sometimes I think my bad moods boom electricals
I am so very bored. I tried reading a book but it is boring. I tried playing on the internet but it is boring. so I tried turning on the big computer, the one that in theory has all the games in but in practice has been borked so it won't connect to the internet to tell the games they're allowed to be played. I figured, maybe it would fix itself! Or I could play one and find it works! But nooooo.
Blue screen, and now black. It does nothing. It has the power and the fan noise but no other activity whatsoever.
which was exactly what I sent it in to be fixed of approximately three attempts to use it ago.
It is huge and useless and annoying and I don't even know if it has data in that I haven't backed up because I think there's a back up but who even knows?
So now it is super boring AND requires further work.
And my options for getting it fixed are the place who failed to fix it last time, sending it back kind of sort of almost functioning, or the place that previously epic borked it to the point I swore off them, but have probably had a complete staff change since then.
Or maybe I could just buy a new one. But I don't know if I have the money for that. It depends on if I'm spending it on a house in six months time. which depends on if that plan is even remotely likely to work. which depends on factors unknown to me, so I just have to wait.
And until then, what to do?
When I thought I was moving to Norwich I was waiting to see what computer shops there are in Norwich. And I could still do that, but I'd have to take my large desktop computer in to Norwich on the bus, which isn't terribly likely to be helpful.
the netbook computer has access to most of the... well, some of the same games, but I was playing them when it had the overheating problem and had to be sent back for repairs, and that was ages ago. I haven't so much as plugged the netbook in for months because it's only for going places and doing things and hey, I didn't do that for... two years now.
wow I need things to do.
the lack of things is just... nope, no, can't keep doing this.
need a plan.
