Reliable and trustworthy? Come again...

As you know, my beloved computer is supposed to get repaired. Last Thursday Sony called me to tell me that they would send DHL on Monday to get the piece back to repair it.

I told them then that the day wouldn't be perfect but I would try to see what I could do.


I then asked my parents to stay one day longer in Rennes in order for them to wait for DHL... And you know what? The guy never came!!!!


I had this weird feeling the whole day that it would end that way, but still I am furious. Can't you trust anyone anymore?

What if I had taken a day off for nothing? I swear I could strangle them all. :evil:

Okay kill me... now I'm going to be computerless!!!!!!!!!!

Well some people have decided that being without internet and TV wasn't bad enough, so soon I'll be without computer too :cry:

The poor little one showed signs of failures some months ago and after several attempts to revive him with the help of Sony, the word has come out: it needs to be repaired and I need to be without for at least two weeks :cry:

Of course I don't have another computer :roll: I mean when someone is crazy enough to put that much money on one computer, it's usually in the hope to have a very reliable piece. So here I stand, with only my eyes left to cry... And again I start to wonder if I should buy a little laptop...

Dammit life has really been crap in the last months :(

Internet less... NNNNOOOOOOO!!!!

Well I'm going off-line for the next 10 days. I'm moving out of my current appartment and French Telecom told me it'll be at least 10 days before I get my internet back... :(

As you can guess that kind of news is not really bringing a happy smile on my face as it also means I'll be without my favorite cable networks in that duration :cry:

I guess I'll be able to sort out the files on my computer as I won't have much more to do during that time :( And maybe I'll be able to write a little more. Who knows? ;)

So take care and I'll to you soon :D

Move along little one...

This week officially sucks :lol: As I still have a smile on my face you can see I'm not too serious about that, but still.

First my beloved parents are here which is always as usual a blessing and a curse. A blessing because without them I have no clue how I would have the time and opportunity to move out of my current flat. Also a blessing because it is definitely nice to come home to loving people waiting for you.
But it's also a curse... as much as I love my couch and can say that the bed in it is rather comfortable, it's still no match to a real bed and my back screams 'murder!' some morning ;) And of course when they are here they disrupt my little life as I can't spend as much time on my beloved computer :(

Second most of my colleagues and coworkers have decided to make this week as hard as possible for me. I've been on the roads the whole week and when not they seem to enjoy to bug me with pointless problems that would drive a saint crazy and I'm no saint ;)

Did I already mention the fact that I hate to move? Okay it's not really true, but this move is the worst ever. Why? Because I can't get into my very own flat. The damn building is not finished so I need to spend two months in a smaller apartment :roll: I sure hope my place is worse the pain and inconvenience :D

Happy New Year 2007

Yeah I know, that's nothing very original :P But who said I needed to be?

So let me take a little time to wish you and your beloved ones all the very best for 2007. I hope it will bring you everything you've been longing for: happiness, good health, great achievements in your career or at school and most of all tons of love :D

And don't be too hard on yourself when you look at all the things that you can improve in your character. We wouldn't love you as much if you weren't you ;) So forget the drastic resolutions and just be yourself, be kind to the people around deserving or not and enjoy life.

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2007!!!!

Who the hell invented the phone?

Have you ever had this weird feeling in the morning that the day to start was going to be a painful one? Well I had hardly arrived at work that the whole dance started :?

THEY have decided that today was going to be a crap day for me and my team. Yes THEY, with that expletive I mean all the annoying people who could possibly bother us. They seem to have taken a number and queue at our doors and phones... It's almost as if some of us had a 'kick me' sign attached to their backs or foreheads :x

I feel like screaming or even better... Running away... It's a coward's answer, but I think it would feel great ;)
Thankfully only one and half day of work left before a sweet week of vacations and I can only hope that I'll survive until then :D I know one can always dream...

At least the sun is shining, which is good after all the rain the sky has graced us with in the past weeks. I don't mind cold weather, but rain that's just not for me...

New level!! What's the weather like?... Yeah I know...

Well I didn't stay a little wonder long. Now I'm a Talk Show Host. People, who know me well, will tell you that it's fitting as I can talk anyone to death :lol:

That reminds me of my blessed (?) school years. Every time we were in study and the person in charge had to leave, I was always the one asked to make sure everyone stayed quiet. I once asked why and the guy told me, I had a nice speaker voice. That was the weirdest compliment I ever got :lol:

My hard-drive is definitely not working the way it should. It's currently working enough to allow me to work on the data and save what I need. I think I'll have to contact the manufacturer to ask them what to do. For once I was clever enough to take a 3-year guarantee.

And now the important question! What's the weather like where you live? Here it's a nightmare. I mean we're now in June and it still feels like April. It's cold, rainy... They keep telling us it's going to improve, but the first look through my window in the morning usually makes me want to go back to bed. So today no big surprise either: no sun, about 13°C and pretty cloudy. They again said it would improve this weekend, yeah sure I so believe you. Aren't weather people the worst liars in the world? I often wonder, would we even notice if they gave us the weather of last year? I mean they are so often wrong... I wonder I still bother listening to them :(

My computer is dying on me...

Life sucks... yeah big time. My beloved home PC (hardly a year old) is showing clear signs of failure. The hard drive seems to have given up on me. And of course it happens now at the beginning of a very busy week, so I'll have no other choice than to hope it will hold a little longer before I go computer-less...

I'm jinxed I think. Currently everything that can go wrong, goes wrong. Appliances break, things get lost, important papers seem to have gone lost in the mail... I wonder how long that will last :(

Level 6!!! And still don't know how to post pics...

Yeah I know I could have asked... But I didn't :roll:

So level 6! Now I'm a little wonder :D Of course it's a very appropriate description for me, I'm sure you will all agree :lol: Okay I'll stop the nonsense, before anyone throws something my way. I currently just love to submit stuff. I just got my CSI NY DVDs of season 1 so I guess I'm just at the beginning of big submissions :D I'm also very late at doing reviews for the episodes I've seen. I'll have Lost, all 3 CSI, Medium, ER and Cold Case I absolutely need to submit some.

And I feel a little guilty lately. I have started 2 fics on ER, I haven't been able to continue with them in days. To add another insult to that, I actually started to write something completely different *hits her head on her desk*. L, I hope you realize you're partially to blame for that!!! I just can hope I'll be able to go on with ER now that it's finally written down. But I kinda doubt it. Someone please hit me on the head for that?

Hate? Love? And other thoughts about Finale week...

There are many series I watch. I've been a TV addict since the tender age of 4. It started with Trek and Wild Wild West (R. Conrad and W. Shatner were my heroes) and it never became any better :lol:

Living in France, I gave up on French TV many years ago as the stupid dubbing is more than getting on my nerves (see previous blog on that). So now I'm basically watching US TV.

Currently I'm in my worst and best week of the year. Finale!!! I have been waiting for them, dreading the cliffhangers we'll probably get on some shows and hoping major mysteries to be explained. I live the hyper mood in which I am. I can barely concentrate on my work and I'm lucky that there is nothing major to be done this week :D
Tonight is CSI:NY finale :D, I can't wait to see it. This season has been so much better than last year's and the preview looks amazing.
Tomorrow will be CSI and ER finales. I'm not sure about those. I feel like I will need a bunch of tissues to go through :( but it's okay I'll be ready to see what comes my way.
Monday I'll get the CSI: Miami finale... I just want to find out who the mole is. This question has been bugging me for quite a while and I'm ready. This season has been a major disappointment for me. Depending on who the mole is, I'll decide if I'll go on watching or not :(

What will be left? Lost, Medium and Cold Case. I will have to be a little more patient or those. But it's okay I'm not tha thooked on them anymore.

But then once I'm down from my high, I will have to face the long months without my favorite series :( and that really sucks. Thank god for DVDs :D and of course I will have to go on writing my fics... which reminds me that I'm terribly late on the one I'm currently writing... damn... I'll be good and write something tonight :)
