Eni 1, Techies nil

Hooray! Finally convinced the Techies of what I knew all along - hardware fault. Am getting new, replacement machine. Supposed to be here in about a week. Took a LONG time to achieve this milestone though. Got to see mum get mad at someone other than me or my brother for a change, and tell off one of the Techies who was BSing us. Meanwhile, am back using slow old desktop.

*hopes RP problems regarding those adversely affected resolve and smooth over soon cos she hates seeing people she likes and respects get upset and angry, espcially over something as small as an RP* There are things to be angry about, e.g. 300 people dying after being held hostage in a school for 3 days. Then there are things that just aren't worth the effort. Is my opinion. On that note: I hope everyone is all happy again now. *hugs*

Topped up mobile phone, finally. I feel awful and guilty for not being able to answer Uli's texts for nearly 3 days :( Well, I can now. Discovered that topping up is really very easy, which is nice.

After all those daytime national rate phonecalls to the Techie helpline, I think I need to revive myself with coffee and chocolate. *goes to fetch*
