I got enough cards done for four of my stories so that I may be able to mock up a one-page summary of each story's plot for my own use.

Of course I'm trying to do that on a Wednesday night with a Top Chef marathon and a new episode, so you can imagine how well getting them done is working. *sigh*

Quick, if any of you see me going anywhere near one of those websites where they're all, "Take twenty surveys and pay five bucks each for these forty offers and we'll send you a laptop! Maybe!", steer me towards the link to this laptop. I can't afford to buy it, but by God, I can afford to whimper and pet the screen happily.
(Jesus, I feel like my best friend who wanted to buy an iPod and when I asked her which one she said, "... I want the pink one.")
In related news my father has had my laptop in his possession for the past week and a half and only just tried taking the back off to see what this supposed spill damage looks like. I say "tried" because he gave up when he couldn't figure out why it wouldn't come off even though he's taken off most of the screws. Um, maybe take off some more of them? I don't have it in front of me, but that was my first thought.
Maybe when I go to get it tomorrow he'll actually give me the little screwdriver he didn't want to hand over to me in the first place. Not because he thought I'd lose it but because he thought I'd break a laptop that was already broken to begin with. Seriously, at this point I've just fucking given up. Two months of hassle do not make a happy Jennifer.
