A legit-ish entry!

I ordered my glasses last week. They came in yesterday. I noticed while I was cleaning them that one of the lenses was poorly put in, as well as poorly cut... not much I can do about it, I guess.

Other than that, my anti-glare/reflection-transitions glasses are quite nice.

I was sitting around today and decided I wanted a sub. Sure, I had food in the freezer, but I wanted the sub.

So I set out, traipsing down the road towards Subway. I get my sub, pay for it, and leave.

About a third of the way back, a sheriff pulls over and asks me how old I am.

Obviously, I'm supposed to be in school... you know, I'm 17. o.O

Even if I were 17, I wouldn't have to be, I could have dropped out and gotten my GED.

It bothers me that I stand a good five feet away from all cars that pull up, just as a precaution... and the cops are always like "Come here". So I move to three feet.

I gave him my ID... and offered my Hokie Passport as backup. >.<

I'm cold, so I've got the mini-heater on. I need to start cleaning my room and the house before mum spazzes... Gotta order the DDR pad(s), she says I can.

I got Fuhrer back.

He sounds a lot happier, looks it as well.

He even has new feet!

They replaced the keyboard, internal fans/heatsink, touchpad, and feet.

According to the "repair info" sheet, they replaced the LCD bracket.

Obviously, because the LCD housing is still... the same. with those two cracks in it.

Perhaps they figured it was cosmetic, and just replaced the bracket. Oh well, I've made note of it on the letter they sent back.

He sounds like an old car... the kind that goes brrmrmmmrmmrmm.... :/

But he's heaps quieter.

I can't complain too much, it was seriously quick. He got there the 2nd, and was being shipped back to me the same day.

The 'f' key is a tad crooked, though.

Hrm. I'm going to wait and see how the touchpad handles before I give a final yay or nay... If it still does that thing it does... I may be a bit annoyed.

It's always the same.

Always.

Though I've realized part of my problem.

I'm 21, and I can't speak for myself.

Someone asks me to do something, she says yes. She, not me. She's not the one doing it.

If I say no, she starts bitching about how god's going to hate me and this that and other.

Regardless of the fact that I might be completely uncomfortable doing whatever it is, or tired of doing whatever it is.

Everyone talks about "new years" like somethings going to change.

It rarely does.

Of course, I'm Ms. Pessimistic for thinking such things.

So I'm making the obligatory last post of the year.

I don't have much to post about.

It'd be nice if I could be with Dave, because I could kiss him at midnight, but he's up there and I'm down here. :/ Oh well.

People in the ghetto are shooting guns and fireworks... I have some nifty sparklers and those popper things that have confetti. I hope no bullets come through the door.

I'm not going to do them tonight, it's cold-ish.

My computer is STILL in Oakland.

I figure, the last half hour of the old year, I can make a few habits.

I've gotta go do a few jumping jacks and situps, maybe I'll try a pushup or two.

I'll eat my potato tomorrow, and perhaps go get my noodles on Tuesday. I'll let everyone know how the noodles go. Maybe from there I'll eat some soups and some pasta.

Pasta has been sounding good as well. It's really weird. Perhaps my resolution for 2007 will be to eat things that I don't normally eat, like soup and pasta. Not too much, though.

Of course I have to make the John EveryAmerican resolution, to exercise and lose weight.

I still need to order those DDR pads, and verify my Paypal account so I can order the adapter. Stupid Paypal.

Ok, gonna do my situps now. No jumping jacks, her highness is trying to sleep.

There, 25. Woo, feel the burn. Maybe I'll start doing those every day, perhaps before I go to sleep. I'll start at 25, because I'm fat.

I need to buy more lip balm, I lost mine and can't find it. :/

Oooh, I could make a Year in Review Post. Not much to review, other than trends in topics each month.

Meh, I won't.

So as anyone who knows me knows, I abhor soup, and I abhor noodles.

They scare me.

Then why, oh why, is it that I am having a craving for Cup Noodle ramen, a combination of both soup and noodles???

I want to talk to the store tomorrow, buy a cup of the chicken flavored one, and eat it.

They have the shiny Korean bowls, and some other stuff as well, but it's this damn Cup Noodle that my mind is set on.

Maybe it's the salt in it that I'm wanting?

I don't want to be like this person cup ramen and diet coke is NOT a healthy meal...

Maybe ... wait, they're closed. Damn.

I figure this:

If I eat the noodles, then I can't eat my potato. But I've been eyeing that potato for the past since Wednesday.

If I eat the potato, then I can't eat the noodles. But I've had this noodle/soup craving since before Wednesday.

I have to eat my salad tomorrow, no matter what, so salad is breakfast/lunch, and noodles/potato are dinner. Or I could eat noodles/potato for breakfast/lunch and salad for dinner.

This is *not* me.

And for anyone in the ECE department at Virginia Tech, when I say noodles, I don't mean Sanjay Raman.

GRRR

So I went to order my adapter today, Paypal wants me to verify my account to send money that's already in it.

That's ridiculous, all I want is my adapter and soda gummies, AND I CAN'T HAVE THEM BECAUSE PAYPAL IS A TWAT!!!!!!

Rah.

I ordered new glasses today, faxed hp the certificate, they emailed me and said I was missing something, then said it was alright... oh HP.

I called the insurance, I should be insured by Tuesday, and then I can change my birthday back.

I need to see where Fuhrer is, he left today.
