   Muches of Fun
That's what this beast is. Besides a messed up tangle of electronic components that work when they want to. I have Linux (Whee! The penguin!) running on this beast, and my WinXP disc desides to crap out on me with the stop error c0000221 during installation, which tells me the disk is now bad. So my dad will need to buy a new WinXP disc for this beast. That means that we'll actually get SP2! Yay! My Linux's native browser (Konqueror, on a RedHat KDE, whatever) sucks. No javascript, and no Java. Then there's the fact that I can only do half of what I want to do...


Now, the fun part! Since I wanted FireFox on this Linux beast, I downloaded the .tar.gz file, which was handily opened for me by linux. Now I can't do anything with the files to install it because I'm missing some library file! I've been google-ing and clicking and I can't find the files! If anyone happens to be knowledgeable in Linux, PLEASE! Tell me what I need to do to install libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 library/ies! I beg of you! lol! :P


My day was uneventful. I went swimming in the pool we will soon be draining. The water is all murky and green. It's gross. My dad's giving it a good shocking treatment and leaving the filter on overnight in an attempt to save it, but we don't know what all you can do. The water's gross. All 1,000+ gallons of it. It'd take 3 days straight to drain the thing, and we have to stick the hose from the air pump into the pool's release valve thing, and the pump's hose into the inside of a garden hose to run it down the driveway and down the street so we don't flood out peoples' basements when the water is seeping through the ground. What a pain.


As you can see, my day was pretty bad. I guess I'm lucky I have internet, but I hate how I have it. All the stress/anger has given me scramble brain, as you can see.

Well, it's late/early, so I should go to bed.

EDIT:I have more rambling! :P
Well, I did, but I forgot what I was going to ramble about! Oops!
