Aug. 28th, 2007 09:41 pmI just DO NOT know how it is possible to have so much fail going on. I've spent the past 2 days (of my vacation!) napping and napping and then taking another nap, and today was the end of PMS but it came with horrid cramps. Completely aside from that, my ears ache, my head hurts, and I'm seriously so cranky I figure I'm about 2 minutes away from going out into the streets and finding someone to slap.
So, I thought, it's a good idea to cancel plans, give Amazon's Unbox thing a try and get some of the S3 SGA episodes I've been dying to rewatch since my laptop died, and chill.
Amazon's Unbox messed up my computer on install, and now won't play the episodes I downloaded. Turns out, my version 10 of media player isn't good enough. So okay, go to upgrade to 11, and I can't because my sort-of-old desktop isn't running the right service pack for XP. So I go to download the service pack, and the links on the official microsoft website all lead--nowhere.
I just. Aggravation levels reaching EXTREME. Extreme, I tell you!
*deep breaths*
Plus, I bought a book of Neil Gaiman short stories without checking first, and of course all but 2 are stories I own in other collections. Sigh.
In other news, a cat leapt down from somewhere and caused a horrible, glass shattering kind of crash in the kitchen and I went out to see what they'd done, and they'd just knocked my teapot over. No damage! I know it's sad that this is my good news for the day, but whatever. Any day they don't break anything is a good day indeed! ;-)
