I've had a horrible week too.
My mom owns a little private school, and I'm the "computer guy", the school recently moved, and I have to set up the computer corner again. Wires, monitors, CDs, keyboards EVERYWHERE, EVERYTHING TANGLED UP, it is SO ANNOYING to reconnect everything, but I get $100 (To me, that's alot)
To make matters worse, my HUGE crush rejected me and said she "just wants to be friends, and only that."
AND, I spilled a cup of water on my beloved iPod Touch! I let it sit for three days, and let all the water evaporate, then tried to turn it on. Nothing.
I plugged it into the wall. Yay! The battery is charging! The battery meter said it was fully charged. One hour later, I got the 10% battery remaining warning, recharged it, same thing. The freakin' battery only lasts an hour now!!
Please help me with this: Link to my thread.

You and I are 13 hours apart, I often note your online button active when I'm browsing the forums with my first caffeine fix of the day, about 6.30 - 8 am NZ time. You're welcome to use PM. I'd like to read some more about your Dalmatian, if that's appropriate.

The life is like that, sometimes u will be happy and sometimes u will be sad
Everyone knows that but I had bad days too, and I don't remember it
that means u should forget about it and think about what will happen

So.. Okay.. This morning I attended a meeting, Right after then while I was in the car, my nose started dripping blood like rain drops. Rushed to the nearest hospital to stop the bleeding and to find out the problem, did a TNT on my nose and found out that I had a bloodcell which burst. So.. I needed to do laser surgery, they scheduled me at 1pm. Had my surgery, and got out.
So.. Right now. I'm at starbucks. Waiting to meet with one of my clients which I do designing for. Then I've got to attend a night class at 7.
Awesome day.

Just stayed up all night so that I could drop off some family members at the airport at 5AM. Wasn't so bad, watched some classic TV all night with my cousins. Sad thing is that I have to ship my car out today for my upcoming move to California, so I won't be able to use my car for the next two weeks

I can't imagine living somewhere as big as America... there's nowhere in Britain you can't drive to in a day... and possibly a night. Luckily I live in the middle

Kash, you experienced the earthquake on Tuesday? I was annoyed because it happened when I wasn't in my usual location of southern California (in Montreal now).

Yea, I had just flown in the night before. I was in the area apartment hunting and the first place I go, the earthquake hits. Thankfully, I was sitting in a parked car. At first I thought something was wrong with the car, but then I realized it was a tremor, which was then confirmed first by several people asking if I felt the earthquake and subsequently by hearing it on the radio.
Though on the bright side, I took it as a sign to get the apartment whose parking lot I was sitting in when the earthquake hit ;P
