Not Helpful

So, since about friday of last week, I am been kind of a hinderance to my roommate.

And it is not anything intentional at all. First it all started when I tried to move her computer a bit and dropped her external hard drive on the table. And guess what? It doesn't work anymore at all. So, we had to send it out to get the information off the disk. And apparently there is 164 Gigs on it, so it is quite a bit of info that I may have lost for her. I felt so bad.

Then on sunday night, our internet stopped working. Well, not the whole thing but our Router was being dumb. We could get internet when we hooked directly up to the modem, so we tried to call in support. Which does not exist because we were off warranty by 4 months. So I came home from yesterday to find a desktop spread out all over the living room with a new wireless router. And Heather was just starting to install the system into her computer. Well, it was not a real simple procedure as it takes about 25 minutes to do. And when we were at about minute number 23, I bumped the power cord and cause power to stop flowing. So, start over number one. And next time when we were at minute 20, I did again.

It was actually kind of funny because it was completely unintentional. We joked about how I have been a major hinderance to her when all I have been trying to do is help her. So, I sat in our chair laughing. Then she asked how long I thought it was going to take her to finish the install. I guessed 17 minutes from that point, so she put me in a "time out" and I was not allowed to leave the chair. So, I was not able to "help".

Man, I feel like such a little child right now......but I am kind of enjoying it......
