the internet... > __ < ##!!
My dad is such a know nothing when it comes to networking... -_-; (then again, so am I... -_-;;)
Yesterday, I found out that my internet sucked for some reason... I was getting kicked off about every 5 minutes... (NOOO! MY DOWNLOADS!! TT-TT) I couldn't even get a simple Flash plug-in...

It turns out, as I found out today, that my dad reset the security on the server... and I was leeching the DSL connection from across the street...

5% signal strength (oh - yeah)

When the Tough Get Going

I know what you're thinking...
(What's up with that title?!)
Well, its close to midnight, so I don't really care... As far as where I was going earlier today:

I forgot to get something for lunch today, so I walked to the West End (Historic Downtown Dallas) for something to eat. I always end up going by the old marketplace building that is temporarily in permanent shutdown mode (stupid four/five floor malls...), and I saw a sushi place - sushi zone/explosion/*fist in the face*.

I think to myself:
Reason - "Hey, I've never had sushi before..."
Inner cheapskate - "What if it's too expensive?"
Reason - "Hey, no problem with spending a little money if it comes to that..."

So, I sit down at the bar and ask for a menu. I have no idea what I'm looking at, so I ask the guy what he recommends. I'm not sure what he said, but I mistook what he said to be 'California roll'. I also order a Coca-cola. I'm sure this guy was thinking "que estupido!" thats spanish for "what a baka!" (Not an Asian face in the restaurant).

reason: "I should have ordered a b33r..."

Anyways, I'm not sure if the guy at the bar had problems with people watching him work, but I sat there at the bar silently refusing to take a seat at a table. The food was beautiful! I tried the first one without anything on it - Delicious @_@!
I put some of this pink stuff that I thought was salmon at first on top of the next one (it turned out to be ginger) - MORE delicious @___@!

The plate was empty soon after.

I feel bad though, the guy mistook me ordering the thing he recommended and made it for me - it was beautiful but I couldn't afford it. I left a hefty tip for that meal (cheapskate + hefty tip = $2).

Krusty is Lazy

-Yep, I'm lazy. You see that this isn't my newest installment of "Ninja Kai" - I still can't be sure anyone cares... -_-;
-I nearly fell asleep at work today although I've done more work than I should have been able to with my level of knowledge(I'm not complaining - I'm only lazy in some other aspects, like work I don't have to do...and homework)
-I haven't installed my printer//scanner even though I have the driver...
-I haven't p-shopped any drawings because of above laziness

Comments on the comments

A-zak: so sorry I didn't get to your site yesterday, er day before...
Solemn: you're back! yippee! I've been a little worried honestly... 0_o; This internet is apparently not so good as I thought though...
(1. good idea... *needs to find a reference* ;2. um, good think you're not sure... neither am I; 3. *goes to buy more cookies* < -- no spine)

Questions:

1) Do you have "high-speed" internet? Do you still lose your connection for hours at a time?
2) Have you ever read Chibi Vampire?

Notes/rant on the new post

I wanted to yell and scream last night/this morning when our internet connection went out. I had finally got a good connection and the stupid thing goes out on me. I was sitting here writing my blog when out of nowhere I stop receiving IMs and I can't send them either... does the service provider not know that midnight is a high-traffic time of day?

Gah, anyways - I've gotta get to work now, so everyone enjoy your day and I'll be back tonight/this morning - whichever.
