osarabaLong time, no update. Of course, I'm sure this is no big surprise to anyone who's actually reading this. I have been meaning to, but this time I have a somewhat valid excuse! My computer crashed last week! (I'm not excited by this, despite the use of exclamation points.) I was unable to bring it anywhere to get it fixed until today, however. And since they have some backlog, they said it was going to be at least a week before it's done. I don't really even know what the real problem is, but it requires reinstallation of the operating system. That means a potential loss of 60gb-worth of stuff! So, what I decided was to get a data transfer done to an external harddrive (I bought a 160gb hd for $130, on sale!) and then the reinstallation of the OS. Liz and I had been meaning to get an external hd for a long time, for back-up & storage purposes, but we never got around to it. Ha ha. Now look what happened. We obviously should have done it a long time ago; then I wouldn't have had to lose many downloaded programs (because they only transfer "files, folders, music, and pictures"). They suck. Well, at least I have all my other stuff, if not those programs. Most of which I'll be able to find and re-download anyway, but the annoyance~!
Anyway, the other news is that I cut my hair 'cause my UN job ended last week!!! I'm so happy. I will miss the extra money, of course, which is what is financing my trip to Japan. But I was dying without being able to cut & dye my hair (no pun intended, I assure you). I was really beginning to feel pretty disgusting about how I looked and... I guess I didn't really realize until now how that can really depress your spirits.
So yes, I got a nice new haircut! It's short on my right side (just below the top of the ear), and gets longer in a gradual slant all the way around to my left side where it's about two inches past my chin. So happy! Now I just have to bleach and dye it and I will feel renewed and delicious! I will, of course, post pics just as soon as (1) Liz is back home from Italy (Sunday evening) and I can use the camera again, and (2) the computer is back in my house and I can upload the pics. ^^;
Also! A remixed version of Buck-Tick's song ドレス is being used as the opening to a new anime called BLOOD TRINITY! I can't wait to hear the remix, and to see the anime when it starts coming out subbed -- it's about vampires, too! (As in, the only other anime B-T did an OP song for was Mayonaka Tantei Nightwalker, which was a vampire anime, also. Tee hee. Looks like they've got their little obsession too! It makes me very happy that they like vampires, one of those things that I love myself. =D I'm a bit disappointed that it isn't a new song, which I was led to believe when Angelica was telling me about it, but I discovered otherwise. ::sigh:: However, I am looking forward to hearing the new remix.
