I kinda forgot about this until I went through my favorites bar again...sorry. Course, I've been offline for about a year now due to money problems, computer problems, family problems, and a couple of other problems. First, my parents nixed the dial-up connection I had because my stepfather got DSL through his job. This was all well and good, until he told me that I couldn't connect my computer to it because he was "afraid I'd use all his bandwidth up". After a long and educational spat about how bandwidth was a measure of how much information was travelling at one time rather than a total amount of information that could be downloaded over a month, he was still reluctant and proceeded to tell me no for several months. Finally he relented and said that if I bought a wireless card, I could connect my computer...which would have been great, except I was so strapped for cash that I couldn't afford to buy a wireless card. With college bills, car insurance, and having to buy tires, a muffler, shocks, and get some front end work done, I was dead. I only recently got a wireless card from my real father as a kind of "bribe you to come see me more" present. >.> if he had been around when I was younger, it wouldn't be that hard to get me over there...and if I weren't working close to 60 hours a week. x.x'
But, now I've got more problems in that my boss in one of my jobs has decided that he can't pay me. The hazards of working for a "Friend". Yes, I use that term loosely in this case. "The business is on hard times, can you wait?" And like the compassionate Gryffiondork I am, I said yes. The "little while" has turned into about a month, and so I quit. Now, I've got much more free time. ^.^ And since I had already trained myself to go without the extra money, I'm not really experiencing a tight.
And finally, after paying $1,700 of it off myself, i'm getting some help from my parents with my school bill. My real father intends to pay for the last $1,000 just to get me back in school this semester. >.> I'm not telling him that I've decided that a.) There's no way I could save up enough to move and find another job up there by the beginning of this semester. b.) I've decided that saving up so that my finacee' and I can move to the same state is much more important at the moment, since his family is driving him crazy and I'm pining away like some lost Juliet...>.>' I'm a dork, i know.
In more revelent to why I made this journal news, I can usually be found online around 10 pm to 12 pm Central. I won't be on till late, if at all, Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, and Sundays. I have real life Rps with friends that are...semi rewarding. The sunday game is great, save that I'm running the game right now. The others are...lack-luster. But, I'm tangenting again. >.>
