What a night
Dec. 13th, 2006 12:35 amThings went from zero to what-the-fuck very quickly. x__X So much for a quiet boring evening.
First, the wireless I usually use is still dead, so I've been trying the other networks floating around. One was okay, but it kept dropping me and was generally slow and crap. Now I'm on the dial-up, but it won't connect very fast at ALL. Last night it was doing over 44.4, and now I can barely kick it to 28.8. Grrrrrrr. But at least I'm online and not getting dropped every two minutes.
Second, I cut my hand pretty deep (on my thumb knuckle) on some glass. I cleaned it and made sure there weren't glass bits in it (a candle got too hot and the glass holder thingy broke, and I cut my hand on the edge), and got a bandaid on it. But it was still bleeding under the bandaid and now there's that red spot I can see and I hate that. *shudder* It kinda freaks me out to see blood stains like that under bandaids, since it always makes me think I'll bleed to death or something. And because it's in a funny place I had to sorta cinch down the gaping edge of the bandaid with medical tape. >_>;; Better to be safe than sorry.
Then, one of the candles flared up and melted (it was on a plate so nothing caught fire except the wax), but dad saw it and he tried to grab the plate, so hot wax spilled all over the carpet. Then he yelled at me like it was my fault and the fire alarm went off. Guh. I just smothered the candle and shoved him away and cleaned up the mess myself. There's still wax in the carpet even though I cleaned up most of it, but I googled solutions, so tomorrow I'm gonna attack the carpet with a hot iron and paper bags.
And now I just saw a big spider (or bug or crawly thingy) creeping near the ceiling, but it was too high for me to kill. x__X;; It crawled off to behind my closet, so I hope it stays there and doesn't drop on my face in the night while I'm sleeping. Now I'm paranoid and keep scanning the ceiling every couple of minutes.
Maybe I should go to bed early or something.
