I give in

After hours of fiddling with my computer and guest accounts and uninstalling and reinstalling and generally getting lost in a load of technobabble that is giving me a headache, I think I have discovered one thing; namely, that it is not my computer that's fucked, its the damn ipod itself.

*wilts*

I love my ipod. I don't want to get a new one with those horrible touch wheel things and photo's and videos etc, that I'll never use. I like my one with the buttons and scrolly-wheel. But I can't see any other thing it could be - the computer says Fire Wire is working fine, I've tried to do all the stuff they suggest on the Apple website but I'm somewhat hampered when they suggest restoring the thing etc, given that every time I plug it in to the computer, the whole thing crashes. Wtf does 'dumping physical memory to disc' actualy mean, when all's said and done? I can understand 'error caused by a device driver' a little better and 'stop error' makes sense too, in a way. But I don't get the dumping thing, espcially as it never seems to do any good. Shouldn't the system be cleaned of...well, everything, by now? It dumps about ten times a day as I hope in vain that it the damn thing might update without mishap this time, please God...

But no. Bah. I wash my hands of the whole situation. I can't afford a new ipod anyway so I'll just have to make do with the current library and put up with CD's in the meantime. *grumps*

I'm a Problem Child

Anyone know the best layout for customisation? I just changed mine to the 'Expressive' thing (how did I not know about this before?) but I now see that it can't really be altered, plus, everyone seems to have one at the moment. I want to make a layout that I actually like 'cos I've never been that happy with any of them. So, which is the most flexible?

Come on, come on, listen to the money talk

Omfg. Omfg. OMFG!!!!

I just checked my bank balance, to see if I shold get the last remaining few quid out and try to eek out the last two weeks of the month...

...only to discover that my Working Tax Credit has arrived. And, has been backdated. And um, OMFG - should I go and buy a new computer now, or WHAT?!

*DIES*

Two's Up

Anyone got a link to the firefox LJ log-in thingy, please? I have lost it once again.

I am stuck as to what to spend my money on. Logic dictates hanging on to it because it's not like I won't need it when I'm in London before Chrimbo. But...*squirms* that's ages away. And it's a hard job convincing myself not to just go to New York for a week or skiing in January or something. So hard! But, I confess, it's a nice problem to have and totally won't last very long. I have to pay for that dude's car I hit and as I spent the money mother gave me for the dentist, I suppose I'll have to shell out for that now or go around with broken teeth forever. Yuk.

I will buy clothes as mine all suck. I've bought food, so that's me done for a month. Car has petrol. What else is there? Skating on Friday, new James Bond movie the week after. *squee* Um...OK, I dunno. I'll go make coffee and ponder.
