Q: Is Otohiko dead?

Org Profile · Post by **Otohiko** » Mon Oct 06, 2003 8:24 am

(for those of you who give a crap)

A: Somewhat.

Well, at least not quite completely.
Shit seems to come in piles, and the last month for me was definitely a mess... from bouts with the University Registration System of Doom to colds, to a lightning strike damaging my router and effectively cutting my PC off from the internet...

Actually, it didn't end just there. As I suspected all along, my new PC turned out to have a series of problems that required professional attention (which, I hope, is what it's now getting). While I was dealing with that, a new bout of illness fell upon my lately-ailing health, effectively leaving me quarantined in the now-Computerless Space Groove (aka my bedroom), with nothing but my trusty CheapLP (tm) Guitar to entertain my sorry self (which, I must say, it's done well).

I'm a little better now, returning to school (only to find a pile of assignments that need finishing), and I hope the P[iece of]C[rap] returns shortly as well.

***

So, as you can see, the moral of the story is:

I'm not quite dead, and still relatively sane. But my health sucks. Surely, this has to be the last time I spent a summer cleaning schools and wasting away in front of a PC instead of strengthening my immune system in the Great Outdoors...

I will likely return to my regularly-scheduled anti-Devil-Worship activities later in the week.

Cheers 8)

PS - wow, it looks like I've been away, the mods did a good job and cleared a good 500 posts from my nastily useless postcount.

Don't worry, KC carried on with you.

If KC is a reference to my Preferred Band of Terror, I must also add a...

NOOOOOOO!!!!

I just found out that their next tour (3 weeks from now) is not coming anywhere within 500 miles of me

Well... I guess all I can do now is buy their DVD...

At least you're happy w/ the situation. Lots of people started bitching about losing post counts. I sort of started complaining but then I didn't care.

Dude man, that sucks. My favorite band (Symphony X) is coming to Iowa in December. And only about an hour drive.

Hey,

I figured the reason you haden't been on was at least somewhat school related. But seems you've had an especially unlucky time. Well glad to see that you're back!

Eat lots of fruit and vegetables, get plenty of sleep, and get back on the forums damit! >_<

Sorry you've had teh sick, and the issues you've had with your PC. Hope everything gets turned around and back to normal for you.

PS, they have a new rule for sigs, check site announcments.

Hmm... quite a new rule. Ah well, we'll sort it out, looks like change of sig is in order. As for the postcount - hey, I took it for nothing out of the ordinary. Like I said, I'm not really in this as some sort of contest.

Speaking of things - I'm not back. Yet. Not officially, at least. I only have limited access to school computers, and potentially (though not likely) the family computer. My own machine is still in the shop, where it's likely to remain until Wednesday or Thursday, which in the language of Store Clerks and Repair Technicians actually means I'll be lucky to have it by Friday.

Still, too bad I'm missing some of this

At least it seems people still remember me
