I had 27 viruses just because I forgot to turn off cookies on one of my three browsers, and it was the most important one to have them turned off on. Facepalm

So I told Biker during the beginning of December to not buy himself anything between then and Christmas. Last Tuesday I bought him a blu-ray player for his Christmas present. Guess what he did this weekend? He bought himself a new TV, a sound bar, and a freakin blu-ray player. Mad
Dump him.

I've tried that twice with no success. Both drives were seagate drives. The second time I got the drive to activate, but it still wouldn't spin. Lesson: don't buy seagate drives.
Iagree Seagate drives are JUNK Argue

He's a man Roll Eyes (Sarcastic) I'm sure you got better deals but keep them for you Strong or return them. Buy him socks and underwear and explain to him later his gaffe. He could have had an awesome present. Now he has socks and underwear.

Don't dump him. He sat through that wretched wedding with you. I hope he got some road head on the way home to thank him for that Cloud9

VViles nailed it. nod Tell him gently how he f'ed up. He probably completely forgot you told him that, and a guy's love for technology and hardware is a hard thing to deny/overcome.



In other weekend f-up and recovery news, my media room computer is about 97% reconfigured and working. Right now, the sound is not coming out the optical SPDIF cable to my receiver, but I'm not going to pursue it any further tonight. It's probably something really simple/stupid, but just not worth my time right now.

I just confirmed it. There's a map in The Dark Knight Rises that Commissioner Gordan is looking at, and he says "We have to get the GPS on it and find a way to take it down". At that moment he puts his hand on the only legible words on the map, and the location is Sandy Hook . . . . where the school shooting took place on Friday. The tin foil hat side of me thinks that The Dark Knight Rises was a trigger for this kid, and was preprogrammed to do this shooting.

I'm not dumping him, but it took all the fun out of giving him a gift. I told him that I was giving him a blu-ray player, and he apologized over and over again. He tried to cancel his order from Amazon, but I think it's too late.

No road head, since he rented a hotel room within walking distance of the wedding. It was the most expensive hotel I have ever been in. (ok, all I've ever been in previously is holiday inn express, lol) I did show my appreciation over and over again. Wink Plus I was wearing this garter skirt under my dress.

Of course, the downside to sleeping so late this morning, is I'm wide awake tonight.
