Even TechyDads Have Computer Malfunctions

My laptop is refusing to start. I’m writing this on my phone while my computer attempts to repair itself. Here’s hoping that it is successful and I will be able to use it soon.
UPDATE: After a while of repair, my computer is once again working. Not perfectly, but at least as well as it was before the crash.
My wife assumes that because it’s me, I can never be adversely affected by technology. So, when our HTPC overheated & cooked itself while playing a Blu-Ray on movie night the other night she was a little dumbfounded when I said we just had to go to bed.
