Well I Sure Learned My Lesson

You might remember me saying on Monday that last week wasn't too bad, and that I had therefore challenged the universe to make this week awful. You might be interested to know that the universe accepted the challenge and it won too. This week has been cataclysmicly (that's not even a word) awful. I've barely slept, a friend of mine has gone away for nearly a week, I have to rewrite a good amount of a story but I can't because my brain is dying. I didn't even want to record a podcast because I'm just so tired right now. In the end I decided I was so tired it was easier to just hit record and talk about things instead of typing them out. Although actually I don't do much bitching about the week or even go into it. I just explain that right now I'm in rough shape, and I also talk some about my writing itself. Including how even though a story of mine is being received incredibly well, a guy said that he hopes I don't put a character in a relationship because he's an annoying know it all. To make things even better, my laptop died while I was writing this post. Great, the thing is still broken. I know I still have my old one, but that doesn't mean I'm happy to let this one die. At least everything is backed up, I guess.

So you don't end up too worried about me or nothing, I put on a pretty inspiring song and did the rewriting I had to do. Now I can safely say the story is better for it. Goes to show you really. Don't allow yourself to wallow in misery and pain. Go do something that makes you feel damn good about yourself.

It Seems Better

My computer that is. You may remember me lamenting my computer issues last week. Not once, but twice even. I didn't want to delete my hard drive and lose all my customisation and everything but I remembered something. My computer has a very nice function where it resets the programs to factory settings, but doesn't affect personal files. This includes customisation. I lost all my programs yeah, but I was able to keep the way everything looks.

Well, I had to recustomise my program icons but that's kind of a given seeing as I had to reinstall everything. I even left some programs I no longer used or wanted out and didn't reinstall them. My start menu is so clean now.

I've not had any real problems with turning it off or on and I actually can't hear the fan much now either. Normally when you can really hear a fan in a computer it's going nuts and you should consider that your computer is a bit sick. Things are going much smoother now and hopefully my computer won't decide to ragequit on me and just die any time soon. Although if anyone is interested I did still buy a small Galaxy tablet. It's kinda old, so it's not great, but it's still pretty nice and I'm happy with it. Plus I can now connect to wi-fi hotspots which means I may even have the internet when I go on holiday this year.

So all in all last week wasn't too bad for me. Despite the fact I never stopped moving, I thought my computer was going to melt, and I barely slept. In the end things turned out okay.

And I just pretty much made sure that the universe is now going to beat me down and make me cry like a little bitch. Ah well.

Come at me universe.
I kinda had something of interest and value to say but then I thought I'd save it for my podcast this week. Then I forgot what it was.

Derp.
