I am the wombat.  :)

Wrote a fic, had some thoughts, did my QBA problems for Friday and drew a comic at the end that was inspired by Hark! A Vagrant!'s "younger self" comics.  Younger me is telling present me that she hates math and doesn't want to be "a 'hcountant," and present me is saying that actually it's a lot of fun.

Future me is knitting, ( Read more... )

Hopefully this will be over soon-ish.

I called Dad and he was like, "Look, just buy a new operating system.  What part of 'get this fixed' didn't you understand?  Get it fixed!"  To which I responded, "Not if I don't have to and you aren't listening, we probably have the OS disc somewhere and I am not paying five hundred dollars to buy a new ( Read more... )

I woke up this morning at 9:30, but Kat said she'd drive me down to the Fix-It Place at noon, so that was all right.  We went to the Place, and the nice lady helped me discover an entirely new problem: that I apparently have either misplaced or never received the Windows XP reinstall disc.  I kind of need it.  It has a product code on it ( Read more... )

Now I'm in the library on one of their laptops.  I've been here since eight or so just faffing about on the internet.

I called my family last night and told them what had happened, and Dad said to go to the TLT first thing tomorrow morning (this morning) and get them to wipe everything for me.  After all, that's what they're there for, right?  They' ( Read more... )

Hadron decided that last night would be the perfect time to catch the mother of all viruses and wipe his hard drive completely clean of everything in one fell swoop ( Read more... )

This. Is hurting my brain.

There are no words. There are seriously no words to describe my feelings on this one. I don't even know. Do I laugh? Do I cry? Do I bash my head against the wall until this goes away? Honestly, a bunch of the "points" on this blog are a half-step away from saying that this kid is going to use some kind of gay ( Read more... )

So my father maintains that our family is cursed.  Because we have a history of good health, longevity, and are generally lucky in areas similar to those, it is only natural that we should also be extremely suceptible to the laws of Murphy and Finagle.  Murphy's Law states that everything that can go wrong will go wrong; and Finagle's Law of ( Read more... )

Here is what made me happy today:

1. Watched the first part of Un Chien Andalou in Contemporary Spain - it's a 16-minute long film by Luis Bunuel and Salvador Dali and is a dream-type of film, and creepy as hell, but we watched part of it and I was pleased
2. My Justice Studies prof found out I was doing a presentation on Dali for the Liberal Arts ( Read more... )

I post this entry, not in regards to anyone in particular, but in response to the ridiculous forum debates I've been trawling for the past two hours.

All right. All you people out there with your angry debates about how to pronounce the word "llama" - give it a rest, okay? As far as I can tell, there's no right or wrong way to pronounce it.

Yes. The ( Read more... )

I are pleased, I thinks.
