My computer nearly died there! It's been behaving badly lately. It likes to turn off and refuse to turn back on until I switched out the battery.

Last night it pulled the same trick, and I took out the battery, put it back in, and somehow jammed the thing in there and the release switch got stuck. And the bloody laptop still wouldn't turn on.

So just now my dad took the thing apart and was able to unstick the battery. He thinks it's been doing this because the laptop overheats and then shuts off to save itself. Which is believable enough, since I'm always on this thing.

We've started putting primer on the room, but I still haven't really picked a color, so I got some samples. It's nice here, but kind of chilly.

Oh, and my mom found out I smoke sometimes with my friends. We had a huge screaming match about it. Awesome.
