Did I mention...?

Did I mention that things are not going well...?

I took the day off today. However, my day started with a 6 am conference call. And the call was on a topic which is very aggravating to me anyway.

I played golf today. Grapevine w/ Tom. I did manage to shoot a 74 from the white tees, which is great considering I have not played or practiced in a while. However, while playing, I noticed I did not have my 9-iron anymore. However, start from when did I not have it...? Did I not have it when I warmed up on the driving range? Did I lose it the last time I played which would have been a couple of weeks ago? Or did I lose it on one of the front 9 holes. Argh. I had never lost of club previously...

I bought a replacement for the edger. This time I bought a battery-operated one so that it is cordless. Getting out the extension cord every time was such a big hassle.

It turned out it was a bad hard drive on the ReplayTV. I replaced the hard drive and it is working fine. However, the hard drive does not seem to be recoverable. Hmmm, I could try one of the data recovery tools I have. Note to self: Try one of the data recovery tools I have.

Oh, and the PC which has my MovableType weblog doesn't connect to the Internet anymore. I should back up that machine, but install MovableType on a different machine.

And since this is a hi-tech blog, I won't get into the topics of where things are not going well not related to hi-tech.

On a positive side, I was able to go to the office (on my day off) to pick up a loaner notebook computer from Mary. I was able to use my hard drive, and so far, it has not crashed! I am not using my memory, though. I have such a bad memory anyway.

And NERP called and said that my replacement should come tomorrow. Since it is a replacement of a replacement, that means it's a re-NERP.
