I feel like shit. Dizzy, nauseated, achy, congested and I can hardly walk because I feel so weak.
Also I have had mono, I was five or so. It was so bad I still remember it.

:D Got my Food Lion W-2, which means I have all three of my W-2s (the other two are from the NCDES, a.k.a the unemployment people, and Orange Blossom).

Half of it's going towards moving to Orlando. Well, my mom's moving down there late March. When she's set up with a job (she's looking to get a job at Disney World) and a place (she's not looking for an apartment, since she doesn't want to get rid of our dogs), we'll be ready to move down there with her.

Smile: when I opened my work laptop today and found a message from my wife saying "I am so blessed to have you"

Ticked me off: when I came home and she happened to be in a bad mood making the message completely null.

I know...it is irresponsible of me to even have a complete copy of Earthbound lying around. What if one of my children opened it while I was at work, and I came home to find her covered in small plasitc bags and cardboard inserts? How awful would I feel then? I really should get rid of it. I can't drive around with it, and I'm pretty sure the police department won't take it off my hands. My local game store will only give me pennies on the dollar, and since it doesn't perform background checks, I have no idea where it might end up. Just think how awful I would feel if my copy of Earthbound ended up in the hands of a some Nintendoage member (or - worse yet someone who tracks their collection on rfgeneration...<shudder>...) I dont' know what do!!! Maybe I will just have it graded so that no one...NO ONE...can open it ever again...

Just lost an eBay auction for a Gamecube with Hori controller, so I am a little sad about that.

Naw, the note is still solid. Things happen to us all everyday, doesn't change the original sentiment.

Ticked: Things breaking :x

On Sunday the plasma TV that I bought in May 2011 stopped turning on and is emanating a clicking sound when it is plugged in. I suspect some bad caps or a bad board, but am not sure if I want to investigate and replace it myself, pay to get it fixed, or buy a new one. None of the options is a good one, and it is ridiculous that a Samsung TV (supposedly a good name) would conk out less than a year after the warranty expired.

Much worse: this morning I woke up to about six inches of water in the basement. The sump pump that we replaced in September 2011 isn't working, and so I am on my way shortly to Home Depot as the fucker is supposed to have a lifetime warranty (just like the last one :roll: )

To top it off, the water got high enough overnight to reach the oil furnace's burner housing and the bottom of the washer and dryer. These are all turned off right now, but when the water recedes it will be a crapshoot as to whether or not anything in these need to be replaced.

So yeah, great fucking week so far :x
