So I am going to post about Tuesday but not now.... I am going to jump a few days.... Starting Wednesday!

Wednesday - The Day My World Turn Upside Down!

After a long day at work I came back to my house to a very sad reality. My laptop was not acting right. I had no clue what was wrong! I was good to it for over a year! I thought we were close and could talk about any! But this was so sudden! I had no clue what to do! I went through a moment of denial!

Thursday and Friday - The Long Days.

I was really distant from the laptop for these two days! I figured if I just didn't deal with the situation it would just go away! But that didn't help! If anything it made it worst!

Friday Night - Deal With It Head On!

I got my laptop, owner's manual, and tools all together and figured I could only make the situation worst and then be able to justify buy a new laptop (better one even?) or I could actually fix it! I really didn't want it to come down to this (I already had offers to borrow two laptops and I thought hmmm I could hold out till the end of the semester to deal with my laptop) . But then I decided I had to fix it! I had an online class which I had things already written up or downloaded to my laptop!

I had my laptop in pieces. But in the end all I needed was canned air to clean out the fan! (Which cost less then 5 dollars!) That worked and I left it here all weekend to relax. Once home I noticed the laptop was running really slow! So in pieces it went again, I had not put both memory cards back in all the way! Which means really really really slow laptop! Got it back in place did a happy dance then turn it on.....and nothing! Then the screen started up and faded in and out of color! And I cried! (not really but a little!) Then back to pieces it went. The screen was not totally plugged in. Put everything back together then happy dance! Turned it on and the screen was working, but then the keyboard wasn't working.... In pieces Mr. Laptop went again.

Finally after all the dances, cries, and extra pieces later, my laptop is up and running! I think it is even better then it was working when I first got it!

Hopefully tomorrow after classes I will have time to update you on how my classes went/are going!

Have to go finish some homework for now!
