Copmuter Companies are Stupid
Well, today was supposed to be a good day. I was supposed to get my laptop back since it had a line of dead pixels (that was growing everyday) on it and it needed to be fixed. So two weeks ago I sent it in to be fixed and they shipped it to it's home company to have the lcd screen fixed. It arrived back in town last night. My dad goes to pick it up to surprise me with it but turns out the company didn't fix it. They apparantly fixed the keyboard while saying they fixed the dead pixels. DIRTY ROTTEN LIARS! D< So now it'll be gone another two weeks but you know what's really fun? I have to go back to school by at least Tuesday for classes on Wednesday and I have writing enhanced courses and a class with an online component. I won't have a computer for the first 2 weeks of school now. Can anyone else say "I'm Screwed!"? Gah. Just really frusterating is what this is and I was counting on having this thing back by today so I could head out on Sunday; but no such luck for me. Oh well, let's look on the brightside, at least there are computers on campus to use. Just sucks royally since I have to pay to use the printers there. *fumes* Stupid computer company that sends unfixed product back.
On another note, but just as crappy, well... not really since this is the better part of it. My grandfather (on my dad's side) just got out of the hospital. He has undergone what... 2 or 3 open bypass and a couple other surgeries on his heart including having a difibulator put in. It turns out after he went in for shortness of breath and other stuff that he has ANOTHER blockage in his arteries. They've used up almost all of his good arteries for his bypasses (i think he had a quad this last time but i'm not certain). So yeah... pretty depressing because I don't know what more they can do for him, they let him go home yesterday and had him go through a battery of tests today that we're still waiting to hear from my grandmother about the results. -sigh- So yeah, prayer for him would be nice. -chuckles- But (allow my moment of selfishness) I love how everytime i plan on forgoing on the huge family fishing trip at easter to go have fun with my friends instead that my Papaw (pet name for grandfather) winds up in the hospital a couple of weeks or months prior reminding that little voice in my head. "You don't know if this will be the last time you can go fishing with him... do you want to miss out on that for some anime convention ?" Then I get all guilty and have to cancel on people. I've passed up a trip to Hawaii, a couple of trips to other places and now I'm being faced with the decision to not go to an anime convention this year that is the only one i've been given permission to go to in 2 years. (My mother HATES them with a passion. says it's where everything that is wrong in my life stemmed from -rolls eyes-) So yeah, dillema. I'll probably go fishing, but i REALLY want to go to a convention to. But yeah... I'll be praying over it to say the least.
I should probably go to bed soon since I need to get up early in the morning to go work. I'm helping my mother out at her job since one of the ladies has found out she has cancer but is going to continue working as long as she can (brave lady. And she is awesome. :D) but she's undergoing some tests tomorrow to determine if some of the cancer isn't there in the first place. 8D GOOD STUFF if it's true. But I'll be backing lasagna and garlic bread in my old high school cafeteria (where my mother is the head lunch lady :3 ). It'll be hot since the school won't fix the air conditioning in there but we'll make due. So buenos noches mis amigos! I'll see y'all later!
