Dig up the ground with shovel and then place bricks down.
Oh that sucks. Condolences and such.

So, I'll only be on Bay12 for a very short time. Class is eating up my time, and my weekends are full of business-related research and business-themed college subject researching.

Also, Psychology class is trying its hardest to be difficult, and with me not being that smart, I find it rather worrying. :\

Thank you for all the fish. It was a good run.

Looking for Onion jokes on twitter I searched the tag #GoodDead (one mentioned in a Dr Good video) and every single tweet was someone who is unable to spell the word 'deed'. Twitter is looking worse and worse the more I look at it.

EDIT: Alternatively, Twitter is full of serial killers who prey on the weak.

Good luck mate. I'm sure you'll pull through in the end. :)

Minor est, but first manual lawn mower test didn't go too well. It was as entertaining to use as I imagined (and as strenuous), but it didn't so much "mow" as "push down the plants and occasionally pull one up". Which is to say, somewhat ineffective.

I'unno. Might help if it had actual, like, blades, instead of rusty bars of metal. E: And maybe if it was a bit more... dry. It's kinda' damp out there, right now.

Yup, gotta keep good and sharp, even more so than a motorized one.

Yeah, I'll have to see what I can do about it. The thing's... probably older than I am, and insofar as I'm aware has been sitting under a barn, mostly exposed to (Florida) weather, for, well, decades. It's probably a minor miracle of engineering the thing's as functional as it is.

You want the blades at least as sharp as your kitchen knives. Get a whetstone if you can.

Friend is having a big birthday party tonight, gonna be atleast 20 people there. I'll know atleast half of them I think, and I'm still getting incredibly anxious about it.

Oh well, I can always get plastered to ease up the anxiety :S

So we're certain now that my CPU is borked... and it's probably all my fault. Ugh.

I might be stuck using an old 2.2GHz processor for a while.

The slightly creeping horror of realising the new Animal Crossing can act as a metaphor for those who have failed to become the superman. The existential horror faced by one that kills gods but doesn't seek to replace them with itself. Unable to grasp a rhyme or reason to exist that is not handed to them, with no narrative or purpose and no desire to craft one for themselves they can only derive meaning through latching onto any possible challenged placed before them, no matter the banality.

They take on debt, a sufficient torture such that work may seem attractive. Through simple work, simple purpose. But when the debt is cleared, and the fish collected, then the abyss is once again gazing. So, in terror, they seek more debt, more things to collect, more purpose.

Until none are left. The house is as large as it can become, the museum is full with the bones of the past, and the player is left with only the choices of abandoning the game, effectively choosing to die, or resigning themselves to repetition without purpose or meaning, nothing but a slower death.

I know that feel. I lost my 2.6GHz computer a couple years ago to motherboard problems and had to go back to using my old 1.5GHz computer. It works and all but it has some problems with overheating that not even canned air can seem to fix.

What made me sad today though is that my younger brother lost his place and had to move back in with our mother. On the bright side though it looks like my mother should be able to eat a lot better now that my brother is there to support her again. It's a shame that he and I are estranged and that he is major part of why I have PTSD, but despite that I hope that he gets back on his feet soon.

Well, just failed my first university exam.
But I pretty much slept through half the semester, and had to cram all learning into the last week. Now I have to hope my doc excuses me from the next two exams, so I'll be cramming a whole semester into eight weeks instead of two. My main selling point: I'm still in a very good mood after failing that exam. Sometimes I love being bipolar :D

I've been having nightmares again.  Feeling very restless.

Definitely need to go make some more friends.
