FML

I swear a fair amount, but I generally refrain from saying f***. I just don't like it. Today, however, I have said that particular word more times than I usually do in a week. Or two weeks. You see, yesterday I was on my laptop in the hotel before we went home, and suddenly, my computer shut off and wouldn't turn back on. However, it did come on after a few tries, and everything seemed to be fine except that iTunes said something was wrong with my audio configuration. Now this afternoon I turn it on, and neither of my USB drives are working, and neither are my speakers. I tried plugging in my iPhone...didn't show up. Neither did my camera, and neither did my memory card reader. Clearly, this means fewer blog posts until I either get this sorted out or get a new computer. I will be able to post from my grandparents' computer, but not every day. *sigh* I am so frustrated. Sorry for the rant, and I hope you're all having a much better day than I.

P.S. My next post will be the polishes I got to review from the Sinful Colors V-Day collection. They're very pretty, especially Glass Pink!

  1. Hm, that's odd...my mom's going to look at it tonight, so I hope it's
    something fixable!

  2. I know that Pink Forever and Beautiful Girl are re-releases, but I'm not
    sure about the others.

  3. Oh I remember having kind of the same problem last year. The thing is that I once plugged my ipod and then unplugged it without hitting the eject button on itunes. After that USB drives, camera, etc. nothing was working I had to shut down the computer and wait, and it would start as normal as before. But everytime i was plugging my ipod everything would start to not work again! I changed my ipod and I've never had this problem anymore.

  4. Ooh, I was just about to say what Kendall said. My computer did that once, and I had to uninstall all my drivers and update them. Took like all day because I was too stubborn and cheap to go a technician, but worked like a charm. I hope you can get it fixed soon!!

    And about the Sinful Colors, are any of them new to the line? I know some are re-releases, but I couldn't tell with all of them.

  5. Thanks for the tip! My mom's an IT technician for our local hospital, so
    she's going to check some things. It broke about a year ago and she
    reformatted it, though, so I'm not sure how many more times that will
    work... :/

  6. Might need to reformat or update your drivers or something! It might have overheated the first time it shut off.
