down to upgrading my computer, or buying Pete, the guitar won out. It won't be obsolete in 10 years. Provides much more enjoyment, and much less frustration! Besides, I sit at a computer for 8 hours a day (even if it is a Mac), so I like to go home and do something else.

Deb - is a Mac really a computer?  :unsure:

Seriously, I've come to the point where replacing my 3 year old laptop isn't worth it because I wouldn't gain anything usefull.

But I do wonder what it would be like to use my hands for sustenance instead of whatever I'm using now.

Man, am I in a down mood, or what?  :blink:
