Okay, in really bad mood now
Jan. 4th, 2009 08:41 pmOkay, I bought a laptop and got wireless internet and my e-mail working. SO IT'S NOT AS BAD AS IT COULD HAVE BEEN.
Just... GAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sorry, had to vent.
So I called the Fujitsu Siemens support guys and they were awesome to answer so fast on a Sunday. They said I should run the recovery disc and select "install OS" instead of "repair installment" which I did yesterday.
Okay! This will purge all my files (e-mails, videos, pictures) but at this point WHO CARES! I just want my computer back!
Only problem is: now when I run the disc it gets stuck in the middle and won't proceed to the part where you get the option of install or repair!
So I've tried that about twenty times. Don't know what that means. Did the computer somehow break between yesterday and today?
It's really annoying. The guy said if the computer keeps refusing to run the disc then it has broken and I need to hand it in to the store for repairs.
Which means future costs (which I don't really care about) and trying to get a hold of someone with a car who can drive me and the computer to the store (not dragging it on the bus again, that was just so uncomfortable and heavy and I'm too cheap for another taxi ride again so soon.) All of these logistics are annoying!
The laptop is awesome, but I never wanted it as my main computer. It's supposed to be my special toy; for trips, for back up, and in case I'll ever be too sick to get out of bed.
I just want my desktop back. :-( I know I'm being silly, but stuff like this really gets to me. I mean; no money, no candy, no film on TV, that I can pretty much deal with. But take away my computer and I get really upset.
I don't start work until Wednesday, which means that tonight is the equivalent of Friday night. But I don't exactly feel in a Friday night mood right now. I'm way too cranky.
And slightly frightening thing: I keep thinking "If only I had alcohol. Then I could get drunk and relax and put myself in a festive mood."
To end with positive things:
Last night I went to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
elenhinstar and got my Christmas presents: really nice glasses, tea mugs and coffee cups that I really needed.
Today I went to the gym (since I didn't do it yesterday due to computer troubles) and I had a great workout. This was good for both the mind and the body.
Just... GAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
