fish can drown

[meelie]

Pretty often, not every morning, but often, I buy a Spring Valley juice of some kind. It's my favourite juice, it comes in a glass bottle and the inside of the lid contains 'Liddle Facts', stupid random facts that range from the bizarre(about animals usually) to the self promoting(about how you can splash Spring Valley juice in water to add flavour!). Todays Liddle Fact is:
No. 102: Fish can drown.

Today, I forgot my lunch at home after getting up early to make it, I got rained on on my way to the train station, when the train arrived at the station water sluiced off the front as it arrived at the platform and soaked me and today, oh today, I have to take my iBook in for service a-fucking-gain. At least this time I'm pretty sure it's not the logic board. Yeah, this time I'm pretty sure it's something worse.

and it's only 8.20am. and it's Monday. Dammit.

There's something worse than the logic board ? I'd have thought that was the single most expensive component...

Logic boards are actually covered by a special thingy because they've had so many fail. And the logic board failing doesn't affect the hard drive. They just pop they crappy one out and pop a new shiny one in. I've gone through 4 logic boards. The problem this sime seems to be with the actual drive, which makes me worried that I'll lose all my stuff, as I couldn't get it to work long enough to make an up to date back-up :(
