Computer Broken.

My computer packed up on Saturday, hence the absence of blogging which may continue into this week. Saturday on the Easter weekend is a very inconvenient time for something to pack in as it is hard to get it repaired before the Tuesday. This is very frustrating, and I may have developed withdrawal symptoms. Jesus certainly picked a bad time of year to die, why do all his main life events appear to coincide with bank holidays?

The worst part though is that because my computer more or less stopped working completely, with no warning, I have not had an opportunity to delete anything of a 'sensitive' nature before taking my computer into the shop. Yes, 'sensitive' is a euphemism for 'pornographic'. It isn't that I am a crazed porn freak who has a Glitteresque pornucopia on my harddrive, but I challenge any male computer user who has broadband and access to google video to deny looking at some stuff from time to time. Not an excessive amount, no more than 15 minutes an hour day week but enough that I wouldn't want anyone else to be aware of it.

The annoying thing is that I was "in the zone" on Saturday and was in the mood to write a very long and funny post, something which only happens once a month and I can't just recapture it.

I recall reading about writer who lost his first novel (Garrison Keillor I think). He had thought it a good first effort but needed some work. By the time he had finished ringing round the lost property offices it was a brilliant novel. A month later it was the best thing he would ever write. Ten years later it outshone everything written in the English language.

Good luck with your computer.

PC failures suck. Hardfer than an Electrolux.

Hope you get it sorted.
