Fried, and Fried Again

For the second time in about two weeks I fried a processor.  Both times were exactly the same: I touch my mouse, I feel a huge spark, and my computer freezes and then shuts off.  Today was a bigger spark than the last time, and other people actually smelt the burn coming from the computer.

I have no idea why this happens, how I’m so full of static, but I have been grounding myself each and every time I sit down now.  I also have a new mouse, just in case.  Oh, I also have a headache, but I think that’s due to having to set up my computer - again.

This time I have a completely new model, so I have to slave my hard drive to another machine and hopefully get all the data off of it.

I love a fresh start, but prefer to have my fresh starts more spread out.  That and being taken out of the loop for most of a day (when you expect to be in it) really drives you mad.
