one day, near the end of last week, my computer died. i was typing a VERY long livejournal entry, and it just decided to hate me. after about three hours of fidgeting, i went out to get drunk with an old high school buddy. when i'd returned, the computer would do nothing. nothing, that is, but tell me that there was a non system disk error. NOTHING ELSE.
i am here now in new haven using my father's computer. not because i was so desperate to use livejournal again (in fact, i'm so pissed at livejournal that this may end up being my farewell message), but because my brother and my mother thought they might want to tinker with my crappy crap computer and see what's possible. what i thought would be a visit of just a few hours has turned into a totally endless hellhole. i have never hated this place more than i do right now. i have gone through so many stages of frustration tonight -- at my computer, at my girlfriend, at my family, at the red sox game which i was using as distraction and which now has been rain delayed -- and now i just REALLY REALLY REALLY want to be back home with my girlfriend whether my computer comes or not.
if anybody has a computer they'd like to give me, or $1000 for a new one, or copies of any of the files or photos hidden somewhere on my computer, please let me know. thanks.
god just let this be over and let me have money again.
