got nothing but time on our hands.

So, I hope everyone had a good Halloween.

I wish I could say the same for myself. Today I ended up rushing to the Geek Squad after my computer wouldn't reboot. It turns out that my hard drive went into failure. Again. This is the second time it's happened. The first time it happened, it was nearly a year ago, and that happened without prior warning, too. (Also? Same timing; early November. WHAT THE FUCK, NOVEMBER?!)

I swear to God, I DID NOTHING TO PROVOKE IT. It just happened all in one day, without prior warning or any clear reason. I had to dig up the spare we kept and reformat the hard drive. I was able to get all of the folders I needed to save, so hopefully I can transfer everything back onto this computer.

I've reached my boiling point. If this computer goes into hard drive failure one more time, I'm getting rid of it and buying something else. Maybe an HP Pavilion (or something like it) or an Apple computer, if I can find a good one. Also? Fuck Dell computers. Never again. This piece of shit's given me nothing but trouble since day one.

(Either that or I'm FOREVER CURSED with horrible technology. I seem to break things EVEN THOUGH I DO NOTHING WRONG.)

At least my birthday's ... technically tomorrow! I don't want to turn 23, but I'm getting my favorite meal out of it. (My mother's homemade red sauce and spaghetti. HOORAY. \o/) Also, TOY STORY 3 COMES OUT ON THE SAME DAY. FUCK YEAAAAH.

If you're looking for cpu recommendations...look into toshiba. I've been using one for the past two years and I can honestly say I haven't had any problems with it(hope I didn't jinx myself)

At this point, I'm completely open to suggestions, so I appreciate it. If this computer aggravates me one more time, I'm just going to buy myself a computer.

Also, just wanted to say that I'm sorry I haven't been commenting on your journal lately. I always read whenever you update, though. <3

If your laptop does crap out again then the Pavillions have good battery life, they last for quite a few hours before the adaptor's needed unlike fuckin Acer laptops... don't get an Acer.

I hear you on the computer trouble front. I'm never getting Toshiba again, but I suppose I should add Dell to the list, too? Looks like my next one will be an Acer.
