Mar. 15th, 2010 09:31 pm My LCD screen failed today - the sounds of electricity crackling and the smell of burnt plastic filled the air. I am lucky, because all that really matters is the hardware. I'm going to go ahead and purchase another one, but I'm not sure what size yet.
I'm looking at this positively, it will give me a chance to clean my room out and hopefully set my desk up better by tearing it apart. I want to be able to have a monitor and my keyboard right in front, with the computer keyboard right below it. It's not a perfect desk but it will do for now.
My diploma is still taken care of hopefully soon. If not I'm still going to try and get a vehicle and another job. Who knows, maybe I'll go back to the mill for awhile. It won't be permanent but it will waste some of the time I have to blow here in this shit hole. I'm lonely enough as it is most of the time, might as well work for a part of it to keep my mind off of it. I'm never going to fit, better just get used to that though.
I was working on a really great song when it went. Luckily I hadn't modified the file from its prior save point.
It's always nice to take a step away from what I earned, I guess. I did earn every piece of what I have so far. I just haven't earned my own place yet. The mill won't be a good job to have for that. I'll have to get something in a larger metropolitan area, Warren would suffice but I'm not sure there's any decent jobs there that would pay enough for me to get by. Moving is out of the question until I have a decent sum of money. That's just the reality. I don't have the tools to do it...I don't have parents with money, I may have friends here and there that want to help but it just won't be enough and will just lock me in somewhere else. I don't want to be locked down, I want to have some freedom and that only comes with security.
And I have improved my music a great deal. Leaps and bounds over the years. It's not even a change in technology as much as it is just beginning to understand the whole system. I may not be a perfect singer but my voice is the only one that's going to express what I feel.
I've settled on 19" with the same aspect ratio and resolution with 75hz refresh. 3 year warranty. 120 dollars. It'll do everything my last one did without straining my video card further. It's monday, should be here within a few days, and then I can resume that song.
That's that...shit sucks emotionally right now but that's just the way it goes.
