Today I got up at 6:30 and did ridiculous things for the sake of move-in, like being the sole person to go to to pick up all the 50+ pound boxes from the mail room for about an hour and a half because the guy who was employed to do it got frustrated with the system and basically ran away. (Yay! Thank goodness the building manager rescued me, I felt way weird handling everyone's mail.) Then I worked the front desk organizing things and trying to do what I could to keep move-in going smoothly. It worked, pretty much. Nothing blew up, because we did almost everything on paper (that's how screwed the system is right now.)
So, because everything went so smoothly, I went to take a nap. You guys have three guesses as to what greeted me on my laptop when I woke up.
Keep in mind here, the word of the day is Irony.
My computer is dead. Again. Horrific scrapey hard drive noises and non-booting bliss. So I called tech support, and my only minor victory (aside from the fact that, thank merciful goodness, classes don't start for another week) is that the tech support people aren't sending it to the same place that screwed it over last time.
Of course, this means that one of three Rescom people in the building is now trapped in the computer lab for the next week. Goshfreaking darnit. They're doing all the tours around the dorm right now, so they keep stopping in front of the door, and dozens of freshmen have stared in at me. I'm doing my best to look like I'm doing something important like hardcore coding and/or fixing of things, but I'm sure it's only a matter of time before my cover's blown.
Siiiigh. Freaking computers.
