Server.
Glah. In addition to the stressing about potential pregnancy last night, I retyped my resume, because I have the haunting feeling that my job with Research International isn't going to be lasting much longer.
In the search for an empty plug to shove the lamp into, since Nephew was sick and the overhead light hurt his eyes, and the monitor light was hurting my eyes without other lighting, I managed to knock the plug for the power strip supplying the internet server on the home network out of the outlet. Woops. The thing crashed so badly the computer wouldn't even send to the monitor for four turn-on tries out of five, and then hung at the "is booting up" screen, the one with the clouds, and refused to budge. Adam started it in safe mode when he returned, and it hung at the Windows Is Booting Up screen.
After he recovered somewhat from the other drama, he decided to tear the network apart to fix things, and eventually wound up in bed at 3:33 am. (I checked the clock when he eased the door open and woke me up.)
Damn, but that's a bad crash.
