ocg's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Baby got back... on the intarweb. Holy crap, I'm posting from home! How did this happen, you ask? Lemme 'splain: See, when we moved in here in October, we got a new modem when they came to hook up our shit. Then we lost everything on the computer. Then we just decided to let everythig that we lost go and build anew. Then the internet wouldn't work. Then, after multiple nights of banging my head on the keyboard, moaning, "Why won't this damn thing install?," I got so pissed off at the computer that I literally ignored it for a whole month. I know! I'll bet the computer's feelings were very hurt. Then, yesterday afternoon, I decided to organize the office room, which had previously been stacked and packed with boxes. I'd been avoiding this room, right, because of the little riff between the computer and I and all, and after the room was cleaned and rid of its excess baggage, there sat the computer, smiling up at me. "Come on," it said. "Try to figure me out." And being the dirty whore for the computer that I am, I sat down. I think the computer and I have a D/s relationship. Guess which one I am? Taking an almost Vulcanic form of logic to the task (nerd alert), I decided to go back to basics, because calling tech support? No, not me. Too proud. Far too proud. So I did the run down- all the cords in? check. modem plugged in? check. disc in ---er, waitaminit, what's that little button on the front of the modem? We didn't have one of those before... hunh, it says... Internet ON/OFF. Jesus, Mary, and Joseph if I didn't let off a string of expletives that would have made the most salty fisherman alive blush. Internet ON/OFF. Fuck you, Internet ON/OFF button. * On a better note, so I'm back online now, yeah, sweet, maaan! I'm loading up the Sims and getting ready to really slip into something akin to a coma, complete with drool coming out of the side of my mouth. I haven't played the Sims in foreeeevvvveeerrr.... and now that I have a clean slate, computer wise, I'm going to have to revisit all of those Sim sites with cool downloads. Maybe this time I won't kill myself and my sweet babboo within the first three days. That'd be sweet. I've set myself a bedtime tonight, though, to prevent any "Holy crap, if I go to bed now, I'll only get three hours of sleep before I have to be at work" episodes. That is all! for now, preeties, sleep well! ocg 5:46 p.m. - 2004-12-05 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
