Wait that's me, but anyway...
There is Something Wrong with my computer. What this is exactly has not yet been determined, but after pulling shit out, putting stuff in, playing with things, and a bit of voodoo, I think the motherboard is dead. It's also possible the processor is dead, but that seems less likely. It has been a while since I've had the computer I suppose, but all the same it's weird of my motherboard to give up the ghost like this. It was working about 2 hours ago :(.
Now, assuming it really is dead, I've got limited options. I could go without a computer and just use this semi-functional laptop for a while, but..., well, I dunno, I guess I could do that if I wanted. This being senior year and all, I should probably hold off on video games if at all possible, and constraining myself to this Piece of Crap would preclude any hope of playing much of anything.
I could also take the opportunity to upgrade my computer, but I'm not seeing that happening since there are better things to spend my non-existent money on.
I had initially figured I would just buy another of the same motherboard and use that, but now I wonder whether I'd be better off with a crippled computer. I do indeed spend too much time on the computer as is, and there isn't all that much schoolwork that needs to be done on a computer besides typing up lab reports and essays and such. And if I'm forced to use this thing (I wish I had pictures of it), I might be more motivated to finally fix it and make it a REAL laptop; a PORTABLE laptop with a HINGED LID, classy.
Well, not much else going on. Going to see "The 40 Year Old Virgin" tonight. I have high hopes for the movie, since most people have said it is entertaining.
As for life, The State of Yann as of late has been confused. This whole graduating-from-college thing is creeping me out a bit and making me wonder about my fitness and how I've spent the last few years. Unsurprisingly, all this thinking eats away at the mind and slowly crushes the spirit. Long story short, I really need something to do 'cause Summer is driving me crazy.

Here, have a picture!
