the crisis appears to be resolved
So it took like two hours and reinstalling the system program stuff, but my computer appears to be back to normal. The guy at the genius bar was very nice and kinda cute, (and he totally had Danny's early S1 hair, which is beside the point.)
He said the fan noise I've been hearing is nothing to worry about--though you couldn't hear it over the noise in the store, and back in my relatively quiet apartment it still doesn't sound right to me. I'm going to keep everything well backed up and try not to worry about it.
Right. So I'm both relieved and waiting for the other shoe to drop.
Now I *have* to work on my dissertation this afternoon, since I haven't at all in nearly a month.
