So... the Comcast guys finally came today and hooked up the Internets to my apartment! Hot damn I was excited... so I hooked up Vincent to it... and... and... PAGE CANNOT BE DISPLAYED. What? WHAT!?  Amy not happy. Ohh... Amy was not happy. I nearly threw that damn laptop at the wall. But I have important documents and stuff on there that would then be lost and unable to be transferred to a new puter. So in my rage... and I do mean rage... I drove to Best Buy and bought a new laptop. Yeah. A bit of an impulse, but I need my damn internet. I'm already paying for 2 interents right now (I need to call Chaska.net to cancel Monday), and I've had three people look at the old laptop to make it work... I'm tired of it all. With some Christmas money that I got from Dad, I bought a nice Gateway laptop that is sleek and fun and awesome and only $499 (pre-tax). So yeah. And then after a few more agonizing and profanity-laidened moments, I got online and squealed with joy from another world. I scared Kiera and she went and hid on the couch (she blends into the black cushions nicely).

I'm on my new laptop right now, whom I named Octavian, and he's doing lovely. I'm getting some stuff slowly set up and getting used to the weird layout of the keyboard (it's kinda small and keys are in weird spots) and stuff of this. And it does have Vista on it... which I'm not finding too much wrong with... yet. So as I work tonight on laundry (which I need to switch soon) I will be moving stuff from Vincent over to Octavian. And then I will go Office Space on VIncent. And you think I'm joking. Nope. Not. Taking my dad's sledgehammer to it. It's about time I relieve some of this anger and frustration that Vincent has been instilling into me over the last few months. And ooohh... will it feel good. A precursor to my Wreck Room that I will someday have in my own house. A room in the basement that will be full of crap and things that I don't really want, and when I'm in a destructive mood or need to relieve some pressure, I'll go down there with a hammer and smash the shit out of things. Oooh. So delicious.

Now I'm off to tend to laundry and have fun filling Octavian with Relic Chosen stories and other things from the old POS. Ciao.

How terribly un-environmentally friendly....:(

Nate shrieked when he read this. It was his first laptop. But I think we're all a little possessive about that. When we junked our first car it was hard too. Anyway, you got some use out of it, which is good, and you got a nice one for your money for the future now.

Eh, the environment can suck it. :P

He shrieked? Awesome. I guess I can understand the attachment. I am horrified at the fact that some day... I will have to get rid of James [my car] and get a new one... and I can't bare to part from James. He's been the most stable male relationship in my life!!

lol.....

actually, Nate wanted the laptop for Natali to bang on since she keeps trying to bang on the one we actually use and we're afraid she'll break it!
