people what need to STFU
- Dennis Hastert: listen mofo, stop the double-speak and the CYA machinations. Cooperate with the FBI fully. If it is revealed that you or any of the other Congressional GOP leadership covered up Foley's activities with the intention of maintaining political power, may John Walsh beat you senseless with a rubber hose.
- Stephen Baldwin: I don't give a fuck what happened to you after 9/11. Your pompous, thick-headed frat boy interpretation of Christianity is disgusting. It's nothing but an excuse to spout anti-intellectual, racist, ignorant, violent diatribes. If the God you believe in truly existed, He'd sear your fucking mouth closed. Asswipe.
- Li'l Jon: YEA-UH! Your fucking 15 minutes is over, dickweed. Piss off and get off my radio.
- New York Mike: I swear, I'm going to print out 12 "ask me a question" coupons, then I'm gonna go to one of the fetish shops in Hillcrest and buy a ball gag and manacles. And if Mike even thinks about asking me more than 12 friggin' questions in a work day I will shove the ball gag in his mouth and shackle him to his workstation JUST so I can get some goddamn work done.

what gives?
A few observations:
-While my harddrive is unsalvageable, I was able to extract much of my music collection off my ipod, with the help of nifty software. This is good.
-Many of my stories are safely stored online, which I hadn't realized.
-OK, lots of my digital photos are gone but there are a couple of good ones stored on photobucket or on LJ's scrapbook. It could be worse.
So why am I so cranky today?

it isn't only merely dead, but really most sincerely dead
My hard drive, that is. I pulled it out of the old computer, switched the jumper settings and hooked it up to ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
virginmartyr1's computer. It appears in the device manager but there's no information under Properties. When I hit the setup menu on startup and tell BIOS to autodetect the slave drive, it comes up as unreadable.
I will be very upset if I can't salvage any data off the old hard drive. Financial records, years of collected recipes, music files, photos, icons, my Dexter mood theme... lots of irreplaceable stuff.

the sick, she is a drag
I've had a virus of some kind since Tuesday evening, which is normally nothing remarkable. However, this one has sent my equilibrium completely off. I lean over to put on my socks and feel like I'm going to fall on my face. Yay.
I had a truly classic visit to the doctor today:
Doctor:(Feels sinuses)
Me: Ow.
Doctor: (feels lymph nodes)
Me: Ow.
Doctor: Yeah, you're sick.
I love her honesty.
Apparently, having congestion in one ear and a progressing infection in the other can cause a sensation of leaning to one side when walking, or of the room spinning. Who knew.

this is stupid
In my recent move, the power cord for my dekjet printer went AWOL. I figured I'd call HP to ask where I could get a replacement. Bad idea! The dork tech support person asked if I just wanted to buy a new printer, then tried to transfer me, at which point my call was lost.

OK. Now I can't comment on my friends entries.

You've gotta be kidding me
Received from a family member:
Subject: RE: God is Good! If I don't get this back, I will know you really didn't read it. I got this from someone and thought the last part was really a good thought. Too bad that the person who sent it to me did not know 10 people who would admit to knowing the Lord. If I send this to you, please send it back so I will know that my friends do know the Lord. I don't think I know 10 people who would admit they love Jesus. Do You Love Him? This is a simple test: IF YOU LOVE JESUS, SEND THIS TO AT LEAST 10 PEOPLE, INCLUDING THE PERSON WHO SENT IT TO YOU!This sounds like a bunch of junior high bullshit.

Stupid train
Derailment repairs are happening, and the commuter train was back on the regular schedule this morning. However, there was a mudslide north of Miramar that shut down service north- and south-bound "until further notice." Fortunately for me, one of the regular commuters had a car and gave me a ride to work.
Here's hoping everything's back to normal by the time I have to go home.

Brilliant realization: it helps if I actually use the correct template for my experiment, otherwise my data is pretty much guaranteed to be bad.

Stupid sinuses making me feel bad. Stupid people at work making a relatively simple procedure twice as complicated as it should be. Stupid Cox for not letting me log in to read my email for much-needed distraction.
