Ahahaha. That part about my monitor dying? It's now dead. Which means no more than two hours a night on the internet until Jessops return my mp3 player money (which I seriously doubt will be any time soon) and definitely no milliways_bar. LE SUCK. I will do the applications as promised, if a little slowly, but no playing.

And it's so annoying, too, because I was actually really enjoying writing a fic. It's one of those kinda "Oh if my monitor were alive, such fic would I write," moments, which no one really believes, but in this case it is actually TRUE. Ah well - at least all I've written so far was in emails so I still have it about and can work on it down here in the... *shudders* family space.

*kicks things*

I am DETERMINED, however, to find a bright side, and the bright side is this; now I have a completely justifiable reason to buy a purdy flatscreen monitor. Oh baby, oh baby. XD

That sucks, hon. I'm sorry.

Can you borrow the family computer's monitor for Crazy O'Clock playing hours, maybe? It's not like anybody will be needing it in the middle of the night.

I really really can't. BUT, if I get confirmation from Jessops that my order will be cancelled and I will get the money back (which, considering I've already had one email from them, shouldn't take long) I can use other money I have to buy the monitor. I just need the other money, so I can't use it unless I know I'll get it back. See?

IT'S NOT GONE YET! IT'S ONLY BEEN A DAY! SHOCK IT AGAIN! CLEAR!

It is not pining. It is an ex-monitor. It was nailed to the perch.

It is pining for the... cords? Is it plugged in? :P

I know. She who would pun would pick a pocket. I'm crying on the inside, really. *snicker*

...Okay, Holly, now I love you more than you might be strictly comfortable with.

Except that I also now want to watch M&C again, and I don't have time.

Damn you.

SO DO I. It is a constant problem. It's just that you can't turn it on as background or whatever - it's always 'oh - it's that part! I can't miss the Galapagos/that battle/brain surgery/the weevils/Maturin swordfighting/the Big Gay Duet/ETC ETC ETC.' For the whole. damn. movie.

You are not helping. You and your evil icons. *stares wistfully*

Maturin swordfighting. And how Jack rescues him. And how desperate he looks when it's over, and how he drops his sword. And and and.

*FLAILS*

That bit... there's so much going on that every time I see that bit there's something I haven't noticed before that makes me go D:!

...Okay, soon as I get home from work, I'm watching that part, if nothing else. Like I can say no to the rest. That whole ending... Jack is all DIE FRENCH SCUM and then WAH STEPHEN and then when he goes to meet the doctor/captain, and that guy tries to stab him from under the table or whatever it is and Jack doesn't kill him but gives him that 'nice try buddy, you'll get yours' look, and the guy just crawls back under the table.

Or I could watch it now. OR I COULD GO TO WORK. DAMMIT.
