I think I have pissed the universe off *somehow*.

First, there's the thing with my computer -- luckily I only went four days with no internets, but I still don't *have* it and it's going to need a new fucking hard drive and who knows how much labor cost...

Second, there's the thing with my chair and the tilt not working. And I have no clue when *that* will be fixed. And until it is, I'm terribly uncomfortable and also in danger of smashing my foot yet again because I'm positioned horribly.

Last night, there was a cricket invasion. One came out while my roommate was gone, which Kitty of Awesomeness missed for a while because she was cutely sleeping but then pounced on; one apparently came out overnight, because my roommate woke up to KoA standing guard over a dead one (which is why she is dubbed KoA, even though she does have a habit of scratching on my couch)

...and then one today that somehow wound up ON MY CHEST IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FUCKING DAY (seriously, we go to toilet me and my aide goes "o.O don't move" and I go cross-eyed because there's a GIANT FUCKING BLACK BUG ON MY BOOB STARING UP AT ME AUGH.

And then we found a black widow in the kitchen.

>.<

Who the fuck did I piss off and how do I fix it? Gah.

... heard back from the tech people. Hard drive is definitely kaput. They will need to replace the HD, reinstall the OS, and reload whatever data they are able to salvage from the old HD.

(I was going to post about ways to make cross-stitch functional again [summary of situation is that my eyes are too bad and I can't hold the canvas any closer than belly-button distance, besides which the actual stitching hurts my wrists] but maybe, between computer problems and the service dog, I should sell the stuff I have. :/ sigh.)

On the bright side, I have temporary kitty. \o/ (Roommate's cat, who's been staying with her ex, but is over for a bit of Necessary Kitty Time for both of us [roommate's sister just died, albeit not unexpectedly, and her other sister is a fucking bitch].) Said kitty is currently hiding in one of my bookcases, but she's adorable and quiet and is, I am told, generally a lap cat. Technically my lease does not allow cats or dogs, but I am pondering whether or not to try to wheedle an exception.
