And I would call it living hell. [:D]

Screaming brats at 2am is a really good way to get me murderous. Heck, I get enraged when some tadpole in the mall gets whiney.

Ordinarily, I'd agree with you. In spite of providing two of my own terrestrial megavertebrate spawn for this ecosystem, I grimace at whines of other children. My own kids don't get under my skin in the same way others do. It's cliche but true-it's different when they're your own kids.

I'm pretty sure it is a genetically encoded survival trait. Else, homo sapiens would long ago have died out ... no surviving children. [:D][:D][:D]

18 = long day?

Sorry, with a 2yo in the house that is SOP. We get up at 0400. He has breakfast and then sunders off to bed with Mom. I get my 1 - 2 hour of WitPAE in depending upon my exercise routine. Then get him ready for school, lunches packed (he and I), drop him to school 0730 and then to the office 0800. 1730 depart office, dinner, evening family walk, bath time, and then bed time for 2 yo at 2100 hrs. Dad gets some quality time with Mom until 2300 hours. recycle.

no sympathy from me. [:D][:D][:D]

This, my friend, is what one would call a "life".

Yes it is. As I mentioned to someone else earlier; it isn't happening the way I would have planned it, but then again I wouldn't change a thing about it either.

BTW, apparently the bridge for HMS Belfast collapsed today in London on Thames...

OMG! I was only walking over that bridge six months ago! I totally had a lucky escape there! I wonder how much the newspapers would pay for my brush with death story?

Not as much as mine, since I was there in August and therefore it's less time ago than you. So [:'(]

You guys really had a close call... [:D]

Steam vaporizers, steamy bathrooms and (especially) cold morning air (outdoors) helped most with that for us. On one occasion, we had to resort to an intermediate-acting steroid injection, but boy that took care of it in a jiffy.

Good luck!

That is almost a spitting image of our routine. 0400, not so much... more like 0600-0700... He doesn't go to school yet, only 17 months.

Have you tried this:?

1. Go into device manager
2. Select the External SuperDrive (should have a yellow exclamation mark)
3. Right click SuperDrive, select "Update Driver"
4. Select "No, not this time"
5. Select "Install from a list or specific location"
6. Select "Don't search. I will choose driver to install"
7. Select "USB Mass Storage Device" (do not select External Super Drive)
8. Click Finish
9. Now you will see your optical drive be recognized by Win7, but it is not yet functional. Go back to device manager and select the super drive (probably labeled external optical drive, or perhaps usb mass storage device).
10. Repeat Steps 1-6.
11. When you get back to your choices, now you can select "Apple SuperDrive"



Nik! You're a genius! It worked! Thanks!!!

So having google-fu is equivalent to genius now?!! Mensa here I come! [:D]

It does remind me of the old Bud Light commercials with the "Real Men of Genius" theme. [:D]

Then again, my wife often tells me she married me because I was able to fix her computer speakers so she could hear, "You've got mail." [:D]
