willow_25Not a damn thing got done at home last night. Okay, I took out the trash and did some dishes, but it's not like that was taxing. And writing...Snort. Yeah, right. It was hard to write WITHOUT A COMPUTER. My poor little laptop is under attack; either by a very sneaky virus, or a software issue. I updated, ran virus scans, and defragged for 5 hours last night, and this morning when I turned it on it was still not working correctly.
I'm probably gonna have someone look at it, since I don't seem to be doing any good on my own. The whole thing is very upsetting. It's a new computer, after all (okay, it came to me re-conditioned, but it's new to me). Should have sucked up the extra cost and gotten the Mac I wanted in the first place.
So, I'm going to try to write some more at work today, but if I were you guys I wouldn't hold my breath on reading anything new just now. I'm thinking I'll have to get the documents off my computer and re-format my hard drive, in a last ditch effort to fix the computer myself, and that will take a few days off of my schedule.
Wish me luck with the machine; for now, I'm trying not to think about it.

I followed her advice and got myself a bunch of softwares on my new laptop. Maybe that would help you in the future, assuming you get over this hitch.
Good luck, really. I know that whole business sucks.
