First thing that happens? My computer goes tits up. Okay, technically it's my fault but still. My brother got a shiny new processor for Christmas, so we decided to put his old one in Aldaris (even hand-me-downs from my brother are better than what I had before.) So the processor goes in as well as a new video card (also had to buy new RAM but he needed an upgrade for that too anyway) and we try to boot. We were expecting Windows to pitch a fit but not THIS bad. So Windows won't load and now it's just a mess. I bought an external backup drive and I'm giving that to dad today so he can save the files and then we're just gonna have to wipe Aldaris clean and start over.

GUESS IT'S TIME TO SWITCH TO WINDOWS 7 :|;; except first a need a copy of it.

So until that happens, I'm stuck on Rufus when I'm not at work. Rufus and his tiny keyboard and tiny monitor... at least I figured out how to hook him up to all of Aldaris' peripherals. But he's not that fast and there are a lot of things he just can't do in general.

TIME FOR POSITIVE THINGS

i have no actual PS3 games yet (although Darksiders does come out soon) but I do have old PS1 games! :D Technology! Yes! I downloaded FF7, FFTactics, Jumping Flash, Wipeout, Twisted Metal 2 and Wild Arms 1 and 2 from the PSN over the weekend. For only $50. Some of those stupid games go for 100+ online.

Also, guess what comes out this weekend in Japan? Birth By Sleep! :D

Last weekend might have been balls but this coming weekend has promise!

Happy New Year! It's 2010! The year of Luxord! XD *shot*

Not a bad evening. Ashley, E and Pete came over and we broke in the TV and PS3 by playing Advent Children Complete. Which we paused to open up a bottle of sparkling cider (shut up, it was all we had aside from the rum and that's not going to work) and watch the ball drop on tv. Then turned the movie back on. XD;

And now it's 3 in the morning, I'm still feeling like a truck ran me over and I AM GOING TO BED.

Just so we're clear, 2010: I'M PUTTING YOU ON NOTICE. BE AWESOME.

I'm groggy, doped up and sick at work. Which is extremely slow. So I stole this from Stella.

Give me a character and I will give you my:

+ OTP for them.
+ Runner-up pairing.
+ Honorable mention(s).
+ Crack pairing(s).
+ Ship everyone else seems to like, but I don't.

Pick a fandom, any fandom. Keep me from falling asleep on my kb.

Thank you everyone who left me happy birthdays! ^__^ I had a very nice, relaxing day and am now resting off a serious tummy ache, lol mom stuffed us so fuuuulll....ooohhhh... ~___~

But we watched The Colour of Magic DVD that dad got for a stocking gift this morning (after some bad Canadian comedy..Trailer Park Boys or something idek my brother and dad like it. one of the main guys looks EXACTLY like Danny Valentini.. it's creepy). Tim Curry's crazy grin always creeps me out and Jeremy Irons actually made the Patrician look good. lol Also, ilu Death. <3

Then Grandmom and aunt Carol came over and we opened presents.

My parents.. gosh, the really blew it out of the water this year. And just this once I'll forgive them for combining my Christmas and birthday presents 'cause they got me a freakin' 32inch flatscreen TV.  *_______________* IT MADE ME SO HAPPY OMG YOU HAVE NO IDEA. So I think what I'm gonna end up doing with the money and gift cards I got from other people is  to finally buy me a PS3. FINALLY. YES. I told myself I would get one when I got a new TV so now I have no excuse. :D *does a dance* wheeee!!

My brother got me the other Best Present Ever: that freakin' awesome Marc Echo Boba Fett jacket mmmmm. bless his heart, I know those things aren't cheap. I scared my poor grandmom half to death with it tho. I had the hood zipped all the way up and grandmom, who doesn't see very well, asked me to come over so she could get a look. So I leaned over and was like 'HI GRANDMOM IT ZIPS ALL THE WAY UP ISN'T THAT COOL????' and she about flailed out of her seat. Sorry, grandmom!! XD

( And for everything else... cut to spare the flist from my materialism. )

So between it all, mom stuffed us full of food (ham dinner, followed by pie, followed by coffee, followed by cake OH MY GOD MY TUMMY) and tonight hopefully I will sleep like a log.

Tomorrow is SHOPPING! :D I need to get a couple belated presents, maybe look at PS3s and dad was talking about buying a new cardtable; we played Pictionary on the one they've got now and we were just waiting for it to collapse into it's component parts. (dad and James beat me, mom and Carol at the game, btw by pulling it out on the very last square and winning the All Play, the dogs.)

And that is it for the night I believe. I hope everyone had a good holiday or will at least be enjoying the long weekend. All my love!

Happy Holidays to my flist, one and all! :D

Something small I just noticed that made me smile: I use VLC instead of Winamp on the lappy and it's icon is a little safety cone. I looked at it just now... and the cone has a itty bitty santa hat on it. daaww. <3
