Don't ask me how...
...but I have somehow misplaced the only power adapter that still works for my Powerbook. I had it at work yesterday; I unplugged it and (I'm sure) packed it in my backpack to take home. But when I got home, I couldn't find it, so I assumed that I had not managed to actually get it into my pack yesterday.
Sadly, it's not in the office, either. So either I took it out of my pack as soon as I got home, but set it down absent-mindedly, or...gremlins ate it. I dunno. Whichever, it's annoying, because I have 14 minutes of battery life left, so I'm having to use my desktop computer at work (something that I really never do).
In short, I am out of sorts, and feeling decidedly stupid.
The pile of much-overdue grading that I'm racing to finish isn't really helping my frame of mind, either.
(Of course, if I'd done the grading last night, instead of watching "The U.S. Poet Laureate," "Stirred," and "Enemies Foreign and Domestic," I wouldn't be frantically trying to finish it now. Old-school Bartlet was apparently more important than satisfactory job performance.)
