Why does my dad treat me like an idiot?(Why do I expect him not to?) But seriously, no matter how many files I dump or attachments I don't open,I'm not going to be sixty-four pecking away on this same P.C. It's got problems. And even if it didn't, these things are not radios from the thirties.(Yeah, I share that peeve about the tech world, but my holding on to the wayback machine doesn't fix it!) And he keeps offering to come over and "look at it" which, in family code, means that he thinks some cable got unplugged(cause I'm just a girl) and he'll spend two minutes and...Ta Dah. No. Grr. Argh.

My step-dad is just the opposite. He thinks I can fix his Mac problems over the phone. Which, if it's a problem I've had before, yeah maybe. Otherwise my method of fixing stuff is the header for the tech thread "Press some buttons. See what happens."

Which is to say feh on your dad.

Yay, DJ!! That's very exciting!!

{{askye}} What everyone else has said.

I swear, I must be PMSing. I was just watching an ep of "Ghost Whisperer" and cried and cried. Dear me.

Yay people with new jobs! Yay people with good interviews! Yay!

Am trying to decide what to do today. Hrmmmmm....

Had sexxxxay dreams last night about someone that I am determined I should not sleep with. Shut UP, stupid subconscious!

I brought my own tea to work today. It's not time for me to be PMSing but I am generally "meh". After the potential roommate came over and we were working out the logistics of the move soon-to-be-ex-roommate came home and said he won't be able to move until March 1st. Now potential new roommate has nowhere to go.

Um, didn't soon to be ex roomate already give you an earlier date? It sounds like he's the one who has a problem, not you. At the very least, if you don't want or can't get him out on time, then if anyone is going to be camping on the couch it should be him.

Speaking of "shut up stupid subconcious" I had a dream last night that I had accidentally included a pair of panties in my slacker secret santa gift and the reason my giftee hadn't acknowledged it yet was that she was deeply offended.

Of course this freak out over the resume has distracted me from the fact I have to answer the question of -- have you ever had your driver's license suspended in the last 10 years with yes.

i'm also PMSing really bad so that's part of the tears. But it's not blind panic or anything just frustration. It's really a testement to how far I've come, that something like this is frustrating and a little teary making (I'm blaming it on hormones) but no blind panic or real freak out. And no paranoid thoughts, which is such a blessing.

He told me that he would move out as soon as I returned his security deposit but I didn't get it in writing so I can't hold him to it. When I asked if he could please be out by February 1st he said, "do you want me on the street?" I'm very proud of myself for not replying, "yes."

I mean, I know Dad is *really* smart, although not really about tech stuff, but why can't we both be smart? Why do I have to be thought of as the "disc-drive-as-cup-holder" sort of idiot so he feels smart? And it is stopping us from finding a solution, too.
