Every major content release the eventHandler's parameters get rearranged, so all of my addons have to be reprogrammed.
Not the end of the world, just annoying.
Leave the caster name, spell ID and spell name alone Blizz Devs! Add your new parameters to the end or move something else, but enough already...

My stupid ex thought I was downloading torrents @ like 9am today, I didn't answer the door because well... I was sleeping..So her solution ? Cut the power to the entire house and switch back on.. That's a good way to screw up my computer you idiot!
Also, Americans that seem think Canada is always cold..110 degrees with the heat index in the summer is not cold! The only part of Canada that's always cold is way up north in the Arctic Circle..Damn hillbillies. New York City isn't that far from Toronto and it's not cold all the time..How about Chicago ?

Your ex sounds like a real piece of work.
And I thought Canadians all lived in igloos? No?

That actually sounds like where I live, except opposite. Tourists are always thinking San Francisco is gonna be sunny because it's in California. Weell... not quite. *glares at cold fog that never goes away*
Which is also my rant. Bleh weather >.<

Blame the media and the tourist industry for that. Every time you see SF it's sunny and nice outside. The only time you don't see it that way is when Jamie and I go bust some myth's outside.

I thought everyone assumed San Francisco was always foggy. As for the Great White North, I consider any place that has to shovel frozen water uncivilized, so I've never wondered about their summers.

Not everyone in America is a hillbillie. Most of my family is from those so called "Hillbillie States" nor are we ignorant(Like some people seem to think

). Canada being cold is a common misconception just like Litlemouse said - SF has a misconception of always being hot.

But Northwest Florida really does suck! :)
I'm preparing to drop $30 on an absolutely wonderful, well-made collar for myself*, and I'm having two issues that shouldn't be issues. One, I can't pick a color combination and two, everyone I ask either makes a face or is unhelpful. COLORS. HELP. AAAAAHHH
I heard 'Judas' for the first time yesterday and it kind of made me cringe. I think it's the first song by Gaga I don't especially like - that and Alejandro. :x Heavy Metal Lover makes up for it though!
*as a style choice, not a nod to the BDSM community, honest to Cthulhu. People don't seem to get that, either.

I hate summer. I hate this time of year more than anything else its so hot outside I end up getting sick and throwing up with a headache even with a minimal amount of exposure to the sun. I try to drink enough water to stay hydrated but the water ends up making me sick no matter how slowly I drink it. It's ridiculous that it happens so fast it's happened ever since I was a little kid, damn I hate the heat.

Generally, everyone I have come into contact with in RL for the last, oh say, few hours has me frustrated. Well, my dad hasn't done much. But beyond that, everyone's just out to make me upset. One of those days where I want to turn off everything, hide under covers and just avoid humans for the rest of the month. :\
Edit: I am useless with computers. Word processors? Piece of cake. Power points? Can be done in my sleep. Trying to install something? Whoa, hold everything. What do I do here? I need to take technology classes. :p

Urg, the girl who somehow got the job that I wanted as a dog washer was ranting today to my mom's friend about how much she hates it. xX; She knows she could quite and give the job to someone who can DO IT, but of course not. She was in my High School class and she was a big fecking brat. I just want this job. It's simply and enjoyable for me.

To reiterate on my other cryptic post, I had it set up to where I was supposed to join a RP with the boyfriend and some of his buddies. It came about a little sooner than I liked and I was feeling anxious to begin with, so I had a (Not So)
Heroic BSOD and went "I can't do this" and tried to drop off of the face of the earth.
I'm completely ashamed. I feel so ridiculous for making a huge deal out of something as stupid as stage fright. I'm not used to the format they use for their roleplays and I don't know these people at all - they've a very harshy critical bunch from what I've seen, although I seem to be in good standings just because I do most of Ryan's art - but that doesn't justify giving a long-winded speech about being unable to join in and then going invisible for hours. I can't even talk to Ryan anymore. I'm embarrassed, and I know 'sorry' isn't going to suffice, but I don't want to ignore him for the rest of the evening...although he's understandably busy with that roleplay...
Useless Edit: I don't want to muck up the thread with whining. I tried to go to bed, but I can't sleep at all. I feel horribly alone and, at the moment, so very...mortal. Like the world could just turn in on itself and crush me at any moment. I feel like nothing can get worse, which is silly considering what brought this mood about. It's not a big deal at all! It was just a triggery situation for some reason. You apologized. It's okay.
Except he hasn't responded so maybe it isn't okay. Maybe he's just busy. Or maybe he's intentionally giving you the cold shoulder for overreacting after being so excited about this.
It's horrible. I feel numb and hurt and frightened and empty all at once and it's overwhelming. Like my life just up and spiraled out of control. I can't really stop it now, I just have to sit and wait. I hate moments like these, when I'm not even sure what my mind is saying anymore. I'm frightened by my own thoughts, enforcing the lack of self-worth and telling me to do something about it, even if it involves hurting myself. I don't want to. I don't really want to. I've never thought about it seriously. But my mind keeps wandering, wavering around and lingering on unpleasant things. It's all a bunch of 'what ifs' playing in my mind over and over. I don't want to think about guns, but
what if I had one? I don't want to think about knives, but
what if I went and got one? I keep trying to drown it all out by just going no no no this is stupid over and over and it works, but the seeds are still planted and they keep repeating themselves just as loudly. It's like one big critical brain failure.
I hope I get better soon. Please. Please let me get better soon.
