New netbook...

...which does not connect to the internet via surfstick, error 633.
I am soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo fed up with computers.
Will probably off line for the next 3 weeks.

after trying to fix my canon pixma4700...

...which was not working, working, not working... always with a lot of nerves & time wasted thrown in...
I agree with this video and with this one .
After googling "canon b200" I can at least rest assured that I´m definitely not alone with my problem.
There´s loads of destruction videos of canon printers online...

As I cannot use my canon scanner lite 30 anymore just because the company doesn´t offer a driver for windows 8 I guess I´m not going to be a customer much longer.
Which is a shame becaue I loved all my "old" canons , a slr, a printer, a scanner...and all the new ones just keep making problems- from a backfocus to the b200 error.

Now I´m going to waste money on a new printer (the "old" one being 2 yrs old)  instead.

I was kind of thinking the same recently :) ...btw. in dutch it´s vlinder and in polish motyl

long weekend :)

started with the shock of a false electricity bill :(

3:30 in the morning...

...just got up and prepared food for the workday - which will start at six-  because I couldn´t sleeep anymore.
Went to bed at 8 yesterday evening cause I was completely knackered.
Switching to nightshift was no problem, I actually kind of like the schedule if it doesn´t last too long, but switching back always seems to be. Not a big one, but a minor annoyance.
Don´t know how people do it who work shifts all the time, I guess my system would go bust.

shifting...

...back to daytime. Kind of sorry, got to read a book finally (during breaks) and work seems to be more effective during nicht without daytime´s interruptions and distractions. Another week would have been fine by me :). Anyway, election day today, so Im´m off to the polling station.

FERNWEHATTACKE !!!!

aahhh...help !
