Technological Hijinks and a crashed cuckoo clock

This past week has been extremely frustrating with the technology around me playing games with me.  One day my coffee machine doesn't work.  I spend an hour on the phone with Jura Capresso customer service walking me through possible solutions.  None of them work.  I make arrangements to send it in for service.  They then tell me that the model is too old and they no longer service it.  I then look up a local repairman to take the unit to.  Right before I contact him, I plugged it in and tried to make coffee.  Of course it made perfect coffee all day long. Today, nonfunctional.  Arrrggh

I keep my music collection on an external hard drive.  2 days straight, I couldn't get it to power up out of the blue.  I plug and unplug it hundreds of time till it finally booted up and Windows recognized it.   I made another copy of it as backup.  It then worked for a week, till yesterday, it decides to not boot up again.  Just when I was about to permanently disconnect it last night, it boots up and is functioning perfectly. 

My alarm system was coming on each day at 5 am for no reason.  I finally decided to just turn it on and off each day.  I am now getting decent sleep with no 5 am alarm.

It really feels as if the technology around me is purposely messing with me to cause stress and attempt to put me off balance. 

What are the chances that 5 minutes after finishing this post, I pulled the weights on my cuckoo clocks and one came crashing off the wall.  I am now gluing it back together.  Perhaps it is not just the technology, but rather the reality itself messing with me.
