Andy’s coming to pick us up in a half-hour.  I was right about the transformer thingy.  It’ll work for about two minutes after I plug it in, then it dies.  I pull it out, wait a minute or two, put it back in and the same thing happens.  Fucking thing.  But at least I know it’s that and not something else.  The laptop itself is okay.  Anyway, I kept plugging it in and unplugging it over and over after I woke up this morning to at least get it charged back enough so’s I could make sure it wasn’t totally dead.  It had gone down to 0% last night and wouldn’t even let me turn it on at all, but now it’s up to 14%.  Whoo-hoo, it just hopped up to 15%!!  Fucking thing.  And the really crappy thing is that I won’t even be able to find a new one today no matter how hard I look, because today (Nov. 1st) es un dia de fiesta here.  (It’s All-Saints day or something, I dunno ‘cuz I’m not Catholic.)


I think I remember the name of that magazine now, that I did the interview for… it’s Rock Deluxe.  I’m pretty sure that’s it.
