Confussing days. The world gives and takes, indeed...

[kseenaa]

Alright. Both good and bad things have happend. Lets start with the good things, because they happend first, so this is actually getting chronological and all.

I got a job... Yes, stop your cheering. It is not a very good job, but still. I will take care of kids for one hour every monday teaching them to dance really simple folklore dances, play and have fun to music. I get a little bit payed for this, but not much. At least now I have something to do once every week. I bet the unemployment benefit society will make a fuss about it, though. It does give them more paperwork.

More good things. We have talked a long time about getting a new car, me and P. And today we went over and got our loan and bought it. It is a really sweet car. Volvo S60, manufactured 2001. Soooo smooth to ride and drive. Old Betsy, our Volvo 740 that is litterary fallilng apart will be either sold as a trainging car to my cousins or brought to the junkyard. It IS falling apart.

So, all good and well, no? No. When coming home after a day of car-shopping and having cake at P's aunts (she had her birth-day today) we where both in very high spirits. I went to turn on my computer and...

Nothing. It is dead. Not reacting to anything. P thinks it can be one of two things. First thing, it will be not to big a deal to fix and the part is not to expensive. If the other, well... If that is the case, I will be without a computer of my own for about two months, because that is how long it will take before we can afford to buy a new one. Blah.

So here I am. Extremly happy I got this tiny job and our new car. And extremly sad that my comp went and died on me.

Confussing times indeed.

Woohoo you got a job, and I don't care it's for one hour a week and doesn't pay a lot, it's the first step and YAY!

and *hugs* for the comp, hope it's the first thing wrong so it gets fixed quickly.

Grattis till jobbet det är en början och det ena kommer att leda till det andra. Hoppas det går att fixa din dator snabbt!
*kramar*

Precis. :-) Om inte annat så har det gett mig en start på ett kontakt-nät. :-) Folkdanslaget jag skall jobba för vill att jg skall börja dansa med dem på deras träningar, och då kan jag ju fiska jobb bland dem oxå... Det börjar röra på sig. Sakta men säkert, men ändå. :-)

[kseenaa.livejournal.com]

Indeed, I agree on that. :-) Might be tiny, tiny job, but it is something. And I am sure it will lead to something great. :-)

Well I'm happy four your little work... It is nice to have something to do...

And as for the computer... Been there... One day it just didn't start anymore... The harddrive, well they said it was more life on a graveyard... Have lived with an old one with win 98 for the last 4 mounths... then I got a newer computer for christmas... that acctually can handle Win XP... I am SO happy... So I suffer with you... Really... Computers is one good way to make time fly... And I know you really need that...

A tip is just to wait a bit and try again... they seem to have a way of working if only they are in the the right mood...

Sadly, rest didn't help this one. P has orderd a part that he'll put in it. He seems positive it will work, I on the other hand, well... Consider we just bought one expensive (but oh so very very lovely) car, it wouldn't suprise me if this thing just gave up on me, since we lack the money for a new one. :-P

[hedwig-dreams.livejournal.com]

Well perhaps you don't have to have the newest most state of the art computer... Just as long as it takes WoW huh ;)... Mine is not so very new (old office/school computer I belive... But I just love it cause it can run all my favorite programs and then some ;)

[kseenaa.livejournal.com]

I definitly don't need the best of the best. If worse come to worse, P is going to build a new one, we'll get away much more cheaper then. Not to mention, he knows what I do on my computer and can build one that can take that easily but not more then that, ya' know? :-)

[hedwig-dreams.livejournal.com]

Yeah well... I know what my bf would do... get more then I needed... but hey... my computergeek may not be the same as your computergeek :P

[kseenaa.livejournal.com]

Well, at least we have a computer-geek each, don't we? Good to have they are to. ;-)

[hedwig-dreams.livejournal.com]

Not when they install Linux on there computer so I can't make my icons to the icontest on the weekends... >_<... Oh bummer... Well at least he gave me a computer that works...

[kseenaa.livejournal.com]

Computers that work are always nice.... *pokes dead comp*

[astroflammante.livejournal.com]

Great news on the job! Even if it isn't much, it's a start!

And here's a toast to the health of your computer! I hope it does as nicely as mine did; it spontaneously healed itself. *grins*

[kseenaa.livejournal.com]

Indeed. A small but tiny start. :-) Sadly, my comp still hasn't healed itself. Seems this time it needs a bit more work then just resting. :-P

[godiz.livejournal.com]

Well it's better than nothing. I work once a week too and it feels good to have something to do. I'm also lucky enough to be working at a library so that feels extra good.

Ooh! A new car. Nice. I'm planning to get myself a driving license this spring. But I don't think I'll get a car in the near future though.

Ah! Crap-a-doodle-doo! Hoping for the first alternative.

[kseenaa.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I really like that I finally got something to do... that pays to! I am hoping for the first-alternative for the comp as well... Keep you fingers crossed, eh? And I was out driving the car today... It is as smooth to drive as a pleasant dream... If one can fall inlove with cars, I think I fell for this one. :-)

[chigrima.livejournal.com]

Congrats! ^_^You'll make top notch folk dancers out of the kiddies in no time. ;-)

*holds fingers crossed for the computer*

[kseenaa.livejournal.com]

He he he.... :-D Thanx to both!

[tekiila.livejournal.com]

Great news about the job even though it is only for an hour.

Computers can be evil things.

[kseenaa.livejournal.com]

Well, gladly P could fix it, the cheap way, so my dear comp is working again. :-D Thanx for sending a thought this way! :-D

[chigrima.livejournal.com]

*celebrates mended computer* What had gone wrong, if I may ask?

[kseenaa.livejournal.com]

Takes this in swedish...

Nätverksaggregatet hade gått och sten-dött. :-P Vi köpte nytt för 500kr, och nu fungerar den utmärkt igen. Tom en aningen tystare. :-)

Skönt att höra!!!! ♥
