*clings to internets*
Jul. 8th, 2005 02:12 amFINALLY.
I got kicked offline by the Blue Screen of Death about 9pm, and have spent the time since them trying to fix things. Restarted after I was first kicked, signed on, promptly got another Blue Screen of Death. At which point, I unconnected my modem and started to fiddle. I've burned off all the anime on my harddrive to CD, which freed up quite a bit of space. Then I ran Disk Cleanup and Disk Defrag of both my C AND D drives. Also got yet another Blue Screen of Death.
T__T I fear that Solo has come up against his warranty, as it has been 3 years since I bought him, and he's been through alot of abuse. I don't know if it would be worth it to take Solo in to a computer place to get looked at. If I was back in Mo Val, I would ask the Techie Boy for help, but alas, I am not. I can only hope Solo lives and stays online until August.
*weeps*
Now I shall exploit the internets as much as I can, before things die again.
BUT!
I WAS able to watch TV while I was offline. I am going to pimp out one of MTV's new reality TV shows, called: "MTV's 70's House." Basically, a bunch of people are put into one house... but the house is totally 70's. They have to stay in-character as if it is still the 70's; that means dress, language, and attitude. *giggles* It's soooo funny. There's no cellphones, computers, CD players... but there IS a record player, 8-track player, they have Pong! And fondue parties!
And, every time a certain bell rings, they ALL have to drop what they're doing (on the phone, sleeping, hanging out, whatever) and DO THE HUSTLE. The music plays, too. I LAUGHED AND LAUGHED when the bell went off and one guy jumped out of the SHOWER, wrapped a towel around his waist, and joined everyone in the living room to disco.
Watch it just for the funny. It's great.
EDIT...
Kicked while trying to post this. How ironic. x___X
