October is nearly over, thank god. Another fortnight would have surely ended with me topping myself. Ok I'm a drama queen, but it's been a rough month. My desktop has died again, after a swishy new harddrive was aquired for it it decided the motherboard and CPU weren't fit to live in the same case.. and then because of all this new fangled technology my old RAM didn't work with the new components. So guess who just got themselves a swishy new system? Pity my credit card, it now whimpers in fear every time I open my wallet.
Aside from that my fridge is dying a slow death, the freezer isn't worked terribly well (as in not freezing) some sections of the fridge are working too well (as in freezing everything that gets put ninto that part - exploding beer bottles anyone?) and other sections aren't keeping things cold (mmmm mouldy tofu).. and my toilet decided to spray water at high pressure from the cistern last night all over the place semi flooding my bathroom before I got it under control. And I'm not even going to start discussing my ISP woes, because I know someone will want to be helpful and I don't have a clue - my best skill with things like that is looking pretty while a boy does it for me. Technologically empancipated? Not me.
And then, there's uni. 2 assignments left before I finish the academic component of this shitty degree that I don't even want forever.. and to celebrate I'm watching as much Queer as Folk as I can before deadlines compell me to get on with my work (which is due Friday).
On the plus side, rent is paid for the next month, centrelink seems to have accepted my disogranised financial records and I've tracked down my doctor for my medical review, tickets to Lab4's final show have been purchased at a greatly discounted rate.. and one of my housemate's friends who is a promoter is giving me his ticket to slinky because he doesn't even know who Johan Gielen is, just knows I went bouncing around the house when I found out he was playing.
November: You are on strict notice not to be as shitty as Oct. If you are, I'll cancel you next year too.
