That made me search for "crazy haircuts." I present my findings.


Damn you, I didn't realize my picture was online.

Steam. I want to buy games from there, but because I'm stationed in Germany currently - and hence my IP is German - all the prices in Euro. Furthermore, I can't even pay for the games in Euro pricing, because it checks your IP against the billing address of whatever method of payment you use, and if the countries don't match - fail. Constantly amazed at how hard I try to give some people my money, and how often they won't work a little bit to get it.

A friend and colleague of 8 years made redundant today! F***ing morons are increasing the number of PC's and IT systems and cutting staff...

We are up to 400 PC's supported per tech now. (200 each if you count managers, me and devs.) This is going to be such a fun year. sad.gif

Ugh. My college accepts like no AP exams. dry.gif Because I'm a loser like that, I took 12 AP exams and passed them...and I get to skip one class (Physics). What a waste of money.

Finally figuring out how to order new checks from my bank, only to find out that the order was cancelled without explanation. Grrrrr....

I have a horrible headache from lack of sleep... It's in my eyeballs.. sad.gif

My insomnia's back with a vengeance. I'm lucky if I can get five hours sleep a night.

My boyfriend told me not to watch it and I watched it anyway.. oh my god.. I can't unsee it.. EWWWWW

It's a good song.. Video is super nasty though

How can such a happy song have such a nasty video?? Oh and just to warn you.. it gets bad a little bit after he takes off his shorts.. -cough-

GAH! At first it was just awkward, but then... GAH!

I'm guessing your bank/whatever is in the US and uses dollars? What's to stop you from opening a temporary account where you're stationed?

My school didn't let me place -out- of anything, but I did get to place -up- into higher level, and thus more interesting classes (graduation requirements aren't "take this this and this" but more like "take n classes in z areas"). Do you get any allowances like that? Also, AP classes may count for unit requirements so that you don't have to take as many fluff and filler classes.

Maybe I have some kind of defect, but the first 2 minutes and 59 seconds of that video were dull and common, and then at the 3 minute mark, everything got eleventy million times more awesome. The video title description says it was banned in many countries... that's just odd to me. It didn't seem that bad. dunno.gif

I just got soaking wet when i went out to lunch to the point where i had to wring out my socks. And if that wasn't bad enough I ran over my foot with my office chair while i had my shoes off to dry crying.gif

Actually, it took them almost two days to reply, but they said they had "unlocked" my account. I went back to the steam store, and everything was in USD. Pretty sweet. They're slow, but at least they fixed the problem the first try without giving me hassle.

Yeah, I saw nothing even mildly offensive about it. Even PG-13 would be a stretch.

I thought the first couple minutes were decent, though. It's all, "Here I am, girls. What more do I need to do to get your attention?"

I understood the message he was trying to get across, and I guess it needs the setup before the big show, but I guess I could take it our leave it. The thrusting with the tiger manwear was pretty hilarious, though.

It just reminds me too much of Anatomy and Physiology. I can't look at cats the same way ever again now that I've seen their insides.

Rock DJ... I remember seeing that when I was like, eight... And then a few years ago and when I started looking for an uncensored one... ninja.gif

Finishing my book. I liked it sooo much.
And now I have to wait ages before the next one gets released here crying.gif
