Best Buy or Breast Bi?
Sep. 2nd, 2004 01:30 amIt will be seven to fourteen days before I get my computer back. Yes, that's right, seven to fourteen days. Looks like I'm going to catch up on my reading and PS2 gaming this month... But no distractions from making music is good, right? Right.
Do you want to know how blind and dumb I am? Being paranoid, I cleared out everything on my computer I would be embarassed to have a stranger see: all the porn's gone, all my NC-17 fiction has been saved to disks. I'm scott-free, right? WRONG! In all my fussing, I completely forget about the female nude drawing that Lesley made which I have been using for my desktop picture! So the Friendly Service Technician plugs my computer in, turns it on and BOOM! Carefully-shaded, meticulously grey-scaled knockers right there in the middle of Best Buy. It's been my background image for so long that I don't even think about it anymore, but you can bet I was thinking about it then! I think my face must have matched the maroon shirt I was wearing. The guy didn't say anything, although I did notice that he was quick to place the diagnostic window directly over the incriminating area. Eh, I know these computer techs have seen much, much worse in the course of their work, but it was still embarassing as hell and left me with serious doubts about my brain power. I'm just glad the three little old ladies in line directly behind me didn't see it. Or if they did, they didn't say anything.
Once past the issue of the boobies, however, the tech did tell me that something on my comp was running considerably slower than it ought to be, so it appears something really is wrong. And I'm probably going to have to shill out money to get spyware removed since software issues aren't covered by my warranty.
So for the next 7-14 days it appears all I can do is while away my time with L5R cards, books, songwriting, movies, and video games as i sit huddled in my basement wondering how many stranger's eyes are seeing Lesley's drawing's breasts and jumping to conclusions about what those breasts say about me as a person.
