Ack!! *

Well, this is lovely.

We have to reformat the desktop computer. There’s something messed up and it won’t let me reinstall our Norton Internet Security. Not to mention that we’ve only had use of half of our hard drive because Jake partitioned it weird so that he could have Linux on here, too….but he took that off a long time ago. Not that THAT part matters, because well, we have a 300GB hard drive anyway, and even with only being able to use half of it, I still have like, 80% free space, even with the oodles of junk I have on here.

But man….it is such a pain to reformat, because now I have to get everything burned on to CDs that I don’t want to lose. And that is a LOT of stuff, my friends.

I actually have to go buy a new copy of Norton, though. The one we have came with one of the driver discs for some of our hardware, and Jake didn’t write down the registration number or whatever, so we’re kinda screwed there. Yay, another $70 we don’t have…..but I’ve been paranoid as hell, not having any sort of anti virus program on here.

Anyway.

Well, now it’s Thursday morning, and once again, I STILL haven’t gone to bed. I’m actually going to try and stay up all day though, so that I can go to bed at a decent time tonight and attempt to get myself on a normal sleep cycle again. We’ll see how that works out….

Poor Riley has something wrong with his urinary tract, I think. A couple of weeks ago, we noticed that one of the cats peed on the mushroom chair….we didn’t think too much of it, even though that’s the first time anything like that has happened. But over the past few days, we’ve noticed that Riley is CONSTANTLY in the litter box, and I noticed this morning that he was making these weird growling noises sometimes when he was in there, almost like he was in pain…..AND he peed in the box we kept from Jake’s boots (the cats love to play with it)……poor guy. So I need to go to PetSmart and get some stuff for him, and I’m praying that it’ll do the trick because we can’t afford to take him to the vet right now. In the 2 1/2 years that we’ve had Riley, this is the first time he’s ever been sick or anything.

Anyway. Must do stuff to keep myself occupied. I am SO tempted to go crawl into bed, though…..Much as I want to, I highly doubt I’m gonna make it through the day with no sleep.
