Ooh, Reason for Panic?
Jun. 12th, 2002 02:37 pmActually, here I am, typing up a weekly status report and I move the mouse to hit the save button, when the screen goes blank, the computer blips, the lights go out, and the AC goes dead silent.
Ooh, power failure. Fun, wow!
Course, it only lasted for about 30 seconds, just long enough to mess up anyone who didn't save regularly. Luckily, I did, and so only had to retype 2 sentences.
Still, there's that moment of heartwrenching shock as I wonder what I did that broke the computer ... even though I /know/ better - I mean, I have a degree in comp sci, it's not exactly new to me or anything. But still ... and then it's followed by the adrenaline rush and the disappointment that it didn't last long enough to send me home for the day.
*sigh*
Oh well, back to the grindstone, hmm?
