Where does it go?

When I went to my sister’s place last week, I was very excited because I knew there would be a night where we would all be sitting around with our respective laptops. I could ask questions about things, and we could share funny other things. It’s a geek-challenged person’s dream to be able to hang out with her own little IT department.
Well, when my BIL directed me to a YouTube video I realized there was something missing. My speaker had a big X over it. It said that I had no sound system program thing in the laptop.
Zero volume control??? Really? It was there when I left my house? It’s not like it’s like my car keys or something, where I could just mis-place it. What the heck? Why am I feeling like the technology gods are mocking me??
My BIL looked at it and couldn’t figure it out. HUH?!? I don’t know that I have ever stumped him before.
So…sure enough…when I got home on Friday the speaker was back to normal.
Of course NOW I can’t find that YouTube video he wanted me to watch.
Bummer!! All I know, is I rarely use the sound in my laptop but when I didn’t have it…it was missed.
Now I need to learn where to chain it up the next time we go on a playdate together.
