Alienshareware Strikes Again

Alienshareware, because like shareware, it's prone to stop working in 30-90 days.


After an hour and a half on the phone with their representatives today (Manuel from Kooba and Adanira or some shit from Puerto Rico), they determined what I'd decided about ten seconds after I first had the problem: That I'd have to ship the computer to them for repairs. This will take about three days for it to get there, fifteen for repairs, and three to get back. Essentially even though it's getting fixed I'm still out of a computer for a month.


Oh. And they decided it was the motherboard.


Stupid goddamn motherboards. Why do I have such shit-luck with mobos?


Speaking of which, I'd just order up one for my tower and have it in about two or three days, but I have a $100 dollar book I have to buy for a class that I only have twice a week. I might just go peek at the ISBN number and see if I can't save some money online.


So nothing's really happening, other than I got some nice silver bling-bling on my face yesterday morning when I was cutting class. I can't possibly get any cooler.


Oh wait.


When I'm graduated and have a job contract, living in my awesome apartment in Canada with the best Canadian girlfriend ever in my pimptastic daysuit with perfect teeth and great hair cooking a special dinner for my gally, I'll be cooler.


Because it's colder in Canada. Duh.


Oh, and I'll wear suits to work everyday, but drive a motorcycle and use a cane. It'll secretly be one of those cane's that converts into a sword in case there's some mad student rampage, but I won't tell anyone until AFTER I take out some mad student rampagers with it.


And even though I'm a teacher I'll be rich. Thanks to abusing the American bond system and Jeffy's very adult idea for raising money on the internet.


Then I'll kill all of you for being stupid enough to not kill me first. But not really. Only the Polish kid.
