It snowed last night, 2-3" of wet stuff. I knew I would need to shovel in the morning because the snowplow driver would leave his usual damn at the end of my driveway. King woke me at 530am, so up I got. Looked outside. Swore. Decided to see whether I could get the day job computer to talk to my internet connection--they've been on the outs lately--just in case I decided to try to work from home.

As expected, couldn't get dayjob computer to connect. OK. Reattached cable to iMac. Jiggled keyboard to activate display.

Nothing.

So the weather Saturday is supposed to be decent--the snow predicted for that day apparently won't happen. I will likely be visiting the Apple store to drop off an iMac.

The day began bleak. But it got better. Thanks, Apple.
