Windows ME and a search engine hit

Thursday, 27 February, 2003 at 10:41 pm

I don’t like Windows ME. It made me kick the compi! Well, I never really liked this compi anyway. I guess I liked it when it was new. But now it’s all old. Hm. I wonder how old it is. I suppose this summer it’ll be three years old. Well anyway.

I was 1: talking to Adam; 2: reading blogs; and 3: browsing Launch Yahoo! thingimabobber. Oh yes. I was looking through the music videos, and went back one page, then it caused some error in some thing, so it closed. Then the music video window caused an error, so that closed, and I gave up and read blogs again.

But there was still a window thingie in the taskbar (if that makes any sense …) but it was blank; the window was just called “Music Videos.” So I clicked on it, and then the IE window with the blog caused an error in something, and then AIM caused an error in KRNL382.EXE (something like that …). ARGH.

Everything was still on the screen, too; the desktop wasn’t showing. I started clicking on windows and nothing happened so I went to restart and it did that Program running thingie, so I said End Task. Waited, nothing. Did that oh maybe three more times.

I started kicking the Start button on the computer because I decided music videos weren’t worth the trouble and that I’d go on my laptop. Nothing. So then I kicked the restart button and waited for the scandisk to finish, and Adam had signed off. ;_; So mean. Windows, I mean, not him.

Hm. One upside to all the problems (or I should just say problem, as far as I can tell all the problems are with the video card thing) on my laptop is that there’s no scanning of the disk when I forcefully shut the thing down. >D ^^;;;

Also. I seem to have gotten a referral from Google for “time pass on net.” Hm. O_o Wha? *ponders about the day when she gets a search engine hit for “wasting time on net”* XP;; Well anyway. I went to the results page for the search. It seems I’m listed second. o.O Right. But something more odd. Under the title, where they put the text that was hit with that search, it says

“… e-mail: @flimsysilence-dot-net @hotmail.com @planet-save.com >-save … faked sick for a long period of time (longer than … get a FREE copy of the BACKSTAGE PASS CD-ROM …”

O.O!!! Whaaaa?! Faked sick? Me?! XP Hah. But then, what are CAPS doing in any sort of relation to one of my sites??? Especially the word “free” and the words “backstage pass” in caps!! O_O;;

*later* Ah, I found out the answer. o.o; *pats Greymatter search function* *huggles it* ^-^’ (note: Livejournal doesn’t have a search function. ¬_¬ or at least not as far as I can tell) CAPS: something about a music show on tv? and faked sick (referring to Hidek :b it wasn’t me!)

augh, troublesome layout

-.-;; Here’s the count now:
modifying the header, footer & sidebar templates: 3
modifying the main index templates: 11
rebuilding the main index file: 14
time spent on this layout: at least a good 6 hours
number of times I slammed my fist on the table: 1
number of times I felt like shaking Portibale silly: 2 or 3
number of windows I currently have open trying to figure it all out: 11

O_O; Well anyway, it’s up. Got bored of the other layout. Although I liked the colors, the image and general layout just got to me. Owell. This layout’s nice. ^_^ BoA.

The lyrics have to do with me giving up on my blog, seemingly. o.o;; Yes, that’s right. I don’t post much in here. And it’s mostly pointless stuff. Oi. I should stop saying oi. I keep writing in my livejournal. And I find myself missing my diary, too. ;-; And I should stop starting sentences with the word “and.” Welll … I don’t know what I’m going to do.

I’m in the mood, give it up

Something I realized. Blogs that talk about how a person’s school day went bore me. Not that I think lowly of those kinds of blogs or something. Hey, I commented on my school day sometimes. ^_^;;; But I was wondering why I read some blogs, and others didn’t hold my attention. That’s just a general answer though. Ahh! Like Beaver’s journal! ^__^ (I know I said something about it in my diary …) “Went to school. Ate lunch. Came home. *next day* Went to school. Ate lunch. Came home. *next day* Went to school. Saw dead cat. Ate lunch. Came home.” XP Yeah. That’s kind of the idea.

Anyway. English starts up tomorrow. o_o *is scared* And I still have to schedule a driver’s test and face the test. *is uber scared*

But at least it’s Monday, and Gregory Smith is on tonight. ^-^

But Matt’s not on right now. Hm. *is all sadlike*

And I still want tATu’s CD. Hm. I forget what else I want. *goes off to make a want list*

I’m just kicking it

I keep not wanting to write in my blog because firstly I keep thinking about the MM class looking here … ^.^;; Then I keep thinking about those people who say … well, like at maddox.xmission.com *rolleyes* I do not write here about the sandwich I had for lunch! Unless it was a really good sandwich that came from a new restaurant. XP

Whatever. I don’t care. I mean. I care. I feel inhibited. This is my site, I wanna talk about what I wanna talk about. Me. There’s nothing else. I don’t have much in my life other than random thoughts and fooood. :9 *cracks up* Okay okay nevermind.

I thought that page on blogs was funny. Because it can be true. But come on, what else is supposed to be in personal blogs? If you doesn’t want to read it, don’t read it. Not everyone can have interesting lives to go along with their bloated egos. And the people with the interesting lives are usually too busy to update blogs. Hahahaha.

mai bloggee?

Adam: So what you doing now?
me: eh. writing an entry in my blog. ^^;;
Adam: having fun?
me: *shrugs* I suppose.

O.o That made me think … I don’t have fun keeping my blog … not true entertainment … but I like it nonetheless. ^_^; How do I explain it? And I am not doing it because “everyone else” is doing it! Um. I don’t know how to prove that. (Tadash is really into proof lately for some reason …) Ah well. I don’t know. What Adam said just made me stop and think. *nods*
