Title: Operation: New Computer / Beat the Postal Service to a Bloody Pulp
Post by: Fishalicious on January 04, 2008, 05:00:56 PM
... The internet keeps closing out. It's seriously annoying. My parents blame Mozilla for all of it.

Oh, and this is my daily life recently:
Kaitlyn: mommy, I want on the computer!
Mom: you've been on it all day.
Dad: get off!
Fisk: -just got back on after a two hour break- DX
Baby (cat): -jumps on chair whenever Fisk isn't sitting in it-

D: It's even more annoying, I purposely get off so my sister can get on, I mean, I'm not doing anything at the time. When I get back on, she wants on. fjs

I've been saving up money to get a new computer. This would be so much easier if my parents would let me get a job. Oh, or if the goddamned post office would ever pull through and give me the crap I ordered six months ago. fdkjl;js I hate spending 25 dollars on something the post loses. Or losing stuff from my penpal. I barely interact with people, and the post loses it all the time. Or, you know, the thirty-some-odd dollars I should be getting from people who bought stuff from me?

It's crap, it really is. And they keep insisting that nothing's wrong at all. I'm about to rip out my hair over it.

As for the computer fund, I've got twenty seven dollars. It would be thirty five if I got the eight dollars from Florida, sixty if I didn't spend twenty five dollars on something that's never coming in, and eighty two dollars and fifty cents if that mean person ever decided to pay me what I deserve, including the money she stole from me.

Which would total $111 if I didn't buy Silent Hill 4, and if the goddamned postal service here would do their goddamned job.

I'm very upset right now, you know, being jipped out of over fifty dollars. /: and with the computer completely ruining everything I'm trying to do.

I'm writing an angry letter to the post right now, actually. I'm going to march down to the post office and give it to them.

Hopefully it gets there before November.

thanks for the hug though, I really need it.

They blame Mozilla, eh? I bet they're Microstooges, aren't they? Aren't they?!

Also, here's Johnny Depp to console you with his award winning smile.

I wonder how well the post office is funded. By the sounds of it, not very well... Good luck with that letter!

That picture makes me sadder!!  :'(

Anyway, Fisk, I'm sorry to hear that. The Post Office here messes up alot too, so i tend to rely on e-mail and electronics. They never fail!

They don't, but you see, it's hard to get material items from the interwebs. I can get money without leaving the house, but I can't get the stuff that my Seme up in Canada sent me online. /: She sent me a couple of Christmas presents, and they never got here...

My sister just enjoys making my life hell, too... she keeps blaming me for Clarence being dead, and for our dog damn near killing another dog.

I still feel really upset about Clarence, mostly because I wasn't there to say goodbye to him, and he's been there for me forever... And definitely for our dog almost killing Sally, I mean, I couldn't do anything... I tried to stop them, but all I ended up doing was getting bitten several times and crying. >:

and the fact that she's only my half-sister... well, yeah, it makes me feel a little bit better, but then it reminds me of how, you know, my dad sort of abandoned me. u__u;

This is why I get mad at myself whenever I start to feel bad; I know there are people out there who have it worse.

Regardless, here's another hug, Fisk.  *hugs Fisk*

Hmm. Im sorry. *hugs fisk* Someones death isnt ur fault though. And the dog thing isnt either. I know how you feel though about the dad thing. My dad left me when I was reeeeaaaal young. And the only b-day he ever came to was my 7th. Im 14. Sooo, yeah. You can always vent here. We'll always listen and be here to console. *hugs fisk again*

Once again, thanks for the hugs.

I don't have it that bad, I just... ugh, my sister's a big part of it. She also made me have to get rid of Robbie. >: I found I can keep him, but I won't be able to get him until school starts again... >_>

I've been through worse, but this is pretty bad for now, at least. >:

How well a single post office is funded has no part on what items it will recieve. At least, that's how I think it works.

I recall somewhere that stated it was illegal to open someone else's mail... And the whole thing about how you may be able to somehow do something against the post office in case items weren't sent to the proper address.

Then again, I may be completely off...

I could think of something to do to get the message across to your family...

*hug*

Still, remember, Fisk. TDC is perfect for venting, and letting out some steam can really help. Don't think for a second that you can't tell us what's wrong. ;)

I was over at a friend's house last night, so I wasn't able to check what you guys were saying. I love all of you so much, thanks for being here for me. ;0;

Both being over at my friends house and having all of you support me like this is just amazing... I don't feel... what's the word?... guilty? Yeah, guilty. And sad. I'm not sad today, either. (:

Oh, and my friend has kittens and two enormous lazy fat long-haired cats... they made me feel better, too... of course, the kittens were insane! they kept grabbing my hair and almost made me cry while playing Silent Hill... XD!

Who can stay sad for long around kittens and cats?

I was sad as hell when the dumb cat jumped out of a box at me while playing Silent Hill 4. Well, no, not sad, I suppose... kind of sad that Henry almost died, and freaked out.

Also, playing Silent Hill 4 made me happy, too. I got pretty far in the game, and it was just hilarious to watch Henry get hit on the escalator. It was like this:

Henry: -walks onto escalator and stops-
Escalator: -goes up-
Henry: -walk/run- 8D
Wall-man-monster-things(think a human torso fused with a wall): -appears out of nowhere and pimp-slaps Henry-
Henry: D8 -flies back about ten yards- -gets up-
Wall-monster: -pimp slap-
Henry: -flips forward and lands on his back about twenty feed ahead-

Man, it was totally worth almost dying.
