Jesus Fucking Christ, Amazon. I'd have my book by now if I had just bought the thing now. Don't fuck me about with screwed up pre-orders if you want my fucking money.

Hello, soldiers, look at your mage, now back to me, now back at your mage, now back to me. Sadly, he isn’t me, but if he stopped being an unascended mortal and switched to Sole Spice, he could smell like he’s me. Look down, back up, where are you? You’re in a warren with the High Mage your cadre mage could smell like. What’s in your hand, back at me. I have it, it’s an acorn with two gates to that realm you love. Look again, the acorn is now otataral. Anything is possible when your mage smells like Sole Spice and not a Bole brother. I’m on a quorl.

I had some candid talk with my father and grandfather tonight.

AND LITERALLY EVERYTHING I'VE EVER KNOWN ABOUT MY FAMILY IS A LIE.

ALL OF IT.

AND TO BOOT, MY GREAT-GRANDFATHER IS PROBABLY AN IRREDEEMABLE NAZI.

HOORAY.

Called it.

For myself, it seems my old PC is gradually tumbling down into the "not worth repairing" category after being mishandled for 3 months by normal people

A new one is in order.

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

You mean it messes with your groove how unbelievably excellent it was, and you are sad you didn't direct it?

Because I can't imagine any other way in which SKYFALL could mess with anyone's groove.

A friend died on tuesday morning. Attending his funeral tomorrow. Seeing someone younger than you pass away is not a feeling I cherish.

Gaah, goddamn laptop.

Every time I turn it on, it logs me in with a temporary file, which for some reason takes ages to set up before I can restart it.

Randomly, I can get back into my account, but it doesn't seem to be consistent - even when I delete the temporary user files, it just sets up a new one the next time I log in.

Using Windows 7 - if anyone knows how to resolve this, PLEASE let me know before I hurl it out of the window.

Also I have a headache, and my 2 yr old has been running me ragged without a rest for the last 9 hours, with no signs of flagging yet...

So that's the story. And what was the real lesson? Don't leave things in the fridge.

Hope you're doing ok, Gothos, what a terrible situation

After participating in the musical bump out today (where about half the cast didn't bother to come and those that did fucked around) and being one of the last to leave, I want nothing better than to come home to a quiet house. It is not.

If you have an installl or recovery CD now is the time to use it.

It sounds like you have a registry / system issue. And while you can TECHNICALLY fix anything, the real solution is a system reinstall. Back all your shit up, and get a fresh start.

If you don't have a reinstall CD, you can probably browbeat your vendor into giving you one (because there was a big court case in the last 5 years that mandates they have to give it to you).

Messing with my groove is my really universal malaise that's ruining my life right now. Nothing is fun. I have no motivation. I can't be bothered to do anything that does not immediately impact my life (like going to jail).
