Another bus no show, work projects

OK, one day was a bit funny. I mean, catching the next bus isn't the end of the world (although I would have preferred another 20-25 minutes of sleep instead of standing on the side of the street).
But a second day is enough to make my blood boil a bit. I waited for 50 minutes today (which should have been covered by the second bus that I caught yesterday. I finally caught a slug ride.
Another nasty email to WMATA.
On a work related note- I've had some better projects (more interesting and substantive). This definitely makes the days move along at a better pace.

Laptop lives, bus no-show

After getting a Dell person to troubleshoot my problem (even though my warranty is expired), it was determined that my laptop either had a bad graphics card or a motherboard. I tried the graphics card first since it was cheaper. I found a used one online and VOILA...my laptop lives again.

This morning the bus I catch to the metro station didn't arrive. Sometimes it varies by five or maybe ten minutes. The bus goes by every 30 minutes. So I stood there for about 35 minutes when the next bus comes by. Of course, everyone else that was waiting for the bus that didn't show was on this one too and I had to stand. How annoying.
