Subj : One step forward...

I had a day off of work and was tracing down a weird AC hum reverberating 
through our house. Turned out it was my subwoofer/pc speaker system on its 
way out, they were probably 10 years old at this point.

I replaced them with some cheapo speakers I had lying around, and decided to 
take the time to vacuum under my desk and dress the cables.

Of course, in the process of moving cables around, I damaged an HDMI cable 
running from primary my monitor to the PC. No problem, I thought, I have 
lots of HDMI cables lying around. Look at the monitor end to realize I'd had 
to buy a DVI to HDMI cable. Where am I going to find one of those? Ordered 
one on Amazon, and in the meantime ended up using my secondary monitor as my 
primary monitor with a spare analog to DVI adapter.

(My video card has one DisplayPort and one HDMI port. Why, I have no 
clue...)

This has got to be a grand conspiracy to get us to buy more cables.
