Though a "Diary" my online diary is a work of FICTION.

It may at times strongly reflect actual events of my life, often how I honestly perceived them and display my genuine reactions. But not always and everything contained within should be treated as a fiction.

This is also a personal diary, so by reading it you are violating my privacy. And as it is a personal diary you are not allowed to hold anything you read in it against me, as you shouldn't have been reading it anyway.

Also, this diary is not to be read by anyone who has gone out with me, would like to go out with me in the future, or suspects I may like to go out with them.

The week has been a kick in the cheap

On Friday my change of internet provider rolled over.

It was slightly messy, because of course it was.  Mostly just for bad communication reasons.

And also my modem having an awful user interface, and refusing to let you see its manual unless it has internet access itself…..

And Orcon, like all internet providers, doesn’t seem to think it charges a month in advance when you leave the way it did when you signed up.  Knowing that people are too glad to be gone to fight.  Internet providers all being thriving companies, when it comes right down to it.

Then over the weekend the overheating issue my computer has had for a while moved up to being a constantly cooking itself problem forcing my to hire a professional (one at Firmin’s recommendation).  So my computer went away and came back slightly uglier with more fans and now no plumbing parts as the water cooling had blocked and replacement parts were going to take a while, be more expensive and are getting a reputation for being less reliable.

So spending all the disposable income that I don’t have….


Oh, and both my role playing games were off.  So I have been antisocial and haven’t left my flat since… maybe Wednesday.  I think Wednesday.
