System Recovery
May 24, 2006
Our family does not have good luck with any kind of electronics. Our computer pretty much just crashed, it wouldn’t start unless we did this “system recovery” thing. Well, it never occured to me that “system recovery” would mean loosing all our files and pretty much starting over fresh. Some how, MSN and AOL survived, so we still have the internet but we lost all of our music and photo files, which really sucks. We lost photos from the past year that we hadn’t gotten around to saving onto disk. So my mom’s a little ticked off. I am too, but next time we won’t upload pictures and delete them - unless they’re unimportant.
School today was, well school. Anthropology was fun, but that’s a given seeing as our teacher is so hot. Lunch was boring, as usual - and a bug was chasing me until Jeremy broke all it’s legs. It was kind of funny, but scary. That bug was really weird looking, I had to hide in the lunchroom until it was really dead. Even still, it’s dead body creeped me out.
During my spare I went to Subway because I was hungry. When I came back, I went into the Resource Room so I could read. I didn’t want to read in the lunchroom because there were a bunch of people in there that I don’t talk too and I didn’t want to be a loner. I got in trouble by Mrs. K though, for “distracting Jolena” and “being snotty”. I wasn’t even talking to Jolena, I just waved to her when she came in. And I asked Mrs. K if I could have a few sheets of paper, but I did so with a tone that apparently was really snobby, like I expected to get paper. Um, what the hell? She kicked me out of Resource for being a “distraction”, and told me to go to the library. That’s what I did and then while I was talking to Reisha and Desiree she called me inside (I was outside in that little courtyard thing). Then she proceeded to tell me I was ungrateful, snobby and rude. I hate that woman. She never gives me a spare moment to thank her, and I don’t even want to anymore! I mean I’m thankful for the stuff she’s done regarding my medical problem, but she acts like shes so noble and that I should worship her for “all” she does, plus she puts things in my mouth and never gives me the chance to say thank you. So why should I thank someone who’s always putting words in my mouth, calling me snobby and saying I won’t pass certain classes without her assistance?
Now I’m really not looking forward to the after math of my surgery, because I will have to be in the Resource Room with Mrs. K. I will go crazy, she’s unbarable for 75 minutes! How am I supposed to endure her for the whole day? I am so not looking forward to this.

You don’t have to take that shit. Look that bitch in the eyes, and say, “If you give me a chance to, I would say thank you.” If she keeps harping, yell “THANK YOU,” and punch her in the face. Okay maybe not that last part, but teachers are a weird breed, dude.

I agree…just because she’s an “adult” doesn’t mean you need to eat crap sandwiches whenever she feels like serving them.
Oh, and viz your computer problems?
Google “Knoppix Linux Live CD,” follow the link, then download it and burn it to disk.
It’s a lifesaver. (If you need help figuring out how to use it, you can find a bunch of really nice Linux geeks at http://www.linuxquestions.org (yes, I’m one of them…I’m even a nice guy there!).
