I am SO fuckin’ PO’d at the moment

I was searching for a CD to reinstall an application tonight, and while I was trying to reach the CD rack, which sits on the most inaccessible corner of the two Formica/fiberboard shelves screwed into the wall above my desk, one whole side of the mounting tore completely off the wall and dumped EVERYthing—cable modem, router, dozens of CDs and floppies, and a shelf of manuals—onto the desk, the floor, and everywhere else they could skitter.  The router is hanging from the ceiling by one of its Cat-5 cables (I can’t unhook the cable without disconnecting T; that’s the port providing network access for her system, clear across the house.)  Fortunately the scanner, which sits directly below the shelving unit, had some things already stacked on it that protected the glass from breaking, or I’d be buying a new scanner.  (I could use a new scanner ’cos this one is eight years old and as slow as Christmas, but that’s beside the point.)  I think I did bust the battery door on my digital camera when it fell.

Before I can clean up, I have to figure out a new solution for shelving near the desk, ’cos I can’t do without someplace to put the router and cable modem at the VERY least.  Sod this for a game of soldiers.
