Still MIA

[senashenta]

The Staples people told me their turn around was a day or two when I dropped my computer off, and since it had been three days yesterday, I called them to inquire about my PC... the woman I talked to was apologetic, but said that the guy who normally does the work was out with a back injury, so mine hadn't even been gotten to yet. She said I should get a call tomorrow (which is now today) or Friday about it at the latest.

First of all, whether there was someone out with a back injury or not, there are several people who work in the tech center doing the computer repairs. If he couldn't make it in, they should have called someone else in. Or at least called the people who were waiting to let them know. You shouldn't give out "you will get your computer back by ____" dates, when you can't deliver on it.

But I know that things happen, so I'm giving them some leeway. If they don't call tomorrow, I'm going to call them back again, though.

So right now I'm still computer-less and using five-minute blips on Sarah's to do journal entries and check me email and whatnot. Which means that I won't be able to catch cassandracenta until Sunday, since I won't have my computer back until tomorrow night at the earliest, and she's going away for Saturday. :P

Maybe I'll try scribbling out a scene without my computer... it will probably kill my hand, but whatever. ^_^;; Tendonitis sucks, by the way.

ANYWAY.

About the only other thing that needs reporting on it my hand! ...which is much better, thank you. ^^ Once the antibiotics kicked in and started clearing out some of the infection, I could start healing properly. Now the scratches are all healed (except for the faint pink lines I'll have for a while), and so is one of the bites-- I heal fast when I get a chance! lol.

I have three marks left that are still scabby (the two big bites, and one other smaller one that got infected, too), but other than still being a teeny bit swollen and red right around them, they're coming all great. I only really even notice they're still there when I bump them on something.

Also, right around the area of the bites, my skin is REALLY dry, and I'm not entirely sure why. It might be because of the antibiotics (which also make me quite sick to my stomach, in case I haven't mentioned it before), or maybe just because of the infection... who knows. I'll deal with it when the scabs are gone and I just have more scars to add to my collection. XD

Honestly? I find the number of scars I have amusing, myself. ^_^;;

OH! And I was fiddling with the random P.O.S. stuff I had hanging around, and putting it all into boxes, and LO AND BEHOLD, the box for cat_mcdougall is full and ready to ship! Actually, it's a little more than full. ^^;; Mostly because there's a bunch of stuff in it for her kidlings...

The ones for etcetera_cat and kierseth still need some stuff to finish filling them, but I figure they'll be done pretty soon. I can probably finish them and get Mom to stop and mail them on the way out of town next weekend. WHOOT. X3

And on that note... ONE MORE WEEK UNTIL ANIME NORTH. ^__^

EDIT: OMG CSI season finale tonight! *flails*

I remember when my laptop died and went away to be fixed for... was it one week or two...? Felt like forever anyway. I ended up visiting friends not for their company but for their net access o_O;;;;

Ummm, do you remember when you posted my stuff coz I've not had it eyt and I'm tempted to ring up Royal Mail and give them a verbal poke to see if its sitting around in the sorting office. I don't trust our mail system at all. I'm allowed to say that, I used to work for them XD

And have you entered the raffle for a custom pony at the MLP forum? *waves her virual 6 tickets* ^___^

Oops! "virtual", not "virual", though if I win I think that gives me an idea for a custom....

Sorry, not been actively online for a while, so you get to put up with me rambling o_O;;;

I mailed it a couple of weeks ago, but it could take a while longer. When I mail stuff to etcetera_cat, it can take anywhere from three weeks to three months, depending on the time of year. :P

If you want to check, though, you certainly can. I kept the reciept, just in case.

OMG PONY RAFFLE? *heads over*

On second thought... I need the address. I don't have it on this computer. |_|;; Ahaha...

*is way too dependant on her favorites folder(s)*
