You can't break my spirit - it's my dreams you take.

If I could, I would kick myself...Repeatedly. Mostly because this hasn't been the best of school breaks. And that's mostly due to the Great Computer Crash of '06. Yep. On Tuesday, the computer, which we've had for six years (seven, in a few days) finally stopped working. It has had other breakdowns before, but not as bad as this one. That's partially because a good friend of my parents' has been able to fix it easily and get back everything. But, now this time my older brother is trying to fix it and he doesn't know how to retrieve everything that was lost without having a backup of it. And I don't know how to backup everything. I know there's a disk involved, but I'm lost as to what you actually do. So now everything we've had on that old computer is lost. Everything. All my music files, and all my stories are now gone. Well, there's probably a secret as to how to get it all back, but no one in my family is that much of a guru around computers. And it's such a stupid problem that caused the crash. Apparently, some important file that you have to have in oder to start up the computer went missing. It was changed, or altered or something, I think.

And I feel really bad because my twin brother, the immature brat that he is, blames it all on me because, apparently, it was all my downloading and saving that caused the computer to crash down. Sometimes, I really have the strong urge to smack him. Many, many, many times and hard. But, it really looks like I am the suspicious one because I was the last one on the computer before it stopped working. Like I could help that.

Y' know I kept telling them that we needed to buy a new computer, but no one listens to me. And they, apparently believe I'll need a desktop computer instead of a laptop because it's less breakable? I just wonder if there's any logic behind that.

now we see everything that's going wrong

I'm so happy right now! Seriously, the little things in life give me great joy. So, I'm over at one of my girlfriend's house, sitting in the dark, and perusing her laptop. I came over here because she has a cute two-year-old and I get to play with him all day tomorrow. Yippy! Life does not get better than this. (I love kids, and he's such a cutie pie!)

As you can see, my mood has lifted greatly. Apparently all I needed was to act like a two-year-old again.
