In The Future When All's Well


It has been a shit day. I still have the flu symptoms : chronic headaches when I even think about standing up, near incapacity when I think about moving, a throat that feels as if I have been gargling acid, and my back feels broken. I feel better - but that is still akin to feeling run over by a truck as opposed to being run over by a fleet of trucks.

After 3 weeks prodding and poking, I finally finished rebuilding my hard drives. Next thing I do when I get a chance is to sort out some replacement slave drives so I can back up once and be done with it once and for all.

In the meantime, it appears my Ebay account was hijacked. I got it back, but sadly it took 24 hours and a pain-in-the-bum conversation with a very nice person at Ebay. Since my Ebay account was linked to my PayPal account, my first step was go into PayPal and change all my passwords. Then to go to Ebay to change the password to something else. Unfortunately, at the same time - 6.36pm, fact fans - something seized, hijacked, or hacked my Hotmail account and also changed my password as part of what looks like a co-ordinated attack on my online identity. I can try to reset the account, but unfortunately my Secret Question is now in fucking Japanese, or Chinese, or something, and that is a little concerning. I am in furious and regular contact with Microshit's Support Desk, but they are about as much use as a glass hammer at the moment.

Nonetheless, the 500GB Hard Drive is finally finished and fully backed up. I lost some naked women. Not the end of any world. I still feel alternately sweating and boiling and freezing and goospimply. And I probably have to work tommorow. What a waste. The weekend was spent feeling shite.
