Oh, yes....... it did happen again!!!!

Another computer crash.

Or as I affectionately call it, a cyber enema!

I just finished a half of grapefruit and my little brain remembered something about grapefruit and medications.  So, I Googled it.

I go to a few sites....one is NEVER enough for me.  I hit another and up pops this site for porn videos.  Then a pop-up, 'you have to install such and such'.  I keep hitting cancel....CANCEL......CANCEL ....and they keep popping up. 

I shut down the computer.

I reboot and the blue screen of death pops up....one I've never seen before.  I knew we were screwed.

I followed the instructions on the blue screen and NOTHING.

Surprisingly, Brody said he would call Dell.  (Who entered his body between the time he left for school and the time he returned?) I'm still in shock that he wanted to try this.  It is SO out of character for him.  He isn't usually long on patience.

I told him to clear it with his father first.  I wasn't taking responsibility for not being able to bring this thing back from the dead!!! 

Dad gave the green light and amazingly Brody brought this thing back.  He was on the phone about an hour and a half with Dell, even had to wait for a return call and he did it with very little complaining!  I am still in shock!

The only thing that survived was the Recycle Bin (why does it keep that stuff???) and all of Brody's stuff on the external drive. 

I've been through this before....I'll survive....but I know there are some pics I would have liked to have kept.

The only problem I'm having now is that I can't download anything, like Google toolbar or AVG anti-virus, but Mike assures me he can fix that stuff.

Maybe I should start to back stuff up, huh?
