I just sprang for an optic-fiber connection (called FIOS by Verizon -- apparently in blissful ignorance that, in several Latinate languages, fios means "wires"). Turns out that all their software clashes with mine, especially the brand-new Norton "internet security" package (which is at its happiest when inspecting your every move verrrrrrrrrrry slooooooooowly to assure there are no gremlins slipping through). Anyhow, it has thus far taken FOUR lengthy sessions with the phone-in Verizon techhies (who, let it be said, are unbelievably patient) to get...just about the same lousy performance I had with my old dial-up. (And I'll never get those 12-13 telephoning HOURS back...) Hugs, Justine Oh god, Aimee, do I EVER sympathize.

Hardware failures. I had my harddrive commit suicide last year. I -thought- I had backups. Apparently I'd thrown them out. Now, I have backups -everywhere-. Ah, yes. Hardware failures.

Apparently I’d thrown them out.

Now, I have backups -everywhere-.

I can don my Nick Cave t-shirt, and we can be overgrown angst-ridden teenagers together! My hair is currently Try-Hard Purple.

Feeling a trifle better today but the rate at which I'm ebbing and flowing is verging on ridiculous. Actually, I think I may have thrown out the last of the Manson t-shirts (I had three or four at one stage). I may just have to resort to the black hair dye. Perhaps your daughter and I could dye our hair black together? I think the opportunity would lose some of its coolness quotient for her if she was doing it with her mum's daggy friend.

But I'm glad you have Marilyn Manson t-shirts you can don to express your black funk and kinda scream at the world without having to make the effort of opening your mouth. If they don't work, I have an old ABBA t-shirt somewhere you can borrow - always does it for me. xx Sorry to hear you’re down.
