Being stressed & sleepy on Thursday sucks!

It's SPN Thursday & I'm supposed to be all squeee excited...except I'm not. :(

I was, but stuff has happened and it's just not turning out to be the best day. Bah.

My previous internet problems with my new desktop computer? Still ongoing. And get this...I've tried using 3 different restore points to try and fix the problem (whatever it is)...all failed. I'm not just talking about failing to solve the internet problem...I'm talking about the computer failing to backup to the restore point!!! WTH??? I've never seen that happen before. I only had to use system restore a couple of times on my old computer and it always worked. Meh. Friggin' computer.

So I still have no idea why it suddenly stopped detecting my Clearwire modem. It works on the laptop (thank goodness). But it's frustrating...and we're already past the 30 days when we bought the desktop and I REALLY don't want to pack the whole thing up and take it back, but it's looking more and more like that's what's going to happen. And after I got all my files put on there and a bunch of software, too. *grumbles* So now I'm all stressed and frustrated over my computer. *glares at it* Why are you being so difficult? What did I do???? *bangs head against wall*

To top all this off, I didn't hardly get any sleep last night/early this morning....whatever. Stayed up too late (darned muse...who said writing at 9 a.m. was a good idea anyways?) and decided to just stay up. Then I decided I should at least nap a little. So I slept for a couple of hours. Now I'm all draggy and stressed...and I just wanna crawl in under a blanket, back up time, and wake up to a properly working computer again. *Sigh*

Some good news: that I wish I was more enthused about - I'm still working on that UNC Achordants post. Spent all last night re-recording the audio, 'cause I kinda did it wrong the first time. Hopefully these will play correctly on the PC now. *crosses fingers for something to work right* So, hopefully I'll be making a big post about this a capella group very soon.

Chatting with trystan830 this morning, I ended up writing some fic. It's not my usual stuff, by any means, but I'm hoping people will enjoy it. I have to tweak it a little and give it a title, but then I'll be posting it. Thanks Trys, for being my guinea pig. I had no idea it was just going to take off like that. :)

Oh, one last little rant issue. It's windy. There's been a big storm hitting western WA since yesterday, with lots of gusty winds. Why is this an issue? Because the wind plays havoc with our digital TV reception. Eeep! They say this is going to ease up late in the afternoon. I certainly hope so. Otherwise, SPN is gonna look and sound like crap. Bah. Please, please....let just one thing go right today? Let SPN air without any problems. I could really use a new episode to pick me up today.

I hope someone will comment on this, I've been getting so few lately (though that could be those darned LJ gremlins....grrrr).

Meh. I so need a nap right now. *hugs flist*
