Woe Is My Computer

I've not been on the internet much, for a couple of reasons, since I got home.
Reason number one: modem. Man, modems are not suitable for what I like to do on the internet. Namely, download music, upload photos, generally not sit on my ass waiting for hours at a stretch. So I simply check my email, the one thing where speed difference isn't noticed, and leave.
Reason number two: my retarded computer. Well, it's not retarded. I'd hate to hurt its feelings by implying that it is defective in some way, but the fact that I have to loosen screws on the back of the computer simply to get it to power on is a little cumbersome. I believe that the empathetic among you would agree. However, once I've convinced the Gods that it's time for my computer to power up, it purrs like a kitten and I've got nothing to complain about in the world. At least, computer-wise. And generally complaining about everything is a bit tedious, even if you do have a blog and you think the whole world cares. Still tedious.
The other side benefit of having my computer back online is that soon, I'll be able to put my latest album up on the internet, for everybody to listen to, if they so desire. I was going to write, "for your listening pleasure," but that might possibly be presumptuous. You might hate it. Or you might think it's not easy to listen to, but think that that's a good thing. Far be it from me to limit the possibilities. Anyway, it's recorded and produced by Latif Learned, so it sounds really good.
