I started it by calling the Dell Support line to get my computer fixed. The hard drive will not mount properly and I end up at the blue screen of death every time I try to turn my computer on. So I took it to Best Buy before Christmas - they said, 'yup, hard drive is dead, we'll send it to Dell for you.' Some time after Christmas - still no computer, they said, 'Dell won't fix it since it came from us, we're sending it back to you still broken.' So, 8 weeks later, I call Dell and after 45 minutes of "trying" things, they agree its broken and will be sending me a new hard drive overnight. Whew - what a pain! But at least a new one is on the way today...
Then I step out of my apartment in my dress slacks and boots. As I start down the first flight of concrete stairs, the heel of one boot gets hooked in the opposite leg's slacks and I did a nose dive down the rest of the stairs until my head was stopped by the railing at the end. I actually saw stars. Now I have a nice goose egg on my forehead in the shape of a narrow vertical slice of railing and multiple other bruises and swelling on my knees and shins. Swell... but no concussion!

Oh, Emily.....
I'm so sorry to hear about your rough day! Especially the crappy computer problems. The first computer I bought out of college was a dell and I had TONS of problems with it. I swear if I ever have enough money to buy my own computer again (I have a school laptop I can take home with this job!) that I'm going to buy a MAC!!!!!
P.S. someone gave me a cold...and I'm not sure if it was him or one of my high schoolers :(
