The Kingdom has a new Heir to the Throne.

Crown princess Victoria and prince consort Daniel had a wee little princess born today. 2 Queens Regnant in a row for us, it seems!

Awesome, dude *thumbs up*

So, my socks arrived today; no issues at all :3

I should probably be sleeping already, yet I can't :S

[Nichi]

I know the feeling, dude. If all else fails, drink some warm apple cider, or milk if you prefer :3

I should probably be sleeping already, yet I can't :S

I also know that feeling. It's frustrating, but finding something to distract yourself seems to help, usually I read, draw or listen to music until I'm too tired to stay awake anymore. As Pent mentioned, sometimes a hot drink helps, though I'd recommend some sort of tea ... mint and chamomile seem especially helpful, but most caffeine-free herbal teas will work.

heating pad! heating pad! ^^ (always puts me to sleep, regardless of whether or not i want to. :\ )

Lying awake for 3 hours in my bed, NOTHING WORKS.

Dat feel bro. :/

Well, my internet at home is dead for no reason, so I had to go to grandma's office in order to post this >_<
Nothing has been said by our ISP as to what's going on, which has me concerned...but, I will be here for our Changeling game tomorrow; even if it means all I'll get to have for dinner is a bologna sandwich. I can have pizza when I get home

Anyway, while I'm out, I dropped in at a garage sale, and bought something for $5 that I have a feeling will make Bella jealous...and is worthy of extra large text:

I HAS A SELECTRIC!

A Selectric II, to be exact; with 3 extra font wheels. It looks eerily familiar; like I crossed paths with one of these in the past.

The funny thing being that, as I was walking toward the table it was on, my initial thought was "Is that a Selectric?" before I was even close enough to identify it further than being a typewriter. Perhaps Bella's sixth sense for stuff like this has rubbed off on me xD

sugoiii *0*

Good find Pentium!  The Selectric II is the best kind of Selectric.  Hey, spell check in Firefox recognizes Selectric!

IBM POWER

@Everyone: Thanks ^_^

Well, using wifi from next door again to check everything. Still no indication on what's going on :\

Back on the subject of the Selectric, I've run into an issue with it; it seemed to be working fine, although not responding to any key presses...until I hit Enter; when it started typing dashes over and over. I've tried turning it off and back on, but it's stuck typing dashes over and over, so my guess is either:

1: It needs to be cleaned on the inside, as the clutch for the "-" key is jammed. Not sure how to go about this
2: Something was knocked loose between last night (When the people running the sale tested it out) and when I got home with it today
3: He senses Fuuka is in the area, and more importantly, that she's running on Snow Leopard, and is attempting to communicate with her

Also, should I get it working, where would I obtain new ink ribbons for it? It does have one, but it's low

[Chocofreak13]

you'd have to check what kind of ink ribbon it takes....they still sell them at staples, in various types and sizes. it's where i got one for my olivetti. :\
