If I don't laugh I'm going to cry.

Within 24 hours not only have I lost an item that took me an entire month to get on Neopets due to a glitch, but the primary computer is broken. Why is the primary computer broke? Because of an internet explorer update! The OS won't load (WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN ME SAFEMODE?) and the diagnostics I ran (F12 FTW) indicate that whatever happened to the software there is no way in hell I'm going to be able to fix it myself. So we'll take it to the shop tomorrow. I think I'm a little closer to pulling my grandmother over to the firefox side of the force. I'd rather bomb IE from orbit than use it on a computer.

Thankfully I hadn't yet changed any of the internet defaults on that computer's predecessor. So I can get online, but not much because I'd happily put my fist though any computer right now. It was a stroke of luck that happybox and boomstick weren't connected when the computer got borked.

The trip to New Jersey is going to be a disaster. An epic disaster. I'm leaving at 4am on wed. and things are already going wrong.

You know what? I don't fucking care anymore.

LBC, if I die my hard green notebook has a list of passwords. Could you tell the people in my E-address book that I'm dead if I die? I don't have high hopes for the outcome of this trip.

my computer died on me about less than a week after i bought it after putting memory in... i did put the memory in upside down or something, but still, i dont think it should have broke. the tech support guy took forever to come and when he came and fixed it it didnt even work. so frustrating. i like firefox too. =).

This computer is only three months old, at least yours died due to a mechanical issue. This was a microsoft certified addition to an existing program. When this is dealt with I'll start the process of replacing at least one copy of XP with linux.

Computers are nothing more than metal and plastic stuck together with frustration. Because a hardy indestructible computer would make them less money.

I discovered firefox right after the second time my black computer went down. The first time was System Pack 2 and a copy of DOS BOX, but the second time was from IE letting a hell of a lot of malware through. I've hardly had a problem since, and I love the Add-ons.

Damn. It sucks when one's computer breaks or goes shitty on you, like my HP laptop did.

Leaving at 4am on Wed. Got it. Where in NJ are you and your gran gonna stay? I have a little offer to make depending on your answer.

But, but if you die, all my inspirational energy will drain out of me! Nuuuuu!

Heehee!

Hmmm. If the places you're staying has internet access, I can let you borrow my hp laptop to keep you from boredom.

Which fanart? I did so many, but never sat down to revise them.

My mycon, let me show you it.

Well she and gran were keeping in contact by way of internet. So I'd say that they probably do, but theres no telling what kind they have. ;_; You are too good to me.

"Lets be friends!" :D

Oh and I sent the supox/Pkunk guy an E-mail asking if he still wants the files. Still no answer tho.

So, yes or no?

Ohhhh, THAT one! I just hope my scanner will cooperate with me...

Let me know if he does reply.

And your icon! Hahaha! After all, Mycon is pronounced as icon, right?

Mycon icon?

Yes, please.

Me too.

I will, I kinda hope he goes all "NO! You left me hanging and I never ever want to hear your voice!" Because my throat feels like I swallowed sandpaper. I tried finishing last night and hooboy. I said one sentence and damn near went into a coughing fit. Apparently seaworld is a baaaad place for me.

YES!

A'ight. But...please take extra (and I mean it to the 10th power) careful with it, it's old. If the connection's still in place, frostwire should still work. Shall I bring it to you on tuesday afternoon?

Oh, he better reply! If he goes to high school, what does he do on weekends? Think naughty things about female-sounding Ur-quans?

I'll see if I can upload it on sunday afternoon/evening. I'll be going to bed in a few minutes.

I shall be extremely careful with it. Oooh, I can work on that fic too, yesyes! That should work, I need to show you how to feed everyone anyways.

XD The internetStar Control is for porn!

How about this, if you upload your pic before I finish that fic I'll give Angel a bath and a trim every month until New Years day. BUT if I'm done before you are, you have to help me trim Kali's claws every month until New Years... Sound good? The odds are in your favor!
