Friggin' Legit

More dang crap freakin heck! The hard disk on Olan, my Macbook Pro, as they say it in the industry, totally crapped out on me! I was minding my own business, watching some videos on YouTube when all of a sudden, my HD makes some weird noises and my entire system freezes up! Long story short, I couldn’t fix it and now Olan’s at the apple store. At least I’ve been keeping regular backups. I also like to think that my computer committed harakiri because I was watching an Aerosmith video. Now before you say anything, Wikipedia led me there. While looking up some stuff about Lost, I found out that the dude who plays Sawyer had a cameo in their video for Cryin’ but apparently my computer didn’t like that idea.

In other news, I friggin ordered my friggin Xbox 360! Friggin yes! I am quite happy, except, really, I’m not. My computer problems as well as finals have succeeded in dragging me down to a more or less neutral state. In short, I have become comfortably numb.

This is my 3rd freakin’ pair. And yet again, my Sure E3c’s have broken. It’s always the same dang problem, one of the ears goes out and I always send them back to Shure and get a new pair free but it’s starting to get on my nerves. The problem is, I can hardly stand listening with any other headphones, even the higher-end Shures. I’ll just see how it all works out. Right now, I’ve got finals to conquer, a birthday to celebrate, a wedding video to edit, and an Xbox 360 to buy.

I like fake Middle English. It can really liven up dull conversations.

KING: ” Squire! ‘Tis it so? “
SQUIRE: ” ‘Tit is, sire, ‘tit is! “
KING: ” Ah… ‘tit is.”

I also, at this moment, really desire an Xbox 360. ‘Twould be grand, indeed, it would.

I just got back from school, where I got second place in our engineering department’s Easter Egg Hunt. The prize was a box of “toasted marshmallow eggs,” you know, the kind with annoyingly cute pictures of bunnies with captions on them like “I can’t stop the adorable” and “I’m not spoiled. I deserve all my stuff.” The first prize that I didn’t win was a $25 Visa gift card. Crap. Either way, it was a lot of fun, and I even found a stray cat in the bushes during my search. No, I did not keep or eat it.
