Because the perfect way for the universe to say HOLIDAY'S OVER is for my iMac to die. MACS ARE WONDERFUL, they said. MACS NEVER HAVE PROBLEMS.

Uh huh.

Thankfully, I can get by academically by using my laptop, but it does mean I can't access any of my previous notes or documents, and I can't use the internet in my room. Because the campus wireless doesn't extend to the Maples building.

As you may imagine, I am in a rather shitty mood right now.

...hahaha OH I AM A GENIUS. I'm so used to only using wireless on my laptop that the idea of unwiring my Mac and hooking the EeePC up instead simply didn't occur to me.

I am just SO PISSED OFF that I bought a brand-new Mac and it's already decided to chuck a hissy fit requiring me to lug it to be repaired. Lug! In my arms! In its enormous box! Won't that be fun.

PISSED OFF is fair enough!

*elects not to get a mac* At least a PC you can open up and take the bits out.

I like my Mac! In general! And most other Mac owners I know are ecstatically happy with their computers. I guess Macs don't like ME.

Some consolation: the handful of fics I am currently actively working on are on my laptop, safe. I suppose EPIC DATA WIPING is one way to solve the epic-backlog-of-WIPs problem? Please don't be wiped, data. Pleeeeease.
