My computer is a dick and other noteworthy stuff.

[freakykat]

I think I may need a whole new laptop. My current one is being stoopid. And slow. And freezing up. And it crashed once already. Blue screen makes me sadpanda. Which is exactly what happened the last time it broke down and then I had to take it to the GeekSquad (thank god I had warranty) and they gave it back to me suffering from amnesia. *sigh*

I mean, I have my little netbook but that's for travel and I can't use it for EVERYTHING. NO MORE WARRANTY LEFT. I can't afford a new computer for real. *grumbles*

So, the fics that I am working on (and I have ALOT, one of which is the first Kradam I've ever attempted at writing) are, like, in dire straits here. (There's that pesky writer's block as well) Backing everything up tonight. JUST. IN. CASE.

In other news, I'm teaching myself how to play the guitar.

.....

That should be interesting.

I use my netbook for EVERYTHING. My real computer crashed last May (I think?) and I never bothered to replace it. I have a new laptop at work that I bring home on occasion, but more the most part, my netbook gets the job done.

Does it? I'm contemplating seeing how much just getting like an external DVD drive would cost and chucking the old laptop away. I like my netbook. It's cute and when my laptop died last April, I got used to it.

But then I went back to my traitor laptop.

It's pissing me off so much right now.

I hope that your computer stops giving you problems. It's a good idea to back everything up. I'm anxiously awaiting part 3 as well as your other stories!!!

The fucker did it on purpose, Dawn. I was all writing Part Three and then it wouldn't play music and then it froze and then...

GRR.

HATE.

I'm very impressed with the guitar stuff!

Let me know if you want me to send you the HP friends and family link...discount!

Thank you. I've always wanted to play but never really got around to taking lessons. I figured I could at least give this a try. :)

Oh. I may want that, yes. THANKS!

Ooo! I like your new layout! Pretty.

But ack! Sorry about your laptop. I hope it stops blue screening on you. :( No losing Kat words! Yay for backup! I think Google docs isn't bad though I tend to just save my fics in progress as a draft in email.

Also, guitar! :D It's so much fun. I hope you enjoy it. Is it acoustic or electric or...?

[freakykat.livejournal.com]

Thanks! I really like it. Nice and calming. Totally helping me right now, lol.

This stupid computer... I hates it right nao. I managed to get my WIP's saved and backed. I'm kinda thinking I'm going to lose alot of the music I hadn't backed up, though. *cries* Though, I'll probably pay GS to back that up for me. I've never used Goggle drafts...might be a good idea.

GUITAR! :D It's an acoustic!

I feel your pain had to take my laptop to the geek squad the day after christmas, because some ass face decided to give me a virus on christmas- what type of shit is that. If it wasn't for my mother having a back up thingy I don't even know what you call it- but she saved the day cause some stuff was saved, But after the geek squad got though with it, it was competly empty and everything had to be installed again, thank god for my Mother cause I'm computer retarted. She installed everything while I sat in a chair crying and watching her.

On a lighter note I think it's cool you're learning too play the guitar. :D

[freakykat.livejournal.com]

That's what happened to me last time, too. EVERYTHING WAS GONE. Like all my programs. I had to download and bunch of stuff. Not looking forward to taking it to them.

I'm sorry about you're computer.

Yeah! It's interesting teaching myself.

Ugh, sorry about your computer issues. Mine pretty much stopped working last summer for a while. I hope you are able to back all your files up.

Good luck in learning guitar. That sounds fun.
