*sigh*

I'm taking my computer in to be repaired today. I know I said I'd be doing this last week, but I lied. :-) The problem my computer is suffering from is that it shuts down whenever it does anything that requires a lot of CPU power, like a virus scan. But then, on my birthday, Aug. 15th, it got through one without shutting down. I rejoiced! Perhaps my computer would not need repairs after all.

Of course, no such luck. Yesterday, it died during the virus scan again. Running a computer game (Galactic Civilizations) also triggers the shutdown after a while. So, back to Circuit City it goes.

So, I've spent a good deal of time today erasing passwords, taking off customizations, etc. to prepare the computer to be taken in. After this post is finished, I'll be taking it in.

Fortunately, I have Mo:Blog! I can type up entries for Blog Jones from my Clie! So my already low post rate won't drop any. Hopefully.

I'm going to miss my computer. :-(
