So, remember the old computer I talked about like three weeks ago? And how I was hoping to make it work? Yeahh, it's sitting in about a dozen little pieces at the curb, waiting to be picked up and taken to the dump.
The stupid thing wouldn't do anything. Finally got it to boot, but it wouldn't save anything. It wouldn't run anything. It wouldn't do anything. Finally I just started screaming at it and tore it down to its smallest components. The only thing I saved was the hard drive.
Thankfully, I have a friend who gave me her old one because it wouldn't turn on. A 512 MB RAM card and one new power supply later, I'm bumping Windows XP and defragging the hard drive, and installing some goodies too. Hopefully I can make this thing the computer I always wanted.
Also, I have a job working for a logging company. Not exactly a Staples salesman, but it pays 8.00 an hour and is only 10 minutes away from home. Unfortunately, it came a bit too late, and my car got sold out from under me. But you don't want to hear about that, you probably only want to look at pictures of funny cats. I'm sorry that the long post gap is filled with this. I promise I'll have something interesting next week.
