Modest is an understatement..

It's well known that my household and swanky celebrations.. ieValentine's day in fine restaurants don't mix.. well there was to be no such attempt this year, for more reasons than one. About a month ago we thought we'd go to a nice but not too swanky Italian restaurant.. then perhaps just go straight to the second place we went last year, where we spent the evening and had stinky cheese. Then it became a nice meal at home.

That's ok. Not so big on the partic holiday anyway.. but it's nice to have a good dinner and wine and stuff. It would be even more good if we could er... listen to music that we choose and watch something afterwards but THAT'S NOT GONNA HAPPEN.

It would be nice to not have a computer that persists in being dead, oh by the way did I tell you the computer died.. and did I tell you the fix that was supposed to help didn't help and now there's another problem? Well, the computer died.. and did I tell you the fix that was supposed to help didn't help and now there's another problem.

Now it won't even start up.. we're aspiring to getting the blue screen of death now.

In other news we went on some nice walks this weekend. Now there's something that not having a working computer makes you do.
