I finally moved upstairs!! YAY!! I have an actual bed off the floor! I have a window, a closet, a dresser, and lamps that I don't have to cross a room to turn off. I also have PRIVACY. I could sleep naked if I wanted to (I don't). The only problem currently is that I don't have a tv. That will be remedied in a little over a week's time when the AT& ( Read more... )

...can kiss my big fat ass. "You can keep working during download..." What a crock of shit. It only caused all of my programs to quit working (which consisted of 1 - IE... um, why?) Fucker is taking up all the bandwidth and RAM so I can't even read a page that has already been downloaded without gigantic pauses for loading. GRR at Microsoft and ( Read more... )

So, yesterday I mentioned that Yahoo sucked because it deleted my account, thus deleting all of my Flickr pictures. Well, turns out I'm just a dork.

The dude at the store where Dad bought the computer said that since the drive was already almost ( Read more... )

Was at my laptop, on my bed, eating my bowl of Special K Red Berries as usual when disaster happened.  My hand decided to stop working. My right hand was bringing the spoon full of cereal up to my mouth and my left hand, holding the bowl, just went limp at the wrist. SPLOOSH! Went half of my cereal and milk into my lap. None, thankfully, got into ( Read more... )

I have found the magical world of GIMP. The GNU Image Manipulator Program. Like Photoshop only free. God. Sooo much better than the crap Microsoft Photodraw thingy I was using. I added one icon I forgot I had (the coffee one). The other two (Shit happens and I'm not crazy) I created all by myself. Notice the increase in complexity (woohoo! a border ( Read more... )
