Well, this past week has been hell. First, my router crashed...so no internet. Then, right after that happened, I tried to tinker with the settings to get my wireless network back up and running (I had no idea at this point that it was the router), and ended up fucking up the system, which meant that I couldn't even access the computer at all. Let's just say that I had my computer stuck in a loop in which it wouldn't allow me to log into my desktop without already being logged into my desktop. LOL. Simultaneously, my hard drive decides to crash. So I'm panicking at this point. I didn't have a copy of the Windows XP Professional disk, so I couldn't even reload Windows to access my desktop to even TRY to salvage any of my data. So here's what went down: My mother bought me a copy of Windows XP Professional on eBay, and it was shipped out pretty quickly. I had it in two days. Then, I had to go out and buy a new hard drive, install it, load Windows onto it, then install my old hard drive as a slave, and copy everything I could from it. I was very thankful that I didn't lose too much. Yeah, I lost some of my porn (but not too much), and I lost a ton of mp3's, but thats ok...I can always re-download all that stuff. So after I got everything back up, I was happy...but I STILL didn't have internet access. So finally Lance went out and bought a new router. Now everything is back up and running.
So that was just my computer problems for the week. On top of all that, the weather has sucked ASS (thanks hurricane Dennis), my sinuses have kicked my butt this week, AND work sucked because of the weather. I didn't make much money this week, but I managed to survive, I guess. Oh yeah...and the crack in my windshield...tripled in size because of the extreme heat at the earlier part of last week. Ugh.
But on the bright side...I've started moving into my new apartment upstairs. Finally, everything was finished...so I can move out of this tiny little efficiency where I'm cooped up with Lance, and into my own place again. God, I miss having my own place. I started moving stuff in last night. I expect to be moved in by this time next week. I hafta wait until this weekend to move a lot of the big stuff, cuz I can't do it by myself.
Thursday night was...interesting. I went out with a bunch of co-workers to Alibi for the $3 20oz Long Island night and got TRASHED. I'm going to leave the details of what happened after I got shit-faced out...but let's just say that I acted a little out of character. I had some people offer me some pot and coke, and I turned that down, though. That's the last thing I needed. LOL.
Oh, I finally listened to the lyrics of the song "Scars" by Papa Roach, and I was amazed at just how applicable that song is to my relationship with Kyle. I miss him some times, but I just can't fix him...and I had to move on with my own life.
Well, I can't sleep...and I hafta be up and getting ready for work in less than 3 hours. What sucks is that I have to work a double today. But I'm not even sure I want to try to go to bed. I have a lot I need to do tomorrow, and it would be kinda nice to be tired tonight, so that I could go to bed and sleep and get up at a decent hour tomorrow. I need to call USF to find out about how I need to go about getting my vaccination records, and I need to go over to the storage unit and get some more shit out. Rex should be home before too long, so maybe I'll just go get dressed and when he gets home go outside and see if I can get the key and stuff for the storage unit so that I can get in. If I don't catch up with him this morning, I'm going to HAVE to be up at the butt crack of dawn tomorrow to catch him...otherwise I won't be able to get the shit out of storage. Well, that's my update for now. THANK GOD I'm finally back online...
