Holy Jesus Knuckles

So, as you'll recall, I was gone forever. And then I returned last Friday and said something about writing an article. I never did, but I have a perfectly understandable explanation.

My computer was about to die right there on the spot.

Okay, I must tell you first of all, that this computer is extremely second hand. I bought it from OMGJeremy himself around 2 years ago. And about 3 or 4 months into it, the computer got some worm or another, or something. But, it started telling me every 4 seconds that I need to put in the XP Home Edition CD so that it can fix some Hideous Errors. Of course, Jeremy still had that, so I ignored its cries for as long as possible. (This is when the ctrl+alt+del feature and MSPaint stopped working, too). Finally, I had that worm that crippled everyone for a while, where you basically had to get rid of it as soon as possible before it locked you up forever or whatever.

During that period, I removed hundreds of bad things from the computer.

It was nothing but Hard Times, but it did fix that problem where XP wanted reinstalled. At least, the little window stopped appearing every moment of every day.

Since then, I had gotten a bit angrier and vigilant and everything and it was all okay if a bit, you know, mildly retarded. It certainly has lasted a whole lot longer than anyone ever expected at the very least.

Well, when I returned from being gone, I had discovered that the old computermachine was once again on its last legs. The story is so long and complicated that my brain has mostly blocked it out. The end result though is that I think I have given it stability and another chance at life. Dan, who wrote an article for us once, certainly helped me a ton. But man. Since FRIDAY, I have done little else while on the computer besides trying to fix it, and screaming at the monitor threats about setting it on fire with a flaming sledgehammer, and generally weeping out of colossal frustration.

But this morning is the very first morning that things are looking normal. And acting normal. Better than normal, really. It isn't even sluggish, and no programs have randomly locked up or "forgotten how to save and then crash the entire computer lololol."

This means that I really CAN write an article now!

Hahahaha. We'll see how this goes.
