Well, all appears fine once again post-reformat. Computer is even going into hibernate mode w/out problem and all that:P *rolls eyes* Asquared check went fine and defrag as well.

However, there's no telling how long this will last. So I figure on monday, I'll take it to the computer store to get checked out -- they claim to be able to tell if anything is wrong even if it isn't acting up and it's just 40 dollars for a diagnostic. Stupid school repair center's prices seem outrageous compared to this place's 75 an hour if something is actually wrong. That and not really trusting anything at this school farther than I can throw it.

So that will give me this weekend to do a bit of judging before I go drop off my baby. Cause I really don't want to be doing a reformat every two months.

Of note, I decided against the one computer repair place that is actually closest to me physically because the guy that answered the phone had such a bad accent and inability to understand english that it took four times to convey the idea of computer repair rather than buying a new one.

Well, after much terror, Talyn finally started up again. It had no problem w/ all the reboots for the windows updates last night, but for some reason, a black screen stared at me for a really long time after the xp start screen finished. First time I figured it stalled out, second time I waited long enough and it finally came up.

Then again, maybe Talyn just needed to hear luridmuse's voice. *shrugs* Definitely going into the repair shop on monday.

In the meantime, it ain't getting turned off.

Toodles.

Had dinner and watched Eat Me. It's always amazing at how much I forget I love this show and how much it relaxes me until I go back for another Farscape dose. This time last year, I was busy OD-ing on the entire series as well as bankrupting myself buying it since I got hooked just after the first two starburst editions came out. *pouts* So far, I have resisted buying any of the other new starbursts. Besides, I can always go visit mona and see if there is anything truly outstanding about the updated versions.

I suppose I should confess it now...Farscape has officially surpassed Firefly as my one true fandom. Firefly is still shiny, but Farscape is epic...and longer...and prettier. And gaaah. My muse is still protesting at the thought of writing aliens..which is well and fine, I have more than enough WIP thank you very much.

*sighs in contentment*

Off to go annoy the neighbors by vacuuming late at night.
