May 17

Early to bed, early to rise. I like that saying. Too bad I don't like it enough to listen to it. I didn't get nearly enough sleep last night and was running on empty throughout the day. I wasn't tired enough to watch the Tigers come back (if you can even call it that) to beat the A's 11-7, though. Then there was the Lakers domination of Houston...which was sad. Not sad was the Red Wings beating the Blackhawks in game one of the Western Conference Finals, 5-2. Unfortunately I ended up passing out and missing the last 3 goals we scored. Haha. I got up just in time to realize I was running a tad bit late to Sunday dinner at Laura's. A wake up call, indeed. So I got up and drove out there, had another great dinner, and hung out until the end of the Orlando and Boston game...which BOSTON LOST! Haha. Sorry, I'm just not a Celtic fan...at all. At. All.

Kudos to the Magic for not choking. Now you get LeBron and the Cavs. Have fun with that.

Oh, and one more thing. I received a call after dinner from the Apple store. Apparently, they think the problem may be - drum roll please... - the power supply AGAIN. They ran some tests and may have pin-pointed the problem. It could have something to do with the video card and how it's wired. So, the plan is to install a new supply, run a few more tests, and give me a call to let me know when it's all done. And since it's been less than a month since I last brought it in, it looks like all repairs and parts should be free. Should be...but I'm holding out hope for now. At this point, I won't be satisfied with any answer until my computer is back in my room and I've left it on for a couple of nights with no technical malfunctions...period.

Smile tomorrow and something good will follow,

B
