Apple gods don't like me
So, the PowerBook didn't boot again this morning. Or rather it kinda booted, but it didn't give me any indication that it was booting except emitting a timid disk-spinning whine. The techie thinks it's not "waking" properly, so my PowerBook is in a coma and being tended to at the Mac Clinic. At 4 a.m. this morning, a cop car chase was screeching and blaring around the neighbourhood. This makes no sense to me — why, at 4. a.m. in the morning when there are no cars on the road, do they have to blare their sirens full blast? At 5 a.m., a machine which sounded like a chainsaw orchestra started up in the building that's under renovation just behind mine. At 5:30 a.m., someone on my floor banged their door shut, three times. At 6:30 a.m., trucks started pulling into that building behind, machinery started whining ... So, given that the computer and I are going through a temporary separation to settle our differences, the morning papers might not be updated for a few. You could say I've had better days.
