After years of not quite being right, my mobile has totally broken now. The memory card is completely jammed and seems to be shorting something, causing the phone to not charge, think it's battery is dead and turn off intermittently.
Not being able to call them, I tried Samsung's website.
You have to register, but when after you fill the form out, nothing happens.
The website's main email page doesn't exist either so the best I could do was file 1 request for a manual (ish) and email recruiting.
Neither of which bothered to get back to me. Aren't Samsung just great?
Trying to get finished up here, still need to sell my boat. Was getting pissed off with eBay selling, as recent price hikes mean I would be better off giving stuff to charity than taking losses selling to ingrates. But then somebody paid £10 for an antique game and it made me feel much better.
Can't decide whether to sell my bass hardcase or just mail it to York for £13. I do want to sell it and buy a lighter one, this case is not quite a flightcase and so weighs a ton, without being lockable. But it's a good case, doubles as a bed extension, and I don't wanna make a loss on it. Guess I'm just paranoid.
Looking at buying an Explorer or a Flying V, a cheap one, I don't especially like them but Flying Vs are supposed to have very chunky necks, and I've always liked the Explorer body shape. Some of the knock-offs are better than the original. The lower horn obstructs the frets more than I'd like, but it's worth it for the arm rest.
I don't like the gold hardware or strap button placing, but the idea is there.
I shouldn't already be planning on filling my new room with junk, and buying a cheap guitar is often risky, but then I did get my current favourite, a very good Stonewood electric (Who are Stonewood?) for £60 about this time 3 years ago. I have the room continuously til July too, so moving won't be a big deal.
Still no recordings of my bass. Won't have a chance til I'm back at uni now. Not sure whether to dismantle my bass or just put it in the case and mail it.
Been 'reading' webcomic Lean On Me
http://www.jadegordon.com/leanonme/ which is not especially deep or realistic but has been food for thought to me. I've gradually become more accepting of the fact that trying to pass as female is as much a cage to me as being a normal male. Worrying about what people think is something I hate, and the pressure to act a certain way only intensifies this. Much as I tend to say how much men bore or disgust me, there is a big piece of me that's firmly on the masculine side, and I don't want to pretend it isn't there.
I really just want to be free of it, and be accepted for who I am. I guess I will, (as was suggested to me) go back to being more subtle, comfortable and ambiguous. It's still a big "We'll see" but at least more of the pieces make sense now.
I'm supposed to see the doctor again to get my dose increased again. I'm taking 125mcg thyroxine every day now. My sleeping patterns are hell (6AM til 2PM) but I'm managing to stay functional about 16 hours a day now. Big improvement. Conversation still shit. Memory still shit. We'll see.
Interesting side note: My hidden entries show up in my tag cloud. Could somebody go to my journal page, and tell me if the word "crap" is there? Also google seems to no longer be working with an online dictionary. Spell checking has just become a whole lot less convenient.
