Well I did it again.

Here I go again, I hurt my back for the third time I believe this year. I just can't keep from hurting myself every time I turn around. Getting old is turning out to be a real pain lol. So off to the doctor I went yesterday to talk about my back pain. I made this appointment about a month ago, three weeks ago I think. Meanwhile while waiting for this day to come just to deal with my back I had another problem rear its ugly head and I mean that literally.

So I had two reasons to go see the doctor yesterday, and the second was worse than the first. I don't wish the second one on anybody. I am choosing to leave out a lot of gross glory details not only for your benefit but mine as well. About three to four days before this scheduled appointment I had, a cyst wanted to aggravate me or I should say make me very uncomfortable. I have had this minor small cysts in the middle of my back for better then 10 years. This hasn't been a bother for more than two or three years but he had right in the middle of school just before midterms I had had this thing dealt with.

Turns out it looked worse than it felt before the doctrine that all of the. Doctors are supposed to make you feel better, but the first part of this issue; the cyst that is was a very painful. Believe it or not the doctor cutting it open first and didn't hurt all that much, but the part that hurts the most was when he was trying to drain.

Now that I'm home I'm not having a good day, even though I am on a lot of pain medication :-) I just know that in my mind will not be able to stay together enough to go to school. And that really sucks because this is the week of midterms. Later today I'm going to have to have my mother do some medical crap to me and that will be very uncomfortable, but I must admit home care via mom is better then county hospital care in most cases :-). Oh goody, not, time for a pain pill.

Break time is over.

Well it looks like my play time is over, the next school quarter starts this week. So off I go again. This time around I have tougher classes and as most of you know by now when that happens I tend to disappear from all social circles from time to time :-)

This one is a 10 week run which does not mean that easier yet it does take a little stress off me when I have tough classes. I am determined to get the work done and get those credits added a, I don't have many more to go.

Let's see here is my schedule, Tuesdays and Thursdays. This one could work out very well, not to mention I love having Fridays off. Tuesday will be a long one for me, first class starts at 8 a.m. and the last class stops at 4 p.m. I really hate days like that, but a man's got to do what a man's got to do get the job done right? Thursday on the other hand is a half day.

Sadly I must say this is all bookwork, meaning a crap load of reading for me and we all know how much fun textbooks can be to read :-) So off to hibernate I go, as someone put it. Meaning when I have quarters like this I don't have time to play on the computer or radio. In I'll keep you informed throughout this quarter, but some of you know my blogging habits :-)

My last week of the summer.

Well as of 4:30 Pm tomorrow summer school will be over for me, so one term down and only three more terms to go. Also for some weeks now, to fill up some time I've been doing a lot of prep work for the fall and winter terms. This effort should make my last school year a little less buggy. I am really jazzed about the future, mainly because 2009/2010 WILL BE my Final year. So onward I shell go.

Jury Duty

Well I have too report for Jury Duty this week, for the first time since moving here. I'm not thrilled, but we shell see how it goes. I'm not against serving jury duty completely but I can think of happier things to do. It is useless too try getting out of it, I'll be found and forest too serve at some point in time.

Bye Bye Myspace.com

I can't remember when I did any thing with my myspace page, or why I started useing the site. So I decided this morning that it's not being used so bie bie myspace. I have enough computer and online crap to keep up with, my website and facebook will have to do.

Back to normal two.

As of six pm this evening My replacement backup hard drive is working great, with the new firewire 400 doing the job.

With the firewire upgrade all of the backup times are now completed in half the time. It has been a month and a week when I last had current backups. Not having backups freaks me out. I'm now thrilled that I can fix my PC on my own, software speaking that is.

In fact not only can windows be restored, but all of my documents and all 57 GBs of my mp3s can be as well, with or without a backup program. Having backup software is very good these days. With this as an option I have things all well in a little over three hours.

Having two backup plans is a good idea, but for years I always was horified of doing a fresh instail of windows and all the applacations, along with my data. Last Januarry I had a hard drive fail and had to start from scratch because I couldn't use my backup files. After a little nail biteing, it took a full week too fix evrything. So with a little work the last couple of days I now am ready and willing too do this once again, when I need too, and I'm shure I can do it all in just two days.

Back to normal.

For some time now I have been having a problem with my external USB backup hard drive. I really get nervous when my backup are not up to date. One day last week I was enlightened of the fact that the drive failed resonantly, that may be why it's been a little buggy lately.

So today is the day, that I got the replacement drive. later tonight all have new backups, and they wonted take five hours, because I now have a Firewire card. whether or not the card is 400 or 800 wont fatter, as long as the backup time is cut in half.
