Sad, depressed, out of sorts
The old as dirt 1998 laptop that my work so graciously provided for me has died. It won't recognize the hard drive. Now I will no longer be able to access the internet from my hotel room. Why a computer company would send their employee halfway across the world with one of their most obselete computers is beyond me. I can go down to the business center here at the hotel to access, but only during their business hours... uggh. How am I going to download my digital pictures? How can I ftp stuff to my site? I'm so mad and depressed. It's weird to think that something so small could make me monumentally sad, but here I am. A million miles away from home, cut off from communication.

My work doesn't allow me to access my "home" email, and it won't allow access to any instant messaging either. So both of those are out of the question. Unless we can do something about the laptop situation, it looks like it's business center for me. So any of you who have written to me at texas.net, please be patient. I can't answer as quickly as I'd like to.

In other news... we went shopping yesterday... I bought a saree and some silks. And some books. I'll post about them tomorrow, when I'm not so upset.
