12:21 am: ......... my cats need to stop loving me so much...

as has become the norm, i am currently sitting in a desk chair, in front of a desk upon which rests my beautiful computer with attached keyboard and mouse... there is a white furball in my lap attempting to capture my arms, a grey thing licking my feet, and a black one sitting on my mouse wire............. now, not only does the licking of the toes tickle and make me uncomfortable, but the nosing and grabbing of my arms makes it difficult to type, and if i manage to get an arm away from the white one to use the mouse, i not only have to dodge the black one's wet nose, but somehow move her without getting bitten so i can move the mouse more than half an inch.........

i did not realize i'd gone down so much....

12:57 am: you know, i'm beginning to wonder why i have a livejournal anyway, seeing as i only rarely post in it anymore, and even when i do, i'm afraid i'm being whiny and pointless.

12:07 pm: *sigh* i can only blame myself.

01:41 pm: i got my computer!!!!!!!!!!!!!

07:46 pm: technology hates me today... my ipod randomly decided to stop working... it won't even turn on, it just gives me a screen with a little frowny face ipod and the support website, which i can't figure out, since i can't do any of the things it tells me to do, because even when i plug it into the computer, all it shows is the frowny-face-ipod then the charging screen... doesn't show up on my computer at all.

12:22 am: technolust satisfied............ for now.

I got a wireless keyboard and mouse today, cuz there were just too many frickin' wires in my room.... and downloaded (with help, thank you) a program that makes my desktop look like a mac... i was literally making incoherent sounds of glee when i saw the result.

01:55 pm: *blinks* did i miss something?

how did my life get back on track without me even noticing?

... i'm confused.

09:46 pm: ... and i'm now addicted to Silk chocolate soy milk. Wonderful.

12:55 am: and i just realized... i am a pathetic human being.

12:54 pm: gar.... MEN!!!!!

08:49 pm: i want to hit something repeatedly until there's nothing but a squishy puddle of bloody goo.

12:23 am: so the alienware is fixed, it turned out to actually be a problem with the windows updates my mother installed, not the drivers, not the software, and i don't know the details because she fixed it while i was at work.

12:33 pm: So my mother got an alienware... and it got here yesterday.

Now there's problems. i have no idea how to get it online. I hooked the ethernet cable up, restarted the modem, there's still no signal... so i futzed with the connections (there's two ethernet ports) and the only way i can get it to show up on LAC1 is by disabling LAC3, and the only way i can get it to show up on LAC3 is by disabling it and re-enabling it.

So i got the connection to show up, right, next step, install the ISP software... error message, the installer didn't recognize the drivers. so i checked the drivers to make sure they were installed, then to be safe, i went to alienware's tech support website and downloaded the drivers for the entire chipset onto my computer, transferred it with a zip disk to the alienware, and reinstalled them, then gave it another go... and the installer STILL didn't recognize the drivers. We just switched to optonline a few weeks ago, so as far as i'm aware, it's the latest software, the next step is to call and bitch at optimum, i think. But i have no fucking clue what they can do.

06:59 pm: BORED!!!!!!

03:08 pm:

In the year 2006 I resolve to: Fire my boss. Get your resolution here

01:52 pm: and *drumroll* i'm sick :-(

07:42 pm: i'm all sneezy, bleck

12:27 am: why do i even bother?
