Begin fastidiously working on an important project with a crucial deadline.

MacBook logic board fails.  11 days out having warranty service.

Find out that grandfather has bladder cancer.

PowerMac G5 will not boot.  3 weeks out getting repairs

Filling falls out.  Dentist on vacation for 2 weeks.

Video card on PowerMac G5 goes out.

Order replacement without carefully looking to see that my 1st edition late 2003 PowerMac G5 takes AGP instead of PCIe like all the rest of them do.

Open replacement video card, utter “uh-oh”, and return replacement after paying shipping both ways and a restock fee.

Find out that no one makes AGP Pro cards that will work in my 1st edition PowerMac G5 anymore.

Scour the intarweb for used cards with thus far no success.

I cannot wait until February is over.  The rest of 2007 has to be better, right?
