Mi Computadora

So after much procrastination, I finally took my computer to a place to have it looked at. The guy confirmed my suspiscions that the hard disk was dead and that the only thing that could be done would be to replace it. He then tried to look at the hard disk, and I realized that besides the cost of a new one down here plus a new operating system, that I probably knew as much about computers as he did.

He told me the hard disk could be replaced but that they did not have one there and it could be difficult to find one for my computer (since it is so old). I proceeded to tell him my computer ës una mierda¨y que ¨no vale la peña¨. He laughed and asked if that was all the spanish I had learned here in BsAs. I told him yes.

Because electronics are SO expensive down here, I will have to wait for my return to the states to get a new computer. So in addition to the ¨Keep Carrie Fed¨fund I am running, there is now also the ¨Help Carrie buy a new computer¨fund as well.

Here is a link again to my photos on Facebook. Hopefully it works for ya´ll this time!
