I was a lonely teenage bronkin buck with a pink carnation and a pick up truck, but I knew I was out of luck…

Nothing bums me out more than something I’ve come to rely upon not working. Zephyr crashed over the weekend, and I am very sorry to say that it’s not the new computer’s fault. If it were I could just return it. Unfortunately I’ve got bad RAM (from Zeke) and the G3/300 PowerLogix accelerator is screwy. Presently I’ve neither the RAM nor the speed to run Digital Performer, my music recording software. This is likely the same issue that forced Zeke from the stage, but in that respect what’s done is done. Zeke had a lot of wear and tear from previous ownership anyway. I don’t feel badly about acquiring Zephyr.

However, I feel awful about not having a music recording studio. I was planning on getting a new Power Mac, true, but not until this autumn or winter. There are way too many expenses on the radar right now to push that forward, so unless I can find a way to fix what I’ve got, it’s going to be a tuneless summer. That’s epitome of despondency for me. I’m sure my spirits will rally tomorrow because I’m buoyant by nature and easily distracted. (Is that a coin? Oooh, shiny!) Today, I’m mopey.
