I really hate those sites with the 'you must disable adblock to continue' screens. They're always loaded with a billion ads and my pop-up blocker goes berserk. Oh and they never have the content I was after.

You and me both. Makes me want to stab people in the face.
I'm going to get off my soap-box now, and let you get back to your day.

Fiddlesticks, the tip of my Bamboo Stylus just split open. I've only had it for 3 months.

Curse you Wacom and your "profit off of breaking rubber tips" money making scheme!

How did that happen? I've been using my Wacom Bamboo Fun for more than 3 years (and we have wonderful memories together where I constantly abuse the tablet) and it's still just fine... only the tip wears off.

If it's only the tip, isn't it replaceable? Mine comes with another 3 additional nib/tip (and another one from the store as a bonus).

It's not the Wacom tablet, but the Bamboo stylus you use directly on the ipad. The tip is very hollow, almost like a balloon.

It could be it got smooshed in my backpack...though I try to keep it protected.

I don't understand. Do you mean a Wacom Bamboo stylus for Wacom graphic tablet or a Wacom stylus for iPad? Oh well, we here usually say that you just got "a birthday present"... a defect product that got past through the QA. If it's just three months, shouldn't the warranty still valid?

I totally forgot about the warranty! I'll look into it. Thanks for the reminder.

I never thought I'd have to link to TV Tropes again, but this might as well call for a pot hole.

I'm revising my script. A quick search showed me that my production class model currently has... 89 class objects and still counting. There is no way this is going to go down smoothly.
One Province Minor - 120 class variables and still counting!

Because there is no such thing as too many variables.

This is amazing!

I'm feeling a bit better in terms of being depressed at night. Today was especially interesting because it was my younger brother's sixteenth birthday party, and we did all sorts of stuff like play Capture the Flag (which completely failed in the flat, empty suburban landscape, but it was fun nonetheless) into the night. My two best friends (who, though one is my age [18] and the other is 21 [though she gets along well with people of all ages], get along with my brother very well) bought a large Justin Bieber cutout from the mall as a joke, and it has definitely earned a place in our home as a way to freak people out. (Me and my friends put it in the bathroom and my sister just about peed herself when she opened the door and it was there.)

So yeah, the point of saying all this beeing I'm feeling a lot better. XD With my mood improved a bit, I think I might be able to get more writing done like I've been wanting to. I think tomorrow I might listen to some music that inspires me and just see where that leads. (Every time I listen to "Winter" by Caroline Lufkin, I just think of a ton of stuff regarding my kenetic novel project.)

I basically bought about 5 different things from this guy on ebay. They were listed buy it now for maybe 1/4 of their real value. I was originally ecstatic since normally I'd have to drop 100$ a piece on some of these, and grabbed some for my own collection and to resell, figuring better me than someone else. (ebay price gougers)

Problem is...I'm talking to him via email to buy stuff privately and he's really nice. ;_; He knows the value but is just letting them go for cheap so they'll go to good homes, it was decided with his young son too. Now I feel like i can't resell without feeling bad. Even worse is i know the other girl who bought stuff from him listed the items for close to 400$ on livejournal. She spent maybe 80$. I hope they don't know their stuff just got relisted for profit despite good intentions... i know i'm not gonna be able to resell it now.


Also i keep pushing 'post new topic' instead of new reply. Why is that button right there next to it? It drives me crazy.

Aw man, I HATE when stuff like this happens! ;_; I have a huge guilt complex so I don't know if I would be able to do it either ;____;

Examples:
Life: "Here, have five dollars on the floor."
Me: "Yes! Five dollars! But... wh-what about the poor person who dropped it?! ;_;"

Life: "They want $1400 for their B13 Sentra."
Me: "Well, since it was in a mild accident and the body is all banged up, I'll offer a more fair $1200."
Life: "They accept!"
Me: "Yay, but... I FEEL SO GUILTY THAT I DIDN'T PAY THE FULL AMOUNT ;___;"

Life: "Art show! You win the best award!"
Me: "OH MY GOSH, YAY! But... ALL THOSE POOR OTHER ARTISTS WHO DIDN'T WIN! ;__________;"

and compassion and pity and sacrifice which have been the glory of his past."

Today, I hurt my foot grocery shopping (don't ask), and now I'm limping around my house on an old pair of crutches because it hurts too much to walk on. /epic fail

Sometimes, I wonder how I made it to be as old as I am.

My own body is currently the thing irritating me.

Why did I think it was a good idea to be allergic to air for 1/4 of the year?
Hayfever sucks.

I feel sorry for people being allergic to birch. Which btw, is VERY common in sweden. You see the pollen everywhere, on tables, on the asphalt, on the grill.
However,
I sit alone and wait for the inevitable doom for me that is grass pollen. I tremble. Really. :wink:

PFFT. Not only am I allergic to pollen, but a good portion of fruit. Like apples. And I love apples. 8|

Edit: I thought I should add it's only raw fruit. If it's cooked/canned/preserved/whatever, I'm good.
