I got my computer back today! It seems to work fine, and doesn't give me error messages anymore. I spent the early afternoon reinstalling programs and documents. Most of my MP3s were backed up on CD-R's, so I was able to get them back. One of my CD-R's was apparently corrupted or something, but, fortunately, there wasn't much important on it, so that was no big deal. After work, I'm going to have to organize my files, and make sure I don't have multiple copies of MP3s, which I'm pretty sure I do. I'm also going to download Netscape (which I pretty much never use, but like to keep on my computer just in case I need it), and set up a desktop.
In other news, I got my copy of the Minus Five's new In Rock CD. There's nothing on it that really blows me away, but it's a fun listen overall. Scott McCaughey has been releasing quite a bit of Minus Five material as of late, and we haven't heard much from the Young Fresh Fellows in years. On the other hand, I guess there's somewhat of a Fellows vibe to In Rock, since it's fun, upbeat rock music. I don't know. I do know that this is the first album released in 2004 that I've purchased. I wonder if any other worthwhile albums will come out this year. There's a new They Might Be Giants EP that I should probably pre-order tonight, two new Fuzzy Warbles discs from Andy Partridge, the re-issued Camper Van Beethoven albums (which I probably won't buy, but I'll put them on my Amazon wish list in case someone else wants to give them to me as gifts), and a collection of remixed Frank Black songs, but none of those really count as new albums as such. There have been some rumblings about a brand-new CVB album, which would certainly be cool.
Finally, read about the feud between Avril Lavigne and Hilary Duff. It's funny, because I hate both of them. By the way, doesn't Avril have really bad teeth? I thought when I first saw her on the TV that she was a heavy smoker, and I guess this is further evidence.
