Cold pizza. Breakfast of champions, and the perfect way to start the day. :3: Best part is I didn't have to be paranoid about there being any left because my sister's fattyfatfat babydaddy finally moved the gently caress out, so food is no longer being inhaled in Kirby fashion from our fridge!

I got a new motherfucking computer! :dance::dance: And a proper computer chair! I'd been using a kitchen chair for almost a year. Several times today I've just stopped what I'm doing and spun around and round for a few minutes- I'd forgotten what a joy it is to be able to swivel in place.

And my niece got The Lion King soundtrack :3: We spent all day rocking out to Be Prepared.

This is actually from like the day before yesterday, but I finally got an update on why the company that services my cochlear implant won't loving fix it! :dance: Sure, it's a setback still, but at least now I know why they won't do it instead of them avoiding my calls to set up an appointment to get the programming remapped. (For the curious, apparently as soon as I turned 18 I reached some magical age where they suddenly had no more obligation to fix my poo poo and dropped me like a hot potato. Due to several years of good luck on my part with my poo poo not breaking, I did not find this out until just recently. I'm 21.)

Okay, I think that's ridiculous.

It is, but what can ya do? I'm just happy to know why, It was loving maddening not knowing what the hell was going on while they were giving me the runaround. Apparently, now I have to go direct to the audiologist who implanted the internal part of the cochlear implant in my head way back when I was 6 if I want to get it remapped. So yeah, the people who fixed my ability to hear from the age of 6 up until the modern day told me to gently caress off when my stuff broke :v:

Turns out we've been slightly overpaying for our cable all this time. We exchanged paying for Showtime (which we didn't know we got and didn't watch anyway) for Cable Internet :dance: 9 megs per second, baby!

Said girl has shown further interest, and I've come to the realization that I actually, genuinely like her too :unsmith: (Sounds like kind of an assholish thing to say but after getting my heart broken I was a bit :emo: so this is a genuine surprise for me.) I hope it works out. I feel like a 13 year old all over again, I'm all nervous and paranoid about what I say/do that might screw things up.

Shoulda done more, even 4 is pushing it these days. I know I'm moving up from 4 as soon as I can afford it.

I'd love to, but apparently all this motherboard will accept is 4. I'm saving up to build a completely new computer from scratch with a minimum of 8 gigs, if I don't decide to go balls out and slap as much into it as my version of Win7 can handle. Go big or go home :whatup:
