heh...so today was going good until my cpu..with my entire senior project on it...decided to not turn on...i determined it was the ac adapter burned out as light kept flickering, thus i went to circuit city to get another one...for a 100$ i purchased a compatible adapter...when i got home i realized that the adapter did not fit into normal outlets and was only for use in cars and airplanes...it doesnt end there....well now...after having been to circuit city twice already in one day..i needed to go return it...and i knew they didnt have one that i needed and that it would need to be ordered online..therefore taking a few days to be delivered...i figured that if i at least charged my battery for the cpu using the car adapter, before i returned it, that i could at least turn the cpu on long enuff to retrieve my term paper and email it to my dads cpu, which i am currently using at the moment..seconds later i see smoke arising in the car...thinking that it was coming from the car lighter...which is where the adapter is plugged in i quickly removed it...moments later..i realized the smoke was coming from the fuse on my laptop..which still had yet to turn on...now it may be damaged..and it may not..i will not know until i recieve the knew adapter which will take a couple of days...so until then...i will not be online as my dad comes home in an hour and would have my head if he found me using his cpu...all in all...my conclusion for today is..that i got royally screwed, fucked...whatever you folks want to call it...anyway..you all enjoy the rest of your day now...
