Oh and my right hand is infected. Got a bloody big cut last week and the damn thing went and got infected. Now my right hand is a reddened mass of pain. I'm on antibiotics but for a man who works with his hands, it's not a good thing.

How the FUCK do people deal with weekdays? With the so-called everyday? Games don't work no more, watching series neither. Could try to start taking evening walks. Can't sleep 12 hours a day now can I?
So what now? HELL.
So what now? HELL.
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.

got a call from the people who ran my internet while I was in Uni.
They want their money.
now, this isn't surprising, since I haven't received a sing,e bill form them Since September, when I got the damn thing. Keep in mind, everyone in my rez had to get internet from the same provider, and THEY all got regular bills in the mail.
I mention this fact to the lady on the other end of the phone (i'm in the middle of the city, on a long-distance call on my cell phone at the time).
She tells me, I have been getting ELECTRONIC BILLS.
they were being sent to the myhtical e-mail adress I got when I activated my account. and, naturally, never used again because why the hell would I need another email account.
naturally, I have 0 recollection of this account, or its password (given that I've seen it once in my life, in late September last year).
Now, i'm not averse to paying htese people. they have provided me with unlimited bandwidth and high speed for 8 months. (they think it's 6 for some reason, go figure). In fact, when I first signed up with them, I had my credit card ready to set up automated withdrawals and everything. but, NOOOOOOOOO, the guy said "we'll send you a bill and you can set it up yourself through your bank or something".
And then the woman wanted my credit card number, OVER THE PHONE. I'd have no issue with this, except, i'm in the middle of the city, walking home. I ask her "can you call me back in 40 minutes, once I get home?" NO. can you call me tomorrow? NO.
Oh, and they expect their money by Friday, and I have to call them.
never mind the fact ti's gonna cost me long distance, never mind the fact i'll have to spend 30 minutes being bounced around departments.
And I don't even know what my account number is, because all that paperwork, as well as the modem is packed away back at uni, and I won't be seeing it for another 4 months.
goddamn idiots.

Under the moderately annoying category: keep forgetting awesome things, which are really awesome, except that I forget them because something minor but attention-grabbing happens. Argh. Really frustrating, 'coz it's happened a few times over the last few days. I'm obviously too busy. :S

Meh, either work out a payment plan, or just pay them when you can. Because basically what can they do - repossess all your downloaded pr0n? Stop you from using another provider? Unlikely, as they'd have to go through all that credit related and debt chasing nonsense to do that. Give your name a bad credit rep? Same again, they have to jump through hoops to do that, giving you time to get your shit together.

I have 8. I need at least one more as the 8 are full and can't hold my current collection plus any future expansion.
And this is after buying 4 more from Ikea earlier this year when I unpacked all my stored stuff in my new place.
I have a problem.
