Death of Computers

In the last month or so, all of the computers that I/we have been using have given up the ghost. My Sharp MM20 from my 2004 had a hard drive failure; my 3 year-old AMD Athlon x2 desktop also had a hard drive failure; and the girlfriend's Lenovo Thinkpad T61, which is probably about 1.5 years old, had some sort of strange, hard-to-diagnose graphics failure. They're all jealous of the PS3 that I got a month or two ago.

In other news, I've been sleeping late and waking up early, which has resulted in four days of more-than-usual coffee consumption. For example, it is 12:38p and I have already had three cups of coffee and two 8.3oz Red Bull cans.

Here is an excerpt of a conversation the lady and I had earlier today:
me: I'm so tired.
plodder: mee too

me: Oh yeah? I've had two red bulls and three coffees. Hardest morning ever.

plodder: i have a headache.

me: Try some excedrin.
me: This conversation is shaping up like many I've had in college.
