Can't see an invisible ninja.

Broke my laptop today. It was a piece of crap anyway, but I tripped over the power cable and it snapped off inside poor old lappy. And it landed on the floor. Hard. Sucks. |

Indeed, is the HDD intact, or is all the stuff on it lost too? |

As far as I know, it still works. It rebooted when it hit the floor, and said it had recovered from a serious error. I don't trust my battery life, so I don't know how much it got damaged, but as far as I can tell, it's still good. Except for the power supply, but we ordered another one of those off of Amazon. |

We did White Elephant (13 of us) at the New Year's Eve party I went to. White Elephant is a pretty fun game where everybody brings a goofy present (usually goofy), wraps it up, and put them all in a pile. Then we draw numbers (I was #4). In order from 1 to 13, we choose a present. We open it in front of everyone we if we don't like it, we can trade with anybody who went before us (except #1). I went and choose the prettiest present. Opened it and it was an 08-09 Berea Youth Basketball League trophy. It was a bobble-head basketball. A very cool trophy...and I played in the BYBL in elementary school, so I liked it and kept it because...hey...it's a real trophy. Then everybody else went and there was funny stuff. Here's where my New Year was NOT so happy. There were 13 people, but 14 presents. One of the moms asked who wanted to go again and I'm like "I'll go." So I walk up there and actually picked up the extra present and was ready to open it. Two moms were all like " Let [the youngest kid] have it!" I'm like WTF? I'm already up here, with the present in hand ready to open it, and the kid gets it because they want to go again when I clearly called dibs first. I let that kid have it, since that kid is so spoiled to the point where that kid gets everything they want regardless of other peoples' feelings obviously. I let that go. Then the kid opens the present and finds an annoying electronic flowerpot that won't shut up (the original one was found and wrapped up and opened). So there's two of those. HAHAHA! I still have my awesome trophy in hand. That kid comes over to me and wants to trade. It's the rules if they want what you have, they can trade you...but IT WAS THE EXTRA GIFT! It should be void. The kid kept the present they opened up. It shouldn't go like that. I tried saying they shouldn't trade with the EXTRA gift, but NO! It was the "RULE". That kid got to not only open TWO presents, but they get to trade with the EXTRA present when they kept the original one they opened, and they got the one present that I really wanted to keep and I was pretty happy about getting. I gave it up after running around the house for like 5 minutes with the adults telling me that I "had" to give it up for the freakin' extra because the youngest person got to open it! So my gift was basically taken from me! That kid later gave me the gift they originally opened and kept. I went home empty-handed because I was so mad. Yeah, it still sounds crazy I admit, but us teenagers get squat while the younger kids get everything WE have, OUR stuff. Because they're younger and spoiled. I was P'Oed. It was a really nice trophy too. It had a little stone basketball player with a basketball head that bobbled. So that kid got THREE gifts. I got none. |

Tea - the answer to life's problems.

So yesterday my boyfriend got slapped round the head by his sister and put in a headlock by his mother, and the police cautioned HIM for domestic violence. Here's what happened: His sister and mother came down to their nana's house to make dinner, and were a bit arsey about the meat smell - wafting it round the house and whatnot(I'm vegan, that's why it's a little...disrespectful, let's leave it at that). I came down - as me and Aled(bf) were looking after the house for his nana. We went upstairs and after a while Aled went down to ask when they were leaving. They decided to be cuntish and be "oh, we're gonna stay longer" knowing full well I was around and we'd like to USE the house. So it escalated after a while, culminating in a shouty argument that ended up with his sister slapping him, his mother getting up and then grabbing Aled in a headlock and then him struggling out of it...then a little later back in shouty mode she fake screamed and said "stop hitting me"...when Aled was stood still with his arms at his waist. Aled went a bit mental and called the police...and they didn't listen to Aled at all, instead they just cautioned him purely on what his sister and mother said - which was total and utter bullshit. I'm bloody scared right now what those things will do to him. As far as I can gather, there's no realistic chance of him being able to live with his nana. He has to stay at his "home" for a while until we can sort something out. Monday I'm going to be getting as much housing information as I can - I do NOT trust his mother and sister to be reasonable and leave everything be - they thrive on drama and chaos and as it seems from this recent episode, are perfectly willing to try and get their own son arrested. *sigh* |
