I've threatened all my RL friends that if they send me that email forward with the "Look in the left corner - see anything wrong?" picture where the ghost pops out at you and screams, like, EVER - I will fucking kill them. I think they got the hint. Power is good.

I'm posting in here because I can't update my blog or do ANYTHING except for go into internet explorer. Why? Because we bought Norton Antivirus, I accidentally Quarantined this file that was apparently the basis for launching EXE files, and now I can't launch a single program (except this one, oddly). The message Windows cannot find sysrnj.exe. This program is needed for opening files of type 'EXE file' shows up. I need help with this, I must update Surreal, I must Beta-read the Ginny fic I was sent, I must make graphics! I'm going fucking nuts! Even worse, the instructions on the website are confusing and deal with system registry stuff, which I have no clue about. I would print it out and try it, but we're out of ink so that's a no-go. Not only that, but apparently there's a chance that all my files will be corrupted while fixing it, and my 200+ Dan pictures would be deleted, which is utterly tragic, to say the least.

Why was I so stupid to back up all my files except for my Dan pictures, my graphics, and my MP3's when those are the only ones that matter to me?

Drat and drat.

I don't know who to go to for this. Lauren's undoubtedly too busy with her being effortlessly cool, and I'd ask Tera but then her dad would probably have to come over, and that'd be too much effort, 'cause he's busy and stuff. I'd ask Jim but after our falling-out about 9 months ago, I hardly want to ask him for anything. I could ask my mom to ask the computer geeks at her school, except that she distinctly told me she "didn't want to talk to them".

I'm dead. I can't get anymore dead. I'll never figure it out. Waaaaaaah.

However, because of my very dead computer, I actually finished all my homework and did a bit of TaeBo last night. It was fulfilling.

I'm sorta miserable, 'cause the treadmill is broken. Apparently it didn't have enough lubrication and was being over-used. Ha! I guess that's a good thing, but I'll have to wait another week to be able to use it and I'm depressed without it.

Holy hell! Surreal has reached over 5000 hits. Oh happy day, I remember back when it had 17 hits. It averages out to about 1000 hits a month, which is all too awesome. I know it's not that much, but I still feel special.

In other news, I have nothing to do but finally finish ch. 14 of Draco Sinister. I can't believe it's taken me like 6 months to get through the first two fics. I suck. Then again, I got through all of Draco Dormiens in eight hours back in February when I decided to skip school and read it, so I do rock. I rock indeed.

Matt Hardy has a girlfriend. One named Andrea. Good for him, I say. *is secretly jealous* If this was 10 year old!me, I'd be dying of jealousy. But I'm not, because he's a freakin' celebrity and it's not nearly as bad as I'd be if, say, Dan-lookalike had a girlfriend.

Random fact: the only kinds of pants I wear is jeans. I have names for them all, based on the things I hate about them. There's the jeans that are too baggy in the legs, the ones with the hole on the ass, the ones that are too stretchy, the ones that are too worn-out, the ones with the design on the ass, the ones that are too short, the ones that are too low-cut, the list goes on.

And I've ran out of coherent things to say.
