The A/C Fun
Well, time for a little A/C update. Last week, I just did without the A/C—it wasn’t worth it to me to mess with it, and it wasn’t that hot. Well, okay, at the end of the week, it was still pretty doggone hot. [I mean, right now, it's 26C outside. That's pretty uncomfortable.] When I got home tonight, it was so hot in my bedroom that my TiVo’s internal temperature was at 50C, which is 12C above where it normally was in the old apartment. When I saw that, I decided that I had to come down and put the A/C back on.
It’s a lot cooler in here right now—downstairs, the TiVo was 45C when I turned the A/C on, and it’s already down to 41C. I imagine that the upstairs is similarly cooler, which is good—I was sweating while lying directly under the fan. Now, I fully expect to wake up in the morning with ice covering the coils of the A/C. I can deal with that—I have spare towels, and with the Hurricane coming, it won’t get terribly hot in here tomorrow. I just need it to be cool to sleep. Now, maybe it’ll be cool enough to do that tonight—I have a full day ahead of me tomorrow.

I still hate computers.
As I just noted on [rocksmyfaceoff.info]—where you can always check to see if I know the site’s down, rather than sending me an email, IM, or calling me on the phone —I’m going to hold off on the backup-reload-restore process …
