Mourning for the loss

Shiolar · Post by **Shiolar** » Thu Jun 15, 2006 12:10 pm

I was paying attention. However, I'll draw your attention to several key points:
1) I can't sleep when it's light.
2) I require eight hours sleep per day in order to function correctly.
3) The hours of darkness around here currently number only 5.5 hours per night.
4) I'm really, really stupid when I haven't had enough sleep.

I'll go upload AIM for you, shall I?

Solution: Get curtain liners.

Could ya? Thanks. Thing won't let me log on, and I hate the new version anyway. *sighs*

We already have curtain liners. They don't block out enough light. When I said I can't sleep when it's light, I'm serious... I'm really, really sensitive to high light levels...

I'll just keep going until I get so exhausted that I have to sleep when it's light... I usually have to take several days off work just for that purpose a couple times every summer...

Cover the windows. Board them up.

You could take some cardboard boxes and put them in your windows. That's what my brother did.

Shiolar · Post by **Shiolar** » Thu Jun 15, 2006 12:20 pm

Can't. Would have to drill holes in the wall and stuff. I'd rather miss sleep than cut the value of the house...

oy. Now Aim gets to step three before it says 'fuck you bitch' and won't let me log in.

But... I have 1337 steps in FF6 now

You sure you got the right username and password or something?

For cardboard boxes? My brother used packing tape and they held just fine. If that doesn't work then you could use some sticky stuff you can find at the store. Though sadly. I' forgot what it's called.

Dude, don't insult my intelligence.

It's called sticky TACK. *jabs shadow with stick* I say we operate on him

I meant for Merc's suggestion of boards...

Cardboard boxes would be too heavy to stick up with the crappy tape we get over here... tried cardboard boxes before, you see.

What we did once was pin a sleeping bag up to the window, but it had to be held up with snooker cues and old table legs. Unfortunately, due to the size of the bedroom, such a method now would require not having a bed in there.

Good point.

Shiolar · Post by **Shiolar** » Thu Jun 15, 2006 12:30 pm

Wasn't insulting your intelligence... It's something I do all the time after a reformat, though... I forget the password to my AIM s/n, so I can't get back into it and have to create a new one.

I guess the other option is something's blocking the connection from AIM to AIM's server. You got a firewall or anything running?

Carodos · Post by **Carodos** » Thu Jun 15, 2006 12:33 pm

I meant good point about the bed.

But AIM suddenly working now.

Edit: And it died again

1: I'm female
2: I'm fine
3: DON"T POKE WITH A STICK AGAIN!
*brings out knife and backs out into a corner*

Carodos · Post by **Carodos** » Thu Jun 15, 2006 12:38 pm

1. I'm female
2. You've obviously been lobotimized
3. I poke everyone with the stick so DEAL.

Shadow · Post by **Shadow** » Thu Jun 15, 2006 12:46 pm

No, I'm just crazy. *cuts the end of the stick with the knife*

Carodos · Post by **Carodos** » Thu Jun 15, 2006 12:50 pm

*looks at Shi* Did she just cut the tip off the Zack poking stick?

Shiolar · Post by **Shiolar** » Thu Jun 15, 2006 12:52 pm

It would appear so, yes... You should have made it out of something a little more durable.

Carodos · Post by **Carodos** » Thu Jun 15, 2006 12:56 pm

That would defeat the point of being a stick!

Mystic Dragon · Post by **Mystic Dragon** » Thu Jun 15, 2006 1:03 pm

But now you can call it a club.

Carodos · Post by **Carodos** » Thu Jun 15, 2006 1:03 pm

*cries* But it was my Zack poking STICK

..well, it's still a stick, isn't it? Just significantly shorter.
..coff. >.>

Carodos · Post by **Carodos** » Thu Jun 15, 2006 1:05 pm

*whimpers and hus DNS* Can you fix my stick? The mean girl broke it!

A leather clad Sanger comes in and hoses down the whole lot.

"Sticks, clubs, pointy objects... feh! Nothing beats a good fistfight."

*tries to leave without getting pummeled by sticks.*

x.x Yup, 'updating' stuff seems to just make it worse... additions just seem to bog the original elements of the proggie down. Such a pain sometimes. Usually just quit out of the optional updates window that pops up nowadays, anyhow... considering most of it's for things I /never/ use anyways. XD

*covers stick with metal*

Carodos · Post by **Carodos** » Thu Jun 15, 2006 1:18 pm

Yes you can, but you will be ignored.
