fanciful_museI am building a new computer system, with an AMD Athlon Phenom II 3.4Ghz quad core processor and all kinds of nice things. I spent the entire afternoon on Monday putting it together. I turned it on, and...nothing happened. The fans came on. The lights came on. Nothing else happened. It was perfectly installed with static wristband in place and nothing that wasn't supposed to be touched, was.
I stripped it down to just the motherboard and the CPU. The system speaker should've been screaming at me. Not a sound.
Motherboard DOA. Sent back for a replacement.
In other news, I'm going through raging hormone storms today which are causing me to pee a lot, feel out of sorts, have no appetite nor need for sleep.
I haven't had a period in going on 6 straight months. I've been in perimenopause for a couple of years now, marked by highly erratic periods, some of which were quite heavy. The last one I had was Winter Solstice. If I go an entire year, I'll officially be in menopause. Oh joy. When my grandmother went through it, she went nuts and locked herself in her bedroom for a year. I am hoping not to be so bad, considering that I am on antidepressants already.
