Excessive

I've been working on school all evening, and it's very difficult considering how tired I am.

Bekki is in Peterborough or some other useless place... she's there to take a class at some University, to get a non-violent crises intervention credit thing, so that she can get a placement for her school, and that was the only one accepted students, so she had to drive for four hours this morning to get there, and pay for a hotel to stay over night and finishes it tomorrow.

Failing at the whole writing thing... the whole routine thing. Oops.

Alright so I haven't been writing lately and awhile ago it was because I was feeling severely depressed and upset and my routine was off and I felt weird and writing wasn't on my mind. Alternatively and more recently, I've been too busy being happy and reading, playing Mass Effect and working in the garden and watching movies and writing slips from my mind, but I know that that's bad. I know that losing my routine is dangerous, and I already feel regret and anger over missing writing this month, so I need to change that.

I didn't get to bed until late last night for a few reasons... one of the reasons being I had to help Michelle get Diablo 2 working correctly, and that took until around 1:30am, which wasn't really in the plan. Initially, the problem was that when she went into multiplayer, and click on TCP/IP, the host and join game buttons were greyed out, and it displayed 'Diablo 2 could not determine a valid ip address'. Obviously she has a valid ip, since she's online, can play other tcp/ip based games (StarCraft for instance), and I personally just recently set up her router, so I knew she had a specific ip address. Regardless of how stupid it was, I decided to reinstall Dablo 2, fresh from real cds (I lent her mine) and that's what we did. Once it was reinstalled, we discovered it was still fucked up just as before, so I did more google searching, and found this random, unrelated article that had something to do with Wine (not the drink) and it mentioned that having your hostname as localhost can screw up some, if not all, tcp/ip based applications. I knew it was a long shot, but I decided to just see, because there was nothing else left I could really think of. I had her open her system properties, go to computer name, and there it was, Computer Name: localhost. I had her change it to muchelle, restart the computer, and test Diablo 2. Ta da... fixed. Here is a google friendly tip:

Regarding this website... Did you know that I could easily just enter an IP and have only a blank page displayed to them? They wouldn't even know why!!
