Fightin’ off teh Hydra!
Seriously, sometimes it feels like when one problem is solved, when one thing is done, at least two more pop up to take its place. For example, we finally get high-speed internet; but now we need to worry about my little sister’s Wii and figuring out how to connect it to the internet, being able to go online in my room with a wireless connection, deal with potentially losing public AOL chatrooms and getting my computer to stop shutting down all of the sudden when I try to play Starcraft or Diablo II online (I say ‘we’, because these are issues that my entire family’s working on, not just me). My little sister’s playing Magic: the Gathering now, but that now also means that I need to help her with her deck, deal with her whining if she didn’t win, and try to keep her interested.
Y’know, I could’ve avoided all this bullcrap if I’d just agreed to stick with AOL and keep my little sister out of Magic: the Gathering.
To be fair, though, High-Speed and my sister and I’s shared hobby have opened up a lot of possibilities. I can download and upload things as if it were nobody’s business, now. If I fix how my computer handles the games I play, online Diablo II and Starcraft (And the overload of MMORPG’s out there) suddenly become viable options. Getting my little sister’s Wii online would open up the many possibilities of Wii channels and other such things online (And, to a -much- lesser extent, whenever I can manage to get a PS3. =( ).
And lastly, download/upload speeds mean that downloading stuff is fast as all hell. x.x For the record? Brace yourself when you watch AMV Hell 0…Crazy stuff..
