Of all the nights for me to wake up, wide awake, at four in the morning, it's a night when I have class the following morning.
Grump.
Woke up, absolutely could not get back to sleep, and so here I am, two hours later, LJing.
In more interesting news, the new AIM (5.5) allows you to link screennames. Which is good, because I've got my personal screenname and then my brinshannara75 screenname. And I am never online as brinshannara75. Only now I am, because hey, I can also be online with my other one.
Sweet. So hey, feel free to IM me at brinshannara75, since, you know, I should be around on it more frequently.
On the other hand, the new AIM has that irritating notification window thingy that MSN has. Mine's already turned off. ;) But hey, some people (![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
trexphile) seem to like it, so as long as I can turn off the annoying stuff, I don't much mind.
And, in other, less interesting news, it's Friday the 13th. Whee. I'm not generally very superstitious, and I know lots of Friday the 13ths have come and gone without anything bad happening to me on those dates, but...
March 13th, 1987: Car accident in Florida, when the rented car my parents, brother, grandmothers and I were in got smashed up by a drunk driver. No serious injuries, but my mom had some deep bruises and since I was sitting in the middle front seat of the car, my head went over the dashboard, scraping the underside of my jaw, and allowing me a lovely view of the windshield as it cracked in a spiderwebby pattern.
September 13th, 2002: Got laid off from a crappy job, and haven't really found steady work since then. It was more of a relief than anything else, though. A blessing in disguise, one could say. But still, I was slowly getting out of debt, and got smacked down again.
So, yeah, not great Friday the 13ths, but today, barring the lack of sleep, looks promising. One of my Hattrick players gained a level to be brilliant, and this makes me happy. Oh yes, it does. And, oh yes, I'm a geek.
Finally, tomorrow is Valentine's Day. The current plan is to buy myself chocolate and eat it, while wondering to myself what to do about the current state of my love life, or lack thereof. Anyone want to join me on that? :)
