Like any other day.

I decided to replace computer at my home. Ok, to make you people jealous. I have a tablet pc, my 5 yr old son a laptop and almost 3 yr old a PC. My wife has right on all these.:) No, I am not related to Sultan of Brunei. It's just that, I am fond of and lucky when it comes to gadgets.
Coming back to replacement, the PC had been giving lot of problems. It doesn't detect wireless router, my cdma phone, hangs up frequently, restarts for no reason,.. I have neither patience nor time nor skill to fix the issues. So replacement instead of repair. Ok,ok, I tried replacing motherboard, ram, graphics card in various combinations.
And new (or not so new, because, I am replacing a P4 system with celeron) system arrived. WinXP loaded, ATI graphics card from old system inserted into new system. Drivers loaded, system restarted, system fails to find OS,..the story is getting tedious. Now I started believing in Vaastu (Indian Feng Shu). The story will restart tomorrow morning.
About 10 days ago, I had fever. And not-so-learned doctor diagnosed it to be Typhoid. And I recovered in a day. Either the fever was not related to typhoid or I am super human. I am losing respect for doctors who casually drop names of big diseases to make the patient feel more melodramatic than he/she should.
My left hand is sort of numb these days. I refuse to go to doctor. When my wife indicated symtoms to a doctor, he said it could be spondylitis, whatever that means. What next, Cancer? Even that's ok. AIDS isn't.;) I don't want to be shunned by society.:)
"Seven Years in Tibet" is half complete. I should take more time and complete the nice book. But then the concept of "loss of productivity" comes into picture.
What else? Enough rambling for today.
