Just when the days were starting to get wonderfully, acceptably long.... we're gonna hit daylight savings again. Which... yay for even longer days but, well, you know the rest.
SIGH.
And this is the one where we lose an hour and then everything gets extra messed up for a while.
As opposed to the one where we gain an hour and then everything gets messed up for a while.
(Or do I have that backwards? Sigh)
Whoops. Double Whoops!
I have an (older) Apple laptop, and some of you who do as well, may know the frustration of the charger cords. They are absolutely the weak point of these devices and constantly fray and break. Especially, it seems, for me, probably due to the angle of my cord compared to where it has to plug in and where I spend most of my time. So because this part breaks so much, I get tired of paying the $100 for the replacement I know isn't going to live all that long. Last time I got a replacement I tried to fortify the break point, but it still went. And then I ordered a slightly cheaper one off of Amazon. It didn't come from apple, but arrived with all apple branding, so... I figured it was real enough. *shrug* It frayed as well, and this time the protective coating was only slightly split so I left it for a while, intending to get some electrical tape to seal it up for a while. Which is why I was not so happy to hear and see it spark when I went to plug it in...
