Oh please, we get at least a few weeks of decent temperatures. Florida winter can be equated to the UK getting a summer period for how long it stays around.
I'd be excited about wearing jackets if I didn't tend to wear one in my freezer at work every week.
Can't say I'm excited to be going to GDQ, not because I don't want to go, but rather I just seem to have a very difficult time getting excited about almost anything in life.

Yup, PC is just getting worse as it goes on. It actually gave me glitch artifacts when I turned on the TV one time, so I'm going to call this a lost cause and just get a new PC. Which is a slight problem, as I'm supposed to be saving my money for another big dollar purchase, and now need to figure out how I'm gonna buy both...

I don't know if it would be useful to you at all (and even then, it's credit and I'm not a big fan of resorting to it) but when I was having issues with my fees for this past semester I got an Amazon credit card and threw it on there so I could pay for it up front with the card and then just pay it off as I get the money in for it. @ ShiraNoMai applied for it though so I dunno if it has any requirements attached to it at all or not. Although I wouldn't blame you for not wanting to pursue such a choice at all.
I wonder if that power thing you installed in your PC a short while ago lead to the problems you're having now or if I'm just clutching at straws for a reason why it bugged out?

Honestly, the hardest problem I had was finding a PC that my power supply would fit. Motherboards come in all shapes and sizes, and each one has its own kind of power supply, so I was really struggling to find a new one. But I found it, and you mentioning the credit card reminded me "Oh yeah, I'm supposed to have a really low APR for basically the rest of this year; that's not a bad idea!"

*had to look up what APR is again*
Ah, so whatever new PC you get will use the new power supply? I'd have thought a new one would come with its own one already.

Oh, it will have one, but it most certainly won't have one that will support the beast of a graphics card I have, so I need the new one to be able to plug that in.

Oh I see. I'd be worried that any of the parts in the totalled PC are what's causing the problem with it and that putting them in a new PC will just bring the problem over and show that I wasted my time and money getting a new PC in the first place.

Hey there Nebulous. Today certainly is a happy Monday for once as I have the day off from work today. 
Ah, California--oh my, it's after 2AM there, going to bed soon or are you a night owl?

@ Mr EliteL: I'm curious, what days do you usually get off each week?
Just had lunch at an Indian restaurant; it was okay but I still find that for all the spices Indian food has it always seems like it's lacking somewhere.

Got a shift moved to Thursday so I now have Sunday, Tuesday & Wednesday off unless I'm covering on one or more of those days, Sunday working is rare though. So it's good getting a single Monday off to get 4 days.

I guess you don't get a choice about working Sundays over Saturdays? Just because personally I think Sunday is always the better choice (in the UK) because of the limited opening hours guaranteeing you get a short day and Sunday is a common day for holidays which gets extra pay or a paid day off.
Also fun fact about the hotel I'm staying in; apparently the in-house feed for SGDQ is running on a VCR for some reason because that was what the hotel had to send a feed to all the rooms. I'm surprised a hotel even has a working VCR in 2023.

I prefer working Saturdays as that's the day I'm willing to stay longer if need be, plus it's the day I chose since I started anyway, Sundays I'd do only the morning shift if I'm covering (6-12), so it leaves afternoon open to do whatever, used to be the day we'd usually do stuff as family although that tends to be either Wednesday, Friday (after shift too), or Sunday, but not always every week. Or at least I don't take part every week.
Huh, VCR for the GDQ feed. Well that's something.
