...This week on "Lame Days of Our Lives" starring Alexis SC430...
Well, to add injury to insult my ATA Card breathed its last (lucky bastard) just as we started to get the DSL working again. Since my motherboard was built during the latter half of the Truman administration it cannot support hard drives larger than 137 GB like the one my boot partition is on without an ATA card (well, it sorta can, but it leads to severe tooth-grinding problems).
I do have a 120 GB hard drive I can reload Windows on, however I apparantly neglected to make some sacrifice to some dark, forgotten god/dess and so as punishment s/he hid my WinXP CD.
To top it off, this rabbit I've been trying to kill for ruining my garden managed to suspend an anvil by a rope over the front door and dropped it on me earlier this morning -- my head is killing me and I can't remember where I put the hollowed out carrot with the stick of TNT in it (I'm sure it'll turn up).
As a result, I have been offline the past several days, but hope to be back later today. However, if any of you have been wondering where I've been the past week or so that's where.
(BTW, anyone know where I can get more TNT cheap? I checked eBay, but came up with zip.)
