Why does my computer hate me?

My editing system is acting up again. Why does this always happen? WHY DOES THIS ALWAYS HAPPEN?!
I am pissed. Really pissed. I have a deadline to meet. I have assignments to hand-up. And what does my NLE do to help me? It starts acting wonky. Squawks like a strangled chicken while staring up. Comes up with mysterious error messages. Flashes the BLUE SCREEN O' DEATH every once in a while.
I have been nothing but nice to it. I defrag ever month. Update my virus scan. Religiously delete emails with exe attachments. Refrain from installing interesting but ultimately non-vital programs.
I AM PISSED.
I don't know why it's doing this. I didn't install anything. No viruses. There's NO FREAKIN REASON. But then the past 20 times I've had to reformat my computer, I didn't know the reason either, so feeling of helpless rage is not new.
I am getting too good at this - I could do it with my eyes closed. I really wouldn't mind doing it, IF I HAD THE TIME.
I would smash something, if I had something cheap and breakable. Maybe when I finish this bottle of merlot. I'll even put it in a plastic bag so it won't make a mess.
Sigh. I am so restrained even when pissed.
OK, So now I'm off for a 3 hour installation spree. Whee. Yay. Hooray. Lalalala.
At least I have this bottle of wine to keep me company.
When you next hear from me, I'll be posting from a brand new OS. - Respect women 2002-04-15 20:13:48 Hey DiemondDagger, way to go. I say you're showing a lot more substance than the guys in your class.

Cats are not supposed to look about disdainfully while music is pounding the walls, and people coming up to you are shouting over the noise to introduce themselves. This cat should have been panicking and removing strips of muscle from my forearms trying to get away.

Stop it! The spooky monkey-man is looking at me!

I am such a wallflower at parties.
I went to somebody's birthday bash today, and the best part of the evening for me was not when the drunk girl in the sexy cheongsam was dancing the lambada with some hiphop guy, or when the guy from Mauritius with the delicious Creole accent was talking to me, or when some guy dressed as Obi Wan Kenobi made like he was spanking the fairy with his lightsaber.
No, the part I enjoyed the most was when I came across the neighbour's cat. I gleefully captured it and carried around the house where people were getting fashionably high until my arm cramped.
And then I went home. At 8.30 pm. Yay, me. - 2002-04-13 07:42:55 Mr Writer, why don't you tell it like it is? Why don't you tell it really is? ~ Stereophonics
