Chronicle of the Computerless, Day 2
So I am once again in the computer lab - this time in Seelye. I haven't made much progress in getting Lucinda up and functioning again, aside from:
-showing several SSFFSians that yes, it isn't working, having Madison poke at the problem, and noting that it now doesn't go to the white screen with the apple and the circle, but rather says at the intermediate stage with the OS9 style folder that started when I tried reseting the NVRAM and PRAM
-learning that
chocochan's brother is apparently Very Smart with computers, including Macs, and might have some insights.
-calling my father, who isn't a Mac person but is generally knowledgeable about computers. He didn't have any direct advice to offer, but gave me the e-mails of a couple of people from church who might have advice about my predicament.
I've also realized that many of the items on my to-do list involve having access to a computer. This will make it more difficult to complete my to-do list. At least there are many places on campus with computers, even if most of them are not up and about nearly as early as I am on weekends.
Capen Annex (with the SSFFS Library) has been re-keyed. This e-mail was sent to me ten minutes after I left the computer lab yesterday, and the Campus Center is closed today and tomorrow. This is annoying, since taking things to the library was one of the things I intended to do today. I went to Forbes instead, which was a lot of fun, but did not help in decreasing the number of books or the number of completed knitting projects sitting around my room.
Oh, I'm late for fencing. Bye.
