| My iPod went through the washing machine this morning. The embarrassing part is that it wasn't even in my pants pocket. I had my iPod in one hand and was loading laundry with the other and at some point I must have just dropped it in there. | |

| I decided to create a password for the computer. Put it in, reset the computer, got to the password screen, got told that the password was incorrect. HORROR. Made about 20 attempts at entering the password, figuring that maybe I'd mistyped it both times when entering it and that maybe if I flailed my fingers around in just the right way I'd hit on the magical combination.
Turns out that the computer doesn't load non-Qwerty keyboards until after you log in. I'm quite glad I figured that one out. | |

| So what do you do, then? If the computer doesn't recognize your keyboard until after log-in and you can't log in because it doesn't recognize your keyboard? | |

| Type it in on the default Qwerty keyboard. I don't remember if I set Dvorak as the default during installation or within Windows, but it hasn't taken everywhere. Since the password was 'password' (not really) and typed in Dvorak, attempting to do the same on a Qwerty keyboard resulted in 'ra;;,soh'. So, one bout of hunting and pecking later, the password was changed to 'ra;;,soh' so I could type it in normally. | |

| I'm alive. I guess that counts for something.
I'm actually full of things that will be better off on the Something Bad thread, but Mikey yelled at me for being a wimp last time I wrote anything there so. | |

| :V I got Skyrim.
Somehow I managed to get involved in stupid love triangle in the very first town, ruined both parties chances with the object of their affection by ratting out their fake love letter schemes, got attacked by one of them in a rage, killed him in self-defense, and then had the entire town come after me with battle axes. | |

Ditto! ...the entire town? I'm impressed! In other TES games, the most I get is one or two old battleaxes (who may or may not have battle axes) chasing me for picking a pocket or two. But you getting the whole town upset, well, I think I need to step up my game. | |

But you getting the whole town upset, well, I think I need to step up my game. Depends on where you run. I accidentally into the blacksmith's house and he and his wife chased me. Then in the confusion I ran into the town inn and everybody in it came after me. The blacksmith is a total mini-boss, I could NOT kill him no matter how hard I tried. I restarted the game though so I could put my skills into better things. I want to become the world's best smooth-talking magical sniper/tank alchemist. | |

| So I bought a blonde wig for shits and giggles. Nothing special about it, it's just a short, straight bob cut. My regular hair is shoulder length and dark brown.
Whenever I do something drastic, yet permanent to my hair (turning it into a pixie cut, getting a perm) I usually get comments like, "It's so different, I love it!" or "Wow, it looks great on you!"
Wearing the wig I get the same amount of compliments, but always followed with "But your regular hair is so pretty!" and "There's nothing wrong with your natural hair!"
... I can take the wig off...? That's kinda the point of wearing a fashion wig. I dunno, I guess by wearing a wig, I seem like I'm somehow ashamed of my regular hair and not just bored by it?
Also, I could never really dye my hair blonde anyway. The colour looks good enough on me, but my hair is so dark and so fast-growing, I'd have roots in all of 4 days. That, and fringe bangs require way too much maintenance. | |

| I judged my technical writing prof for admitting that she uses pre-packaged mix to make guacamole. Yes, I am a bit of a guacamole snob, I make it from scratch. Heck even in most restaurants I wont get guacamole because they'll charge $2.50 for stuff made from a bag that doesn't even taste good.
Judging guacamole is completely average for me. | |

| I found grape-flavored Gatorade in the story yesterday so I bought it and drank it.
It tasted like grape Kool-Aid. Which is to say, it tasted nothing like grapes. | |

| My diced turkey smelled and tasted like food poisoning waiting to happen, so I threw it out with the salvageable rice. I ate my emergency pastry instead. | |

| Rolling Stone came out with their latest list of greatest guitarist ever, and it's full with even more bullshit then before. I'm going to be taking it to task in the music thread.
Why is this not in "Something Bad"? Rolling Stone cheeses me off on a pretty regular basis. | |

| I realized today that I smoke because I want to see if I can get addicted, just to see if I can. I shrugged, stomped out the butt and threw the pack away because it's obvious that that's never going to happen.
Then I had a coke. Ahh... caffeine. You put up with so much from me. | |

| Became the target of the Social Justice Crusaders today. I think they tried to accuse me of misandry and ableism? And then called me a dumb annoying asshole?
I don't know, I'm just really amused by how seriously they take my casual rage at a fictional character. | |
