As I get more and more accustomed to spending all of my time sleeping and working, it’s getting harder and harder for me to put aside time for work on the site. And no, this isn’t the “I’m giving up on the site” speech we’ve all been expecting to hear for almost two years now. No, I’m just saying that I’m unhappy that I can’t devote whole days to writing articles anymore. And the fact that my computer is going nuts at the moment is exacerbating things quite a bit.
Time for an explanation, methinks. Well, for one, it’s a struggle to just get the damn thing to boot up. It’s got this problem where Windows breaks while loading and immediately restarts right as the error screen comes up. This produces an endless cycle of restarting, with no way to know the cause. And once that gives up and lets me sign in, it seems that my profile has contacted some sort of bug. Oh, and not just any bug. It’s a real annoying little bastard. You see, it makes it so that if I even so much as think about opening a web browser, the whole damn thing grinds to a halt. I’ve sat through this once, and it seems that it’s just taking a real damn long time to load, but everything else is slowed like hell too, so it’s not like I can even do anything else while I wait. I have no idea what caused this problem, because it was working fine a day ago, and only just in the last 10 hours has this problem arisen. Also curious is the fact that I hadn’t done anything questionable in the last while, unless using BitTorrent to download anime and burning CDs can screw the hell out of a computer.
On the upside, I can still use other profiles to work the internet, so I can still update. But it’s going to be real annoying for me to do anything else I use the computer for, like downloading anime and video game soundtracks. The fact that I can’t access my files and use the internet at the same time is going to really piss me off after about 5 minutes, so I’m going to have to get to the bottom of this one quick.
In other news, I finally got my PayPal account set up. Hooray for me, I can finally buy things online. Only the goddamned Homestar Runner store doesn’t accept PayPal. Or it does and I missed the option. But I’m pretty sure it doesn’t. I’ll have to check again after I’m done typing this. I really want a Trogdor hoodie.
