Exact opposite with me. For months I've been coming homing dead and almost going right to bed. It's sad when it's 6:30 pm and the only reason you're up is that it just feels too weird to go to bed before 7. Then I'm up at 2 am and ready to go, though I usually linger until 3 or 4.


EDIT: I just realized that I should quit my job and become a baker. I'm certainly ready for the work hours. And then I could get donuts every day!!!
This sounds exactly like my pattern.... ....maybe we should open a bakery.

Of course! Hey, are you interested in working the night shift? We could start an international 24-hour donut shop!

After a whole day with a lot of swearing, I've managed to set up the wireless network and connect three computers and an iTouch.
If ever I have to do this again, I shall hire a teenager or something.

I'm sorry, Patricia. I know how you feel. I went through this exact same mess three years. After a day of following the "trivial" set-up which failed, I finally had it working and luckily it has worked ever since. I have absolutely no clue what I did to make it work so I refuse to consider replacing or upgrading anything for fear I'll have to do it again. Just shoot me now.

silly dog, that just means you're living in the wrong time zone ! you should move to paris. then you'd be on a much more normal schedule, and you wouldn't even have to become a baker. but you could still become a baker if you wanted to ; we love cake.

Can I manage to get the wireless set up? Despite following all the instructions to the letter it won't work, except with the ethernet cable.

ah, computer problems. easily the most infuriating, frustrating thing to deal with. i'm currently pretending that i don't get the BSOD several times a week (sometimes twice in the same day) because i just can't face trying (again !) to track down the problem*. you have my utter, absolute sympathy. i'm glad you finally got it sorted, anyway.



*known as the "ostrich" school of computer repair. the irony is that i'm actually the computer expert / tech support for several of my friends, and in fact i spent several hours last week installing various anti-malware apps on my neighbor's computer to get rid of the really annoying adware she had managed to pick up. i guess it just goes to show everything is relative.

Sorry to hear about the 505's injury. Are replacement parts available?

Those 505s are pretty popular. In your opinion, how do they stack up against the Kindle?
