Good news and bad news

Bad news: Computer still broken. I picked it up, supposedly fixed, this afternoon…brought it home, danced a jig o’glee, plugged it in, turned it on, and…nothing. Zip. Zilch. Nada. Working the exact same as when I brought it in for repairs. I called the shop, who claimed it was working fine when they fixed it that morning (the battery/adaptor needed to be replaced), and that I was welcome to bring it in to get a look-see: except the power had blown in the strip mall where the store is, as well as in the street, so even if I brought it in there would be no way to check to see if the power was working.

Yay.

I dropped it off, along with the two powercords used to (usually) power it, again and am apparently going to get it worked on first thing in the morning. I want to personally SEE the damn thing charging before I bring it home again.

Sigh. The good news?

I’ve been accepted into grad school!
