Country: | brakes went out on the car while my wife was driving to work today.
She's okay, the cars sort of fixed (Found another problem while that was going on)
The big weekend we have been planning and getting ready for all summer is now in doubt between the car and now not having the money to go.
This is why I hate planning stuff, it always falls apart at the last minute...
oh well, shark weeks on... |

Country: | Got the exchange rate for South African Rand wrong. Thought it was 150 to the pound when it is 15 which makes things a bit more expensive...

The poor salesman never knew what hit him.

Country: | Having to deal with my bipolar brother for 8+ hours while my mom was away. To top it off, he started talking to himself, and holding conversations!!! Normally this would be creepy, but I had work to do around the house so it was just plain annoying. |

Country: | I decided to format my computer's hard drive today... Only to find out that my hacked version of Windows XP would not take any of my CD keys and that the CD of my legal version of XP is too damaged to install properly.
So now I have a problem with my SoundMAX integrated sound card which makes me wonder if it's only the fault of my damaged version of XP or if my ASUS motherboard is giving up... |
