@Shiri

Yeah, it took way too long to load. Is there some sort of address like www.lusternia.com/flash that I can use?

Edit:Yes, there is, maybe I can log into it.

Every day I see more clearly that there is no point.

That's the spirit!

Tired, but NOT sleeping, yet. Well, at least until the double exp week is over!

Kinda sucks when it looks like a small chunk of skin has been taken out of your thumb, silly heating lamp burn. Bad place on my thumb joint.

I have all of the parts I need for an AWESOME desktop: 17" flatscreen monitor, high-end custom tower, 1TB external harddrive, mouse, keyboard...

The problem is that my VGA monitor can't connect to my DVI video card, and either way, I won't be able to get an adapter for it for about a week. Bleh. I wanted to try it out.

My normal 5 1/2 hour drive between Chicago and Columbus compounded by 7 accidents and the stretch between Chicago and Indianopolis taking 4 HOURS by itself.

People agitated me today.

Driving to work, I'm behind this truck. The truck gets into the 'go straight' lane, I get into the 'go right' lane. Then the driver of the truck decides, 'Screw straight, I'm turning -right-' as I'm about even with his rear window. Barely missed getting my mirror knocked off by about half an inch.

Then I get to work, and have the whole 'Well maybe you have it in the back' shtick. So I go in the back, come back and tell them we don't have it. They tell me 'Are you sure, maybe you could look again. Perhaps you just didn't see it.' I'm sure I'm going to get a talking to because I was already annoyed and busy and responded with 'I am not an idiot, nor am I blind. We don't have it.' Customers thinking we all just have to bend over and take it whenever they like pisses me off to no end.

Then I get a couple that want to buy a christmas tree, and because I'm the biggest guy in the store, I get the pleasure of moving the trees and tying them down. I then get to explain why exactly tying a tree bigger than their tiny little mini sedan is not going to work. And then explaining to them why they cannot use -my- car, even if they promise to bring it back in once piece.

My family has decided to repossess the computer I have been using for the last three months while I save up to buy a new motherboard for my laptop. Once again, I am relegated to using the library computer, and nexus, to connect.

ugh

Doh, and right when you get Champion, too.
Fern2009-11-30 17:55:39
I KNOW!

Thankfully, Mush can be run from a flash drive, unfortunately, the library that is closest to my house does not let me run programs from an external source. So I'm stuck. /sigh

I hate being used by someone I'd trust enough with my life. I guess this means yet another goodbye. Man, I hate how frequent my goodbyes have been.sad.gif

I know the feeling, particularly recently. It must be something in the water.

I caught a particularly irritating computer virus last night. It acts like it's an antivirus program setting off warnings against an attack, and asks you if you want to activate it. I've seen this before, so I know better, but in the meantime, it shuts off my web-browsing capability via a proxy trick and shuts down just about any other program I try to start, including AVG, Task Manager, and Spider Solitaire.

Was able to fix the more irritating aspects of it via a reboot and some quick clicking, but I can't seem to get rid of it entirely and it's not getting picked up by either of my scanners. Grump.

Rootkits suck. Windows 7 doesn't. wink.gif

I got that and I removed it, manually. If you have you have Vista, you can go into the control panel and use change startup programs. You can deactivate it and remove it from startup from there and it wasn't able to stop me from getting there. You should be able to find where it is in the computer and manually remove it after deactivating it first.
