Finals Week Curse

Every finals week there seems to be some unlucky happenings in our lives, whether it be massive cold sores, multiple speeding tickets, or complete emotional breakdowns. Bad things always happen at this time. This semesters unlucky happening was a hurricane Katrina of a problem... Todd has been working on his research paper all semester (OK really the last two weeks and once in a while). He asked if I would edit what he has so far. I did what I could to clean it up. Just as Todd was going to save all his work,the computer froze completely and the computer fan starting sounding like Bessie's generator. It took all the patience we had, which could fit in mason jar, to not throw the thing out the window. We tried several times to reboot it, but it never recovered. One hundred dollars, seven point five hours of backing up files, and three very frustrated BYU-I student computer tech's later we still have a non functional computer. However, the good news Todd finished his paper and thus far I am cold sore free. Hallelujah!
