oh gerl!

So get this I recently bought a new desktop because my ancient 2003-4 desktop decided to not boot up. Whenever I reboot the desktop, it would make this grinding sound somewhere either in my cd-rom, dvd-rom or in my hard drive. So finally I decided to get a new one since this one is so old that I’ve been upgrading its internal parts that I’m just too lazy and didnt have the time to reupgraded whatever it is that’s making that grinding sound. So on Saturday I did get a new desktop. I have 2 gb of memory now and around 400ish gb of space. I also had to buy Windows 7 since stores no longer sell XP. Yes I’m old school like that. Unfortunately the return policy is only 7 days on this one. I hope to not return this since I hate returning big arse items to the store since I don’t drive and all.

So while the new desktop was shutting down, it decided to install all these crazy updates. I hate your Microsoft. I hope you die for forcing your users to install something that may not be good for their pc. Today after work, I decided to turn it on and low and behold, my internet is no longer working. I know for a fact that it’s because of those updates that were installed from the night before. I’ve retried unplugging and plugging the network cable ( I dont use wireless). I’ve tried restarting the router. No luck. The other computers connected to the router was doing fine. They were able to connect to the internet without a problem. I even restarted the machine but it didnt work.

I ended up resorting to using the usb wireless stick that I use for my laptop. Finally, I’m on the net. I am so not impressed with this Windows 7 o/s…

So I got the swine flu shot yesterday after work. My arm was sore afterwards which is pretty much normal after getting any flu shot. Unfortunately, today during work, I was not feeling so well. I was moody and had a slight fever. I’m pretty much sure it’s because of that damn shot. I’ve already taken meds for it and I do hope that it goes away by tonight. Nothing like a good rest right?

Speaking of work, it’s been alright so far. I’ve reached my 1 month mark. Kinda crazy. Just a few months ago, I was so depressed and bitching about not finding work. I’m extremely lucky to have found this one even though it’s not exactly what I’m looking for. I do plan on moving my way up where I can finally do some serious web development. Right now, I’m trying not to think about the future and to just focus on my job and my projects.

Life has been pretty good. Have a great love life and a great job. It also still has not snowed in here . Thank goodness. I guess that’s it for now. Sorry I haven’t blogged in ages. It’s not like people visit this site anymore right?
