Failure with Thunderbird
When it rains, it pours. My Thunderbird isn’t co-operating with me now and that’s just my luck right now. Here I am trying to get every scrap of information I can out of my ever non-responsive POS computer and this happens. My profiles are missing, the restores I’m attempting are bugged and just when you think you got it all fixed… the folders are empty. I’m outraged, I’m tired and I’m still pissed at the Seahawks for throwing the game.
I feel like Data in that episode of Star Trek, “The Offspring”, where he tries and tries to help fix Lal but for every problem he solved, more came to take its place. They say it was a cascade failure, similar to these bouts of bad luck except that I won’t be so sad to see this pile of rubbish behind me.
And hey, if I’m even a bit lucky, I might just get my mail back sans a whole month worth of mail. Here’s hoping.
