The Computer Blues

“When my computer is good, it is very, very good, but, when it is bad, it is horrid”...

And that’s me for today, anyway. You never know when you are going to open the screen, only to find parts of it have died, or it refuses point blank to let you access your emails.  Good start to the day, wouldn’t you agree?  Oh well, I have to stop to taking it personally. 

 The trouble is that the wretched thing has become almost my best friend, and I feel upset by its rejection of me.  What has happened?  What could I have done to offend it?  Or have we, me and my buddy computer, become victims of foul play? Are we in the grip of the Techno-Mafia?  Terrible thought.
 

At least, with a few years of trial and error, mostly error, I am a bit more techno-savvy than I used to be.   My frenzies don’t last as long.  I have become more philosophical.  Now, I know it will be fixed, so I shouldn’t drive myself mad with trying this and that.  Although, by trying this and that, I sometimes manage to fix the problem.  I have a couple of alternate strategies, which I bring into play, but if nothing works, what the hell, that’s it for today.  I’m off!!!
