The iPod is officially gone. I hope the dickwad that decided to liberate it from my possession appreciates all the hours of Supernatural, Avatar, Battlestar Galactica, and Stargate Atlantis on that thing. Crap. That was the only gift I got for my b-day. *sniff*

Also, on the fritz? My computer. This is the first time it's managed to stay on for more than ten minutes since early this morning. Now I really *do* need that laptop. I hope to make moves toward the Apple Store tomorrow morning.

And let me not forget the stomach virus (noro?) that's been making the rounds in my family. My great-grandmother came out of the hospital with it, my grandmother, aunt, and one of her kids suffered through it, my mom had it a couple of days ago, oldest bro has some mild GI symptoms, and my stomach's growling like an ankle-biter trying to scare off a letter carrier. We just came back from CVS, where we bought four bottles of Pepto. I'm pretty sure we're going to finish them off in a hurry.

The year's coming to a close and I don't think I met a single resolution I posted back in January. The lesson learned? Don't make resolutions.

This next year I hope to a) keep my job while not burning out (Lord help me), b)travel more (or save for a trip to Hawaii in 2009), c) meet more of you folk (Atlanta, anyone?), and other stuff that I'll most likely think of when I don't feel like crap.

I just tried to post this and my internet access went out. There's, like, this vast technology conspiracy against me, I swear to God.

Be well, be well, and be well, folks. It's been a pleasure.

I'm so sorry to hear that you 2007 ended on such a sour note. Hopefully, 2008 will treat you much better and the technology conspiracy will suddenly vanish.

*grin* Thanks. I hope so as well. I keep having flashbacks to the Terminator movies. Hope this year is infinitely better than the last. :)

Man, so sorry to hear about your ipod and laptop! I nearly had a heart attack when mine got a virus last month. We'll definatly be meeting up when I move up there (3weeks!)
Be well, feel better!

I figured out why my PC was misbehaving (no HD space left at all), but I still need an upgrade, as it's going on eight years old and I've removed all but the most essential programs previous but it's still giving me difficulties. The main thing to salvage was my fic links. :)

And here's to seeing you up 'round these parts. Yayz!

Holy crap, I'm so sorry about your iPod. That must suck, I know I'd be sad AND pisssed.

Also, sorry I haven't mentioned it already, but thanks a lot for the card! I wish I would've remembered to send one too, but I really appreciate the thought!

Thanks, and I'm glad you got the card. :) I had to send something, it being your big date and all. *grin*
