Damn you, Windows Media Player!

All I wanted to do this morning was sip coffee, listen to Mozart and blog.

This is my favorite time of the day, and I get very pissed if I'm interrupted during this ritual. Especially the Mozart part.

Take away my coffee. Turn off my internet connection so I can't blog. But don't fuck with my Mozart.

I. Love. Mozart.

When I started the computer this morning, the Windows Media Player said it wanted to upgrade. I agreed and clicked "update". No problem.

For the next 20 minutes the ZoneAlarm firewall goes crazy - I had to approve at least 15 suspicious actions.

And now, NONE of my music players work... including the @#$%ing Windows Media Player. The damn thing keeps wanting to verify my copy of Windows OS, and no matter how often I tell it to validate, it does nothing except look at me like I'm an idiot.

To be fair, I am an idiot.

I'm an idiot for expecting to sip coffee and listen to my LEGAL COPIES of Mozart in peace!

DAMN YOU WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER!!!! I have a 100% legal copy of Windows XP - just verify it so I can listen to the greatest composer of all time and pretend, just for a few minutes, that my life isn't totaly mediocre.

This problem has blown my whole morning.

I deeply resent Microsoft saying I'm not good enough to listen to Mozart on my own computer because they suspect I'm using an illegal copy of their OS.

I don't want anything to do with those wankers in Redmond anymore.

Ubuntu, here I come.
