I've never had to do anything like that; the family dog (A really old chocolate lab) scares off the raccoons and such

there isn't much to be afraid of here....and what is, we don't disturb. but we do make sure the cats are inside. :\

I think I'm going to go to bed now; since there's no telling how early we'll actually be leaving. I'll likely bring Asagi with me; for something to do during the journey, even if I won't have internet access

Night, guys

Chocofreak13

night.

found out earlier that i can use the irc. but i haven't tested it at home, though, so i still don't know how it'll turn out.

also; got my grades from the previous semester, and things are looking grim. so i've been freaking out and crying slightly for the past hour. i KNEW i shouldn't have taken that 6th class, even though the counselor pressured me into it....

not to mention she said it was a sophmore class, when it turned out to be a junior class. >:[

ho jeez, just get a have-a-heart trap. >>;

There's no way my pistol would kill it... the caliber is probably large enough to be fatal, but the gun just isn't powerful enough to take out anything larger than a squirrel. (Which I've never done, btw - mostly because we haven't had a squirrel problem here since last year.)

Speaking of grim + school, I'm personally extremely pissed that I'll have to put off college for another year due to NOT HAVING MONEY due to HOUSE BUILDING. It's times like these that I sort of wish we'd used the money to lease out a nice apartment or some shit and put the rest toward my education... and other things. (Like food! And gas!)

On the other hand, I've given up my noble ambition to get into mathematics (at least now, I'd like to do that when I inevitably go back to school in my late 20s, thus fulfilling my lifelong dream of being a lifelong student) for the, uh, ignoble goal of studying... actually, I don't know WHAT I'll be studying, I have to see a counselor at the university and ask about rigging up an Interdisciplinary Studies major so it reads like the New England Heritage Studies minor. Long story short, I won't be attempting to enter any sort of fast-paced high-competition job market and my major will all but guarantee my unemployability, so I can take my sweet time with school. =W=;

i wish i had your dad. he sounds so much nicer on these things.

if i can't go back, i pretty much won't have a purpose in life anymore. :[

If one wanted to disturb...
My neck of the woods is a major thoroughfare for deer and moose, but we don't have any wolves in this part of Uppland - those are only further east.
As for deterring animalry, just blazing fires work pretty well.

I just got my tax refund.  Netted me £580.30.  Noice.

Well, we didn't leave quite as early as I was expecting...

I already have Asagi packed for the epic journey, so now I just wait on somebody to give me the word to finish getting ready. Until then, there's some new videos from the people I'm subscribed to on YouTube...

EDIT:
Also just had another scare involving 2k. While I was waiting on a video to load, it suddenly stalled. Then, everything started working fine...until my taskbar disappeared and the graphics where thrown into that ugly Windows Basic mode. Shortly after, a spontaneous crash with no BSOD, followed by her self-rebooting, stalling during POST, and then giving a "No Boot Medium" error.

After cutting power and then turning her back on, she seems fine...although I'm really considering RMAing this SSD and just getting a proper HDD. It may be crazy fast and have a near-perfect WEI score, but it's causing more weird problems than it's worth.

Chocofreak13

@pentium: when a system works, it doesn't need to be replaced. (aka, why did you replace the HDD in the first place??)

also, my mum wasn't as mad as i expected (of course, i woke up this morning and remembered that she failed statistics in college 6 times.....so no one's perfect), meaning that this could be alot calmer than i had anticipated.
feeling a bit better, if a bit annoyed because we had a screaming match over 'what counts as a joke'. >:\

Yes.
It stopped smoking shortly after, so I'm assuming all computers of this type smoke a little bit the first time they are turned on?
