"Tech Support" Post

My computer turned one year old this Thursday, October 18th.

I regret ever buying this FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT.

. . . Well, maybe I'm being too hard on it. Could be just the video card is a fucking piece of shit. Or maybe it's just Bon Voyage. Damned if I know.

You see, this is why I need a three day weekend. Not even my Saturdays are anywhere near relaxing anymore. *growl*

Less "Grawgh" News

-->Saw the "Transformers" movie last night. Definite "don't think about it too much" special-effects-dependent action flick, but a darn good one. The transformers were damn cool. Though I gotta say, I actually liked Bumblee's first form better than his updated one. The old 1977 Camaro just seemed nicer. *shrug*
-->Said movie reinspired the BTTF/Transformer drabbles88. I'll post it once I can find a prompt for it.
-->I've been tossing and turning a lot at night these days -- dunno why. Last night I somehow managed to wriggle out of my pajama pants. O.o
-->shego2drakken has posted a prompt for backtothefanfic, stating that you should write a story around a movie/TV series/whatever it is that pops into your head when you think of Halloween. Now I want to do bits of "Silent Hill Valley" and "American McGee's Marty" again.
-M: Oh, come on, Vic!-
-D: You've never played "Silent Hill," anyway! And you never will, I'm sure.-
Which makes me lean toward "American McGee's Marty," yes. But I do have an idea for another fic where you guys are watching horror movies together on Halloween, and the power goes out. . . .
-VD2: Is this that "trick-or-treater" fic you mentioned wanting to do when you wrote "Halloweenie?"-
Might be. I've got a variation where it's Dave who does the freaking out, and it ends with him being chased by a furious Doc and Marty.
-HD: Humor fic?! Write it, write it!-
I suppose I do owe you.
-->Speaking of Halloween, boys, we have to make plans. What do you want to do for costumes this year? A theme, or just throw on whatever's available?
-VD: Actually, we do have a theme in mind -- it's based off of RPD's "costume" last year.-
O.o?
-OD: *tentacles chatter* Going as other roles Christopher Lloyd has played.-
Ohh, hehehe. That sounds fun. Same with you, Martys?
-M: Yeah, why not? I mean, we can make a "Frank Bannister" costume with clothes we already have.-
*snork*
-J2: We're not sure if we're just going to go random or try and find out what other roles Elisabeth Shue has played.-
-J: I mean, kind of useless to try being alternate versions of Claudia. . . .-
*nodnod* How about you, Victor? You gonna join in the fun?
-TTV: Oh yes. I already have a costume in mind. *mysterious grin*-
Ooo, cool. Okay, we have decorations all ready -- what about the pumpkin?
-TD: We're teaming up with Victor's friends this year -- they love a good Halloween celebration.-
-TTV: Oh, they'll celebrate at the drop of a hat. But yes, they do like Halloween.-
Getting any other stop-motion friends to help? ;)
-TTV: I hope so! I'd like to introduce Scraps to Zero.-
*giggle* Nice. And candy, what shall we do about candy. . . .
-DW: We have plenty of time to decide on that. We can poll our other selves at the Inkwell now too.-
-RPD: We're very glad you thought up that place, you know. It's nice to have a spot to relax with everyone.-
Awww, I'm glad you like it. And I'm really sorry about this whole situation with the Sims, RPD -- I don't mean to put you out of a job.
-TD: Out of a job? He's in charge of RPGs, isn't he?-
Yeah, but what --
Oh, yeah. Changeling.
-RPD: It's a rather awkward thing to poke you about, I admit.-
Can't be that much anymore, since you learned about those Artifice Contracts.
-HD: Damn you, White Wolf, for making up very interesting and useful superpowers.-
:p
