Great Way to Start the Day

My work computer is the devil. I am not kidding. Lucifer himself has come back to earth as my computer and he's going to wreck havoc. Starting with my sanity, apparently.

This happens about once a week: I'll shut down my computer after a long day, and hightail it out of here. When I arrive at work the next morning (or sometimes after a long weekend), a stupid box will be open on my computer that reads, "Windows is shutting down." Yeah, ALL WEEKEND.

And, that's what I arrived to this morning. Fine. I shut down the computer manually, waited a bit, and rebooted the Bastard of the Underworld. This is what happened next:

I yelped, grabbed the camera for documentation (obviously), and shut it down. Again. I may have kicked it once or twice. Finally, after TWO MORE reboots, I was able to log in to the system without incident. Things started to move along. The virus shield popped up. My Audrey screen saver glided into view. And then:

I want to go home.
