18 is my new unlucky number. Most people probably pick more traditional unlucky numbers like 6 or 13, but for me, it's 18. The reason is because two days ago on the 18th, everything that could possibly have gone wrong did and just when I thought it couldn't get any worse, it did.
At the very start of the day, I booted up my computer as I usually do, but it didn't start up normally. Instead, it initiated some kind of diagnostic process, eventually "blue-screened", and promptly rebooted. This process repeated itself over and over again without end leaving no doubt in my mind that my computer was royally f**ked.
The rebooting issue was eventually resolved when the added memory was removed, but the hard drive was completely corrupted and had to be reformatted. I lost everything; all the games I'd installed, the music I'd downloaded (fortunately, I had most of my music backed up to a CD), and the pics. I mustn't forget the pics, a lot of them helped me get through those long, lonely, gfless nights. :cry:
As if some omnipresent authority figure felt I didn't have to deal with enough crap for one day, I was struck with the worst chest pains imaginable, so painful in fact that I had to struggle just to breathe. I was rushed out to the emergency room where I remained until about 2 or 3 in the morning before the doctors x-rayed me and determined that my problem was what I fondly referred to as a muscle cramp from hell.
Needless to say, I wasn't in any mood to do much of anything the next day after having to deal with this sh*t, which explains my recent inactivity.
BTW, today sucked, too. Not as bad as two days ago, but it still sucked. I had to reformat my hard drive again because a sh*tload of malware was uploaded and installed to my computer while I was checking out a wallpaper site. A little tip to everyone: avoid boyis.com like the f**king plague!
