Things are not looking good for my dear old comp. Bugger. I am a chatting fool when I am online, so naturally a good chatt-program is important to me. I used to have Miranda, but it stopped working on me. So I used Trillian instead, wish I have been using before. It worked fine, until a couple of weeks ago, and that to stopped working on me. So, instead I downloaded all of AIM, MSN messenger, ICQ5 and Yahoo Messenger. Should work then, right? Well, guess not. It worked sort of good, but since my comp is so old, it froze again, and again, and again, and again.... I had to continue to restart it all the time. Really bloody annoying... So today, while Peter is at work I decided to reformat the C drive. Done it alot of times before, and it usually gives my old comp an energy boost. And it worked very well this time to, I'd say. Until I was going to the Windows Update site... It didn't wanna work for me. So now I don't really know what to do... If it continues to give me hazzel, I can't download the important patches and all the stuff... Not good. Damn, damn, damn....
Of course this had to happen the day after me and Peter discussed bying a new comp. We did that last night. If doing it, Peter is going to take the new one, and I am taking his (wish I am using right now). There is only two probelems: The kind of comp that Peter wants, minimum requerments of his, would cost between 10000 and 12000 swedish crowns (1245,80 USD - 1 494,95 USD). THAT won't be easy, since all I get a month from the unemployment benefit society fund is 4500 swedish crowns (560,61 USD) a month... Tough times, indeed... I hope my old comp survives..
On another note, I found this. It is sooo true, and it sure put a smile to my face. :-D
You know you are a Xena-fan if:
1) To solve problems with people who irk you, you've attempted The Pinch.
2) All problems, gods, monsters and warlords are solved in an hour or less.
3) It's a bear or a dipper.
4) You've taken styrofoam plates, cut out the centers, attached them together and made a chakram to toss at people who annoy you. Or just have giggles with.
5) You remember watching the commericials for the Legendary Heroes catalogue and thinking 'Ohhh if I only had the money!!!'
6) Callisto wasn't crazy. She just wanted attention.
7) You could spot when the same stuntee was used in multiple episodes.
8) You remembered actors as peasants one week and they were now kings or gods the next.
9) You giggled when Lucy or Kevin said cere-miny for ceremony.
10) You did more crunches to get Renee's abs.
11) Even if he was annoying, Joxer brightened your day
12) Instead of screaming on a roller coaster, you ended up yi-yi-yi-ing.
13) Your best friend is shoter than you and you like it that way
14) All of Xena and Gabrielle's intended love matches with men, always had red shirts, or something red on them and mysteriously ended up dead.
15) It tickled you when they slept near each other.
16) New character's annoyed you but then grew on you.
17) You squeel in delight when you spot an actor or actress from the show on another show or movie.
18) You still wear your Xena merchandise.
19) History is much more facinating to you.
20) You join Live Journal communities to look at things like this.
21) Two words: Meaningful Glances
22) You watch re-runs even though you have the complete series either on dvd or first run VHS. (As in, taped when it was first aired)
23) You're a stronger person today than you were because of Xena.
