I seem to have gotten YIM working again. Still all shaken up over what happened this morning though. :/

Also, now I'm scared about Stew being missing and all (or, you know, signed in as online but unreachable). Kinda panicked that he got locked out of his room or something. ><

@Bella:
I know Pidgin will occasionally eff up with messenger clients entirely, but it's usually resolved by the next version release.  That's probably why they update so frequently (prolly the closest a normal program can get to update as frequently as an antivirus).

@Choco:
Yeah, Skyrim has a thing about dragons - it spawns a f**kton of them.  Seriously, it's like "3 in-game days since you fought a dragon?  HERE'S ANOTHER!", they effectively killed any epicness dragons have in that world doing so.   They scale to your level, which means that early on, even friggin' MUDCRABS can kick their ass.  I do enjoy the fact that hostiles belonging to different factions actually attack each other, makes the game feel more alive... and easier if you need it.

So yeah, I thought I'd be able to post when I came home from work, but that 12-hour shift killed my knees, shins, and feet.  I couldn't bring myself to walk to the keyboard after that. 
Maybe I should become a town guard in Skyrim.
  So yeah, I go in again at 7 tonight for another 12 hour shift, but you know it, I'm excited to go back.  I actually enjoy working there, and I'm very happy to come home feeling the pain.  It's a feeling I've missed for awhile, the feeling of work being done.  It's the feeling of productivity.

i realize the joke is rather old, but given that i had an actual knee injury, i felt justified. -w-

@dan: glad you're getting that feeling of accomplishment. i'm sad to say that only one of my classes currently gives me that feeling; i'm hoping that i'll warm to the others over time but i don't see myself as joyful as i was last semester. >>;

@nej: given that the horse isn't assigned to attack anything, i found it rather impressive that Daisy the paint horse decided to say "COME AT ME BRO." (she almost killed it, too.)

so i just finished the draft of my paper about this book (which was actually very good, i'd like to get a copy eventually since i took this one out from the library), now all that's left is to dig out the Olivetti and type this bad boy.

considering going to the store to buy potatoes and bisquick. figure that will feed me for awhile.

There's a person downstate who's selling the equivalent of a tiny PDP-11 computer. (Well, PDP-11 compatible, close enough.) PLEASE EMAIL ME BACK RANDOM CRAIGSLIST PERSON, I HAVE PARENTAL PERMISSION TO BRING THIS THING HOME AND EVERYTHING. ;O;

Holy crap, Bella; I hope you get that. That sounds awesome ^_^

Just got up from a long work recovery period, and I feel a lot better.  Feet still feel weird, but I'm good, especially now that I'm done with work until next week.

@Choco:
Since the horse is your friend/belongs to the horse (or whatever faction it is) faction, it will always be hostile to whatever is hostile to you.  I can't quite recall if they'll attack hostile people or just animals/monsters, but it's largely a carryover from Oblivion.  It's still pretty cool, though. :3

Quotei realize the joke is rather old, but given that i had an actual knee injury, i felt justified. -w-

At least you had a context in which to tell the "joke".  Most people are content just to spam it in even the most awkward of situations.  It's like kids who hammer square pegs into round holes.  It would be great if people learned MEME ARE NOT REPLACEMENT FOR SENSE OF HUMOR.

@dan: people are stupid, don't you know this? :3 they'll input a meme whenever they want to sound funny either because they're lazy or they can't come up with anything on my own. xD

as for the horse, what made it cool was that she had 'parked' the horse, which usually means that Daisy would stay put and do nothing; she's very good about staying where she's told to. instead, Daisy wandered over to the dragon (which was a good 200 feet away or so, so it's not like it was in Daisy's vicinity) and proceeded to attack it, without any direction. xD

@bella: good luck ;^;

SO MUCH POSTING WHILE I AM ASLEEP, WHAT THE FUCK GUYS >_>

So, this morning got off to an interesting start

I went to the post office to check my PO box (Nothing has arrived yet, BTW), accidentally leaving my cell phone at home. When I got back, I found that mom called every single phone in the house trying to get in contact with me; which made me think this was something truly big and important. Truth is, she wanted me to install Microsoft Outlook on her desktop, so she can check her work e-mail at home; important, yes, but not worth calling every single phone in the house over >_<

LOLZ?

Also, my maths studies seem to actually be working now. IDUNNOLOL.

If I don't get an email reply by tonight, I'm probably going to send that seller another one.... things like this make me paranoid my email account isn't working properly. >>
