For some reason, occasionally when I type on my laptop, it will add in a bunch of gobbledygook letters, and then mute my speakers. I think either the keyboard is bugged, or my backspace is hitting something it shouldn't.

It sounds more like a short circuit than a bug. Spill something?

My connection is great.

Then I go and help with the domoth. It's fine for a while, then it goes downhill. Now I've died, lost level 80, and my character is probably still dead because I tried to log back in, got beckoned, and got screwed over. Thanks, Lusternia.

Excuse me while I go cry for a bit.

Nah, pretty sure I didn't.

I have been waiting several years to see Kamelot in concert. I bought my ticket a month-and-a-half ago, all set to go to their show with some friends and... Khan gets ill to the point that he has to go back to Norway and will be unable to sing for the tour. crying.gif

I'd be crying too. sad.gif

It's been four years since I tried to go to college. Everything at that time was paid off, the college was happy, ok, fine.

So why, recently, has a collection agency been calling me about needing to pay the college? No letters beforehand, nothing, just suddenly, collection calls. Really? This sucks. It's made me cry. sad.gif

I lost my glasses... crying.gif

Now I'm as blind as a slightly nearsighted individual who's lost their glasses!

I couldn't find mine for a while. Now, SOMEONE has me wanting to figure out a physics problem.

My glasses broke today in class. The screw isn't stripped, the hole is. Wondeful. Yay electrical tape.

Hey! It was a perfectly valid question! You live in a sciency city, I had a sciency question.

You asked the engineering student a physics question! Now it needs to be solved.

well, it's not my fault that you're an engineering student! You should have chosen something non-mathematical like me. If you had asked me the question, I would have answered with a simple 'a lot'.

Call back. It's entirely possible that they just bought your name from a list and they're trying to weasel money out of you. Respond, if you need to, show up in court, just basically act like a sensible person and show that your debt is paid and that any claims made against you are either incorrect, or worse, fraudulent.
Shulamit2010-09-10 03:42:15
Yeah, it still makes me nervous and unhappy sad.gif

Contact lenses ftw.

My grandparents recently got a call about a student loan of mine.

They paid from saved money, and I don't even have everything I would need for a loan.

meh. I haven't worn contacts in years. Because my vision isn't all that bad, they were just thin and floppy enough to be completely irritating. Besides...my glasses change color. Find me a set of contacts that turn to shades and I might consider switching again thumup.gif
Everiine2010-09-10 05:19:30
My astigmatism is so freakin' high that last time I even considered contacts, it wasn't going to be easy. I've had glasses since I was 4, I'm used to them being on every day, all day.

We don't like to solve problems because we're engineers, we become engineers because we like to solve problems.
Xavius2010-09-10 06:00:37
I thought you became engineers because it's easier to mack off a scientist's work than to have original thought. ninja.gif
