cool dream and computer randomness

Uncategorized — A. @ 11:00 pm

I just wanted to blog that the night after the fair I had this really cool dream about having all these hot punk friends and we went around and did punk things…it was sweet. I totally would have had sex with all of them…and I had the feeling that if the dream had continued, that so would have happened. Too bad real punks don’t exist any more. Everybody’s sold out. The hard drive of my dreams is $150. I guess I’ll have to get it next paycheck. Well, technically I’ll have enough money to get it but that would only leave me with like $10 in my account. Not cool. So maybe I’ll take out $50 and keep it in my room as my computer fund. More like I should take out a hundred. Oh, I know…well..it’s a toss up between buying uber-DVDs, Norton AntiVirus, PartitionMagic, MusicMatch, or Nero 6. I’m really leaning towards Nero 6 because like, burning DVDs is the shiznit and if I have a fast enough connection on my network I could just host all my files on my old computer in the living room (Montag) and just have the OS and a few core files on my new comp. That would be the shiznit. I completely keep forgetting the home network I’ll be setting up. I hope all this works out okay. Hmm. I only have to wait until Friday!

I met Amanda’s mom today–she was very very obese, which I totally should have expected, but didn’t. Amanda is having oral surgery today I think… Feel better soon! Find solace in the fact that I’m going to work hard to have your computer to you on Friday!

However, it’ll probably take all weekend. Formatting the drive will not take too long, but loading all the programs on it that I’m going to give you, burning you CDs of all those programs, and all that other good stuff will take a while. When things involve computers, it’s best to set tentative dates. But if I can get all the files copied off and it formatted and everything in time, I’ll so bring it back into town that day. It all depends when I get off work. If it’s like one or two-ish…well actually I’m pretty sure it will take longer than 3 hours. Oh well. I could arrange to meet you on Saturday, I guess. Do you have church? I forget which religions think that the sabbath is Sunday and which think it’s Saturday. You’d think they could just get together and decide..but that’s just me. Well anyway, this HELLA OLD (9+ years) keyboard is getting on my nerves, so I’m going to sleep.

Nine Inch Nails - Underneath It All

I haven’t blogged in a while, I’ve been stuck in this pit of ennui. Hung out with Molly yesterday while she reviewed this textbook thing, it was fun. We talked about the end of the world. And she showed me the SD card that we got for the digital camera. It’s 128 MB. Oh, before I forget, I found the FUNNIEST t-shirt online. Stupid Blogger is being gay and not letting my image work, so here’s the text of the shirt:

“I’m only talking to you so I’ll have something to blog about later”

I love it! Stupid Blogger keeps fucking with my HTML and making the link not work. Fuck Blogger. Gaze upon its glory here:

So anyway, Mike has been harping on the stupid maps so I went in early today and worked on them. I need to stop by the Lake Earl Wildlife Area or whatever and get some maps of it. And I need that Mill Creek Acquisition Area bullshit. I think I spelled acquisition wrong, but I detest this subject too much to look it up.

I researched this insurance bullshit again, and it would cost me about $300 a month to get adequate collision and comprehensive with adequate bodily injury/property damage. So I’m going to have to drive around underinsured and hope the world doesn’t fuck me. Which it inevitably will. I think maybe I’ll see how much just collision is. Fucking insurance is so damn expensive. I don’t make that kind of money. I barely make $400 a month, and I need gas money too. So I’m left in the hands of the fates once again. I almost got in an accident Monday when I was checking out this really hot dude that always runs on the route I go home, and I totally almost crashed into the car in front of me.

I know I will eventually get in an accident that is my fault, be it tomorrow or next year. Then I will have to experience that horrible sickening sludge that creeps through your lungs and overwhelms you because I’ll know my goose is cooked. I have essentially no coverage for any accident I get in that’s my fault. I don’t want to complain, but my dad got me a car that is way too expensive. It’s at that point where in two or three years you’d stop paying comprehensive and collision because the car wouldn’t be worth enough. The futility of the human endeavour astounds me. Well, if someone did sue my ass off I guess I could just escape to Europe. I wish. I should get a passport. How does one go about getting one? I’d probably have to deal with the DMV or something like that, which would just depress me further.

I’m just waiting until Friday. On Friday I’m going to put my check in the bank, go to the Drift office and buy my RAM, then head over to the computer store and get the stuff to set up my home network. That should leave me with around $60. My next insurance payment is due on the 7th of September, so I should be fine until my next paycheck. I need to buy my books with this paycheck though…I may not have enough money to do the home network thing. However, when I get the network stuff it’ll allow me to sell my old computer to Amanda, making my net worth at the end of the escapade a nice $160. I could get a nice hard drive with that. Oh, I finished downloading Premiere today, I burned it onto a CD. Oh, I know what I should get: Nero 6. It’s only $70. Hmm…it would be more prudent to get a hard drive. Ooooooo….Partion Magic 8.0…*drool*. I totally need more money. I’m going to go drool over hard drives.

I want to go home and I have a stomachache

Uncategorized — A. @ 2:13 pm

I want to go home. I want to go home. My hip is itchy and my stomach hurts and I’m hungry and I hate this place and I hate this tedious bullshit. I worked on the maps too long and right now I’m barely starting letters to the editor. I have to do neighbors, the community calendar, and a whole bunch of other shit today. I don’t think I’m going to add anything to the calendar today, I’m just going to delete everything that’s already happened. I don’t have the time. I don’t have the stamina. I just want to get out of this bleeding hellhole right now. I got a buttload of work done on the maps though. OMG, stupid Mike is saying that in the future I am going to work on Erin’s computer since he’s only here at night. And they’re going to give my workstation to somebody else. Fuck that. Why should I have to share a desk? Erin comes in in the AFTERNOON not the “night.” Mike is so full of shit it makes me sick. JUST BUY ANOTHER MOTHERFUCKING COMPUTER? IS IT SO FUCKING DIFFICULT? And guess what I saw today? A computer running Windows XP. What the fuck is up with that? And we’re stuck with completely unstable Mac OS 9? Fuck that. Fuck it all. Fuck everyone. And especially, fuck this paper.

uh oh

I just realized today that Justin is going to have been in Brazil for an entire year this August 15th. That means that he’s coming back soon…that means I’ll see his stupid face again. Grr.
