Never sleep when your mother is in a cleaning mood lest the goddamn ignorant fool decide to clean your wireless mouse with toothpaste.   :shakefist :shakefist

... That's just nauseatingly stupid of her.  Hopefully your mouse still functions?

Speaking of computers though, yesterday my computer decided it would pause every second or so.  I'd be at the desktop with nothing running and would twiddle the pointer around and it would pause.  So of course I do an antivirus sweep and find nothing, I use CCcleaner and such...  Nothing worked.  So I reformatted my C drive and reinstalled the OS.  New problem: It now has a greyish loading bar as the second screen when it turns on.

One of these days I need to get my body and mind working well enough to get a job or else I'm fucked.

She thought the toothpaste was 'gentler' than soap and wouldnt hurt anything.  Using new mouse now...

I have the head cold from fucking Baator right now.

I'm starting to get over it, but man, I have a migraine like you wouldn't believe...

I have a sinus infection.  I also have a feeling it's going to get worse because I have to help move stuff out of my cousin's former house since he's now a "citizen of the state."

Edit:  Damn, the infection has spread to my right ear.  At lest I don't have to help move stuff though because my grandma said she wouldn't let me go out when I'm sick like this.  lol

What seems to be the problem with your hard drive? If you back up all your data you could try DBAN to wipe it clean and see if it lasts a little while longer;

Ive had the occasional blue screen for a while now.  Event ID always suggests it's bad ram.  Well they're starting to happen more often, so I checked again and sure enough the same error.  But then i notice 3 from earlier in the day, which was about the same time I ran defrag: Event ID 7, bad sectors.  So I run chkdsk.  I knew I had 3kb in bad sectors, but now I have 24.  WORD files are tending to give me corruption errors.  Occasionally an application fails (like when I try to shut off the pc), or open tabs in my browser just shut off.  The SMART data says it's ok, but the uncorrectable sector count and write error rate are iffy and they're getting worse.

And apparently I'll need to get Windows as well.  The copy my sisters freaked out ex-husband gave me may not be a legal one...
