Driving

  • Listening to: "We Put A Pearl In The Ground"
Finally, my laptop is working once again. With the help of so many people (thankyouthankyouthankyou), it is now rebooted, reconfigured, updated, restimulated, reconnected, replatoniumbomb, and rewhateverelseit’scalled…

Soon I can get my regular interweb life back on track!~

So I just got my learners permit (and in two months I’ll be old enough to get my license, haha) and my parental units and I were heading over to my brother’s place for Thanksgiving and I got a turn to drive. My turn lasted two hours.

The first hour was a breeze and went by in no time. Parent #1, who was sitting in the passenger seat, would make discreet hand motions when I needed to slow down, switch lanes, or back off a little from the person in front of me. Parent #2 was busy yacking away on the cell phone.

Then they got off and started scrutinizing (more like freaking out at) every little thing I was doing. This is pretty much how it went down between the three of us (and miraculously, I was able to keep complete control of the car):

Parent #2: OHMIGAWD YOU’RE GOING TOO FAST; SLOW DOWN!!!!
Parent #1: No she’s not, she’s doing fine.
Parent #2: YOU’RE TAILGATING!
Parent #1: No she’s not, dear.
Me: I haven’t gotten closer than two seconds of the car in front of me…
Parent #2: WE’RE GOING TO GET PULLED OVER! ARE THOSE FLASHING LIGHTS UP AHEAD? OHMIGAWD, WE’RE GOING TO GO TO JAIL!
Parent #1: Don’t listen to your mom, Kitty; you’re doing wonderful for your first time on such a big interstate.
Me: Thank you…
Parent #2: I’M SORRY, GAWD! I SHOULD HAVE NEVER LET HER GET HER PERMIT!
Parent #1 and Me: What is wrong with you?
Parent #2: WHY DO YOU KEEP TAKING ONE HAND OFF THE WHEEL?!
Me: Because you’re making me nervous and my hands are getting sweaty…
Parent #2: THAT’S IT, PULL OVER ON THE NEXT EXIT!
Parent #1: How about some music?
Me: That would be lovely, thank you.

That’s really how it went down. Driving had never been so exhausting to me before.

I think the best part about this trip so far is that I got a chance to work on my fan fictions (and these amazing sour gummy eggs I bought at a gas station)…

Most Annoying Virus EVER

I now have a virus on my main user account on my laptop (I am currently on the guest account - thank gawd I didn't delete it even though I wanted to). It's called "Antivirus Protection Pro" and it is trying to sell me virus protection for $30 a month. Pssh, no.

It won't let me open a single program; it's slowly driving me insane. Scratch that, I'm past all levels of insanity and I might just go rabid since there seems to be no solution to my problem since I can't even open anything without it being closed after a second!!!

To make matters worse, it keeps pulling up only two websites without my permission (they literally appear out of no where at the most random and inconvenient times): an advertisement site for Viagra (yum?) and a porn site (go figure).

How am I supposed to write my fan fictions when I can't summon Word to stay open longer than eight miliseconds?! HELP ME!!!

:star: EDIT :star:

Thank you everyone so much for all of the help!!! I have a generally good idea of what to do now thanks to y'all (now I don't have to bother my geek friend for help...not that he would help to begin with~).

I'm going to do my best to use everyone's advice and get back up and running. Or I could just ask for a new laptop for Christmas... - note to self: revise Christmas list -

Happy Holidays!
And for those in the states: Happy Turkey Day ~gobble, gobble~

Why do we even have dads in the first place?!

My dad believes that Jariya is G.I. Joe who was stranded in Vietnam during the war and grew up to be a hermit, only friends with toads. Finally, after being seperated from humankind for so long, he met a woman and went insane. Destroying all his morals, he became a pervert.

I must give the guy credit. He's trying to get into anime because he knows I like it, but he's doing a horrible job at it since all he can do is compare everything to other cartoons from my brothers' times (like TMNT and shit).

Daz 3D Attempt

So I'm currently trying out the Daz 3D art studio that I saw advertise here on deviantart and I've officially created a monster.

I don't know how I did it, but I suddenly twisted the figures leg completely backwards. I started crying XD I'm that pathetic.

I watched the tutorials (or at least tried to) but nothing makes sense. I just wanna do it my own way. I feel like the husband that won't ask for directions...

FAIL =D

**EDIT**

Oh crap, now it's blinking...WHY IS IT BLINKING?! I don't understand this T3T is it supposed to blink??

This thing is gonna jump out of my computer and kill me for mutilating its body, I swear...

**EDIT (again)**

It just walked away...I think it had enough of me...

Oh, whatever

I bought a pack of 12 "sex" bracelets (6 white and 6 black) a month ago.

I only have 3 black and two white left because people keep popping them. I didn't even know that there was a game behind them until a girl insisted that I flash her because she popped the white one.

F my life.
