    If one of my family members invites me to play "Bubble Safari Ocean" on Facebook one more goddamn time, I'm going to lose it! :mad:

    So at work I'm doing a machine install. This particular machine has two HDD's RAID1'd together. While I'm running Windows updates, the RAID array spits one of the disks. I was gonna do some detective work to see which hard drive is dead, but boss said "Just reboot and try re-building the array. Maybe it's a controller glitch."
    ...right. Okay.
    So I reboot. The array starts rebuilding itself when Windows boots. Cool.
    I run the second round of Windows updates (there's *always* another round of Windows updates). Machine now requires a reboot. I can't reboot the machine while the RAID controller is rebuilding the array, or else really funky stuff happens. (It's Intel. I don't ask questions.)
    Because of a pending machine reboot, there are lots of programs that I can't install because they detect that a reboot is necessary.
    Therefore, because I'm sitting on my hands while a RAID array rebuilds itself, I can't clock time that I'm not actively doing something. (Technically I *can* but I hate doing it because it makes me feel like a deadbeat).
    The array has been re-building for three hours.
    Blargh.

    I had a cold over Christmas, that was okay. Now I have some sort of stomach thing. Either I ate something bad or I picked up a virus somewhere. It could be worse...

    I got this flier from redplu.com that is essentially coupons. I saw a coupon for Nivea lotion & Cream and the first thought that came to mind was "Man, Nivea sucks for masturbating, best stick to vaseline lotion".

    Vaseline lotion is actually very good and I also use it on my back because when it's winter the skin on my back becomes so dry it feels like it's on fire. I've sampled so far 3 lotion packs and its the one that moisturizes as well as minimize chaffing.

    My life is sad.

    reminded me of a Jeff Foxworthy joke I think it was. Ended something like "if your maintenance man is on permanent disability from that superglue incident in 1986".

    :) Sad indeed, I would like to know how do you get it on you back?
    Never use lotion for masturbating, always use oil.

    That's gotta be one sexy hospital. ;) If the San Fernando Valley has taught me anything (and I like to think that it has), you're just about to start the orgy with your sponge bath.

    mmmmmmm, naked ZombieSquirrel getting a sponge bath from a hot n sexy nurse.......

    Seriously, feel better. Kick some MS ass.
