I have rebooted my computer

I have rebooted my computer 5 times this morning at work. It looks to have stabilised now, about 2.5 hours after I got here. My job is the kind that cannot be done without computers. If I was in a philosophical mood, I would was lyrically how reliant we now are on these machines, on email to communicate and the like. It would lead to questions on whether progress had unacceptable costs, how email removes human interaction on one hand but enhances it on the other.

But I've got 30 minutes before my Cantonese lesson, which I have done no revision for, and we've banked up with all the work from this morning. So I'm in a bad mood and hate computers. Not in that order. Plus I'm off the see the purple Jehovah's Witness tonight and need to pick up the tickets. He'd better be good or there will be trouble at Tamar tonight.
