Rainy and quiet, it is.

I set up a program yesterday that lets me use the same mouse and keyboard across three different computers. Once I finally got it sorted, I drove across town and got some more memory for one of the machines. I've needed to do for a while.

I got back, clicked the RAM into place and rebooted. There was a ferocious clicking noise coming from the computer. It sounded like there was a hamster stuck in it. A quick google search informed me that, "A clicking hard drive can be a symptom of several different hard drive problems, all of which indicate hard drive failure." :/ The clicking has subsided but it picks back up whenever I run any tools to check the hard drive. When I put my hands on either side of it, the clicking stops. It's completely bizarre.

So today I'm saving information and reinstalling the operating system. The original hard drive on teh computer, this is my third failed drive for the year. Yargh.

It's been a lazy weekend, otherwise. It's raining and... there's nothing but time to read, play guitar and reinstall operating systems :p

I had a good week trading. I dove in the shallow end early in the week and got a bonk on the head. On Wednesday, gpjpy finally moved away from the resistance it's been testing for the last couple weeks. I traded it during the Asian and London sessions on Th and Fr and ended the week +7%.

I'm going with my mom tonight to hear Audrey's choir concert. She's been assigned two solos. I'm told one of the solos is apparently one of the first compositions ever composed by a woman. I don't know the date, but it allegedly has no set key and there were never any lengths ascribed to any of the individual notes. So it's basically just a series of different pitches to be sung at the speed the singer prefers. It should be interesting.

It was too wet for riding this and yesterday morning so I'm a little restless. I might just take a nap. I think that's exactly what I'll do :)

Happy weekend.
