lets see in the last 3 weeks.

a 400GB HD failed. lost all but the family photos. (300GB of downloads poof)

my Logitech MX Revolution died when the charger stopped, well, charging.

the replacement HD we got for the 400gb (a 1tb Samsung) is making those clicking noises we all hate.

I dropped a meat cleaver on my foot, cutting across my big toe to the bone.

A simple service call to see why the heating furnace was leaking water from the condenser, the tech takes one look at the heat exchanger and states the welds gone and slaps a condemned notice on it. his firm quote us $6000 for replacement - tho I find out that part has a lifetime warranty from our neighbor who's exact same unit just failed... under the warranty program while they can't repair it, they'll discount a new furnace for you.. $2000 tho.

now before you all think my life is reaaaaaallly bad, things are looking up again. I won a voucher from here on the where is contest... Logitech sent me a brand new MX and the furnace had to have a pressure test as part of the warranty claim - which it passed with flying colours. the 'parted' weld was just dirt.

oh and my foot's healing. still aching, but I can walk on it now....
