Am I crazy??

Would someone please tell me why it is that your computer or your car can be broken down, refusing to turn on, flashing bright lights at you, or on FIRE and the second you take it in to the repairman it works better than it ever has. Huh? HUH?

That's what happened today. Not only did I feel like an idiot, but the french man looking at my computer practically slapped a bright red sticker on my forehead that says "Hello, I'm a girl, and I'm American, please discount anything that comes out of my mouth." I tried to tell him, "listen buddy, my computer tells me I have fatal errors in five different programs and I've had the blue screen of death 4 TIMES since I got here. And I'm pretty sure somone is stealing all my private information. Oh and I saw SATAN in my screen saver the other day." Buutt, I think in French that translates to "Exscuse me monsieur could you please tell me how to turn on my monitor? Oh that's what that button does? Tee Hee! wow, you're smart. "

After a couple hours of cool down I still would be afraid to be alone in a dark alley with me, but at least I've calmed down enough to write a post without using foul language. Consider yourselves lucky.
