And so IM suppresses another movement.

Let's just imagine I posted a YouTube clip of Grandpa Simpson rambling on after Mr. Burns hires the old folks as strike-breakers.

I'm having a horrible time with trying to program game-like stuff (in java) for my game programming class.  This is extremely frustrating for me as I want to make videogames.  I know what I want to tell the computer to do, but I haven't been taught the actual code well because the classes are all conceptual.

Normally I wouldn't post this sort of thing, but I guess it qualifies as it led to an emotional break down last night.  But mostly, I'm grasping out at every last string I can think of and I'm kinda hoping someone, probably Zara, could help me.

We have a board that's more or less for that.  Go post something in Assorted Creations; between me, Zara, Bongo and the handful of programmers I'm probably forgetting, you should be able to get the guidance you need.

I can actually help you with that. Just IM me sometime. I know how that is, I've broken down a few times over codeing.

And that is with my girlfriend using Hulu (then again, it may have finished byffering by the time I ran the test).
Going back to cable or DSL, if I ever have to, is going to fucking suck.

He's cheating by virtue of living in Australia (I think).

Okay, I guess that actually helps his case.

As for actual shit days: Taking your car into the mechanic for a regular checkup and getting a phone calla bout 30 minutes later that starts with "Your car has some problems that you may want to know about..."


$650 later I'm back on the road ::(:

It's worth noting that "Your car has some problems that you might want to know about..." easily translate from Mechanic to English as "We found some things that we would like to charge you for"

This. Most mechanics will warn you about potential problems with your car, but a good mechanic will tell you how likely it is that it will actually be a problem in the near future, and what you can do to prevent it becoming a huge problem. Also, if you have even the slightest bit of mechanical skill, you can pick up a book that will show you how to fix everything on your car. A lot of it is too in-depth for the layman, but for routine maintenance stuff, it's great.

Also on the topic of this thread...

I almost forgot: For over 15 years I've had a painless, non-irritated odd mottling on my skin. Looks kind of like Psoriasis combined with liver spots (but isn't either one of these). Starr always joked that I'm rusting.

Now, it's only on places that usually nobody sees (thighs, armpits) and didn't bug me, so I just didn't care. Recently my Doctor was concerned that no one had ever bothered to figure out what the hell it actually was so he sent me to a Dermatologist. Yesterday the Dermatologist called me to say they stil didn't really know what it is, but it may be a precursor to a precursor to skin cancer. Oops!

Anyway, it's not that shitty. I've had this FOREVER, so I don't think I'm going to start rotting like a Zombie and fall over dead tomorrow and they said that if it turns in to the precursor singler they'll just do specialized UV treatments on it (note that those parts of my body almost never see any real light - not a cooincidence, it seems). They only real annoying thing for now is that it looks like they're going to be taking more bits and peices of me for further analysis. *sigh*
