Otherwise, how did you manage to humiliate yourself with the tech guy from your cable company? ???

Well, the other day I tried to change over from one PC to another, by myself.  Well, there are so many cables with the computer, the modem, the WIFI, etc., etc., etc.

I did fine until I got to one cord that I thought came from the modem, but I couldn’t find a place on the new computer where it would plug in.

So, today I get the tech guy from Rainier Connect on the phone, and, well I am not very technically savvy.  We go around and around for over a half hour and we are both getting frustrated because he is telling that I can use any of the other three plugs on their box to make it work and I am telling him there are no other plugs on their equipment.

Just about then I flip over this little black box of their’s, and I notice that it has Lenovo imprinted on the box.  That happens to be the brand of my old PC!  Hmmm, something is very strange going on here.

I tell this guy that I will try to follow his directions, and if I can’t figure it out I will call him back.  The black box in question just happens to plug into my old computer on one end, and the other end plugs into the electrical wall socket.  Yes I was trying to get the old computers electrical box plugged into my new computer!

Turns out the back box the techie was talking about was on the shelf below with all of spots he mentioned.  Of course I didn’t need to plug anything else in because that cord had nothing to do with the new computer.

So, I pushed the start button and like magic it started right up!

If any of that makes any sense.  In other words, I am an idiot.

Today is going to be a day!  My friend Margo and I are going to Seattle to see Miss Saigon at the Paramount!  I'll leave work early, then go to my sister's to borrow her daughter's car (and do a little repair work on the chicken coop ::) ), then pick up Margo, then head to Seattle!

We'll dine somewhere in Seattle...hopefully, not too far from the theater and not too expensive.

I've only seen Miss Saigon once before, at the 5th Avenue Theatre, years ago.  I'm sure that this will be a good production.

The sales is for specific titles, though.  I've only gone through a few screens, but I've already got six DVDs in my cart!

It’s an early one for me because I have to be at the dermatologist at 8:00 for a Procedure.

I had one spot that was squamous cell so it gets removed via “Mohs” surgery. I’ll be back this afternoon. With a bandage!

It was a rough night.  I'd rather be in bed, but I couldn't sleep, so I'm up.
