Long time no...something

i know iknow, been a while. not too much been going on here lately, except for rats, and computers.

a few weeks ago we put down joe's rats manic and coke because they both had very large tumors. we got two new rats, Mia and Seras. Mia as in M.I.A-she escaped from the box on the car ride home from the pet store, and Seras from Hellsing cuz it's a great name. Saturday afternoon as i'm leaving the bedroom after telling joe about my computer (see next paragraph) i notice these things in the rat cage, after turning on the light i see that they are nine baby rats. so we now own eleven rats, and a new rat cage so that in four weeks we can separate the males from the females and not get infested with rats. we're trying to give most, in not all, of them away, so if you're interested in a few let me know.

also a few weeks ago-my computer had another heart attack. i turned it on and the screen was white, faded to black, and then started morphing through pretty colors. fun to watch, not useful for playing wow. so i call dell, they say it's the lcd, i think they're wrong. i let them come replace it anyway. no more pretty colors, computer still doesn't work. four days later i call back, they say they need to replace the motherboard. i inform them that if they do replace the motherboard it will be the fourth one in this computer. 'really?' says the indian woman i can barely understand. 'yes' i reply. she says she's sending someone over who will replace the motherboard AND troubleshoot the pc. they come over saturday morning, really cool guys, after about twenty minutes they say, 'yea, replacing the motherboard isn't going to fix it. we're going to send it off to dell so they can fix what's really wrong or replace it.' so last night my computer got picked up by DHL to be sent to dell to be fixed or replaced. in the meantime i've been whining about my computer sucking and parker offers to build me a pc, cuz he rocks. i cannot explain how very, very tempted i am to just say fuck it, build me a new computer. *sigh* we'll see what happens.

so this is the excitement of the few weeks of my life. i am having wow withdrawls, and want my computer back. GRR!! oh, and kahn's still growing. he's growing much mroe slowly now, but still growing.
