So. The display driver whatchamacallit thingy on my computer decided to go all warped yesterday afternoon. It was displaying in 16 colour and everything and I couldn't change it .. I felt like I was using our old 286 from '92 or something ... quite disconcerting.

BUT. Thanks to the nicest guy in Belgium, nay, in the world, my computer is now working beautifully. And I say the nicest guy in the world because you'd have to be to put up with someone as computer-illiterate as me whilst explaining such things using only MSN Messenger ... without even once cursing at me. Despite these facts, my parents still won't spring for a plane ticket to Belgium for me ... but I'm wearing them down, damnit. Oh yes. Just wait ...

Oh dear god ... less than ten days until Christmas ... where does the time go? Have I done any Christmas shopping? No. Bad me.

Secret confession: I kinda like Christmas lights. And falling snow. And fireplaces. And decorated trees. And the smell of pine. And making gingerbread houses. And wrapping presents. But ssshhhh .. don't TELL anyone, OK?

There. Now everyone knows I'm a mushy little sap. No big secret there ... right?

Anyway, I feel much better having confessed that ... I think I'll finally be able to sleep now.

Goodnight.
