Well, Bryan and Mom are gone. You know what that means... Cokes in the morning and blogging from Imperium. Imperium being the newer computer in the house, being the computer which could not also pass for a heap of scrap. However, since Bryan's final words to me as he 'hugged' me (more like a gentle headlock) were 'Don't fuck up my computer' I won't be doing much with it besides listening to its music and blogging from it from time to time. It is about ten thousand times faster than Malfactor, so I also think if I used it too much I would get used to its fastness and using Malfactor's slow ass self would become too much to bear.
Then again, Imperium has its share of annoyances. Bryan has Kazaa, and Bonzi Buddy, which means ads are popping up in my face all the time, even when I'm not visiting a freeserver page.
But he has a lovely keyboard which actually works when you hit its keys, in stark contrast to several keys on Malfactor's board, which must be struck repeatedly, sometimes with sledgehammers, in order to be recognized by the computer (this usually happens with the 'A' key, and of course the left, down, and right keys on that pad have been rendered completely useless due to a fatal Coke spill many moons ago--caused not by me, but by my brother knocking over the cup). The resolution is also gigantic, because Imperium's screen is gigantic, and I do not dare change it because honestly I have no frigging clue as to how to work Windows XP. (Malfactor is running 98, and if I had my way he'd still be running 95--the only reason we upgraded was because he flat out refused to work with it anymore. I expect he would choke on XP anyway, the poor old bastard)
Nearly at the halfway point for Clarity's next chapter. Intending to reach that point and then type it up and post it, and then finish other minor updatey things, soon. And then Kurai will have its update. Yess.
I was meant to go to the doc today for a physical (Rhodes requires it, as do most other colleges), but apparently they can't fit me in until the 28th. Rhodes wanted the form by the 15th, but oh well... nothing I can do about it. -_- I just hope the person I see is a woman.
