Otherwise Known As: Why I loathe AOL

I actually wrote a longish entry last week, both about my word count and about a particular friend of mine who's on my AOL blocked list now for his consistant lack of good spelling, anything remotely resembling grammar and absolute derth of punctuation. (Among other sins, he seems to believe that "not" is an optional word and when he says "i could find a paring spce" or "my romate and i are geting along" I should be able to figure out that he couldn't find a space and his roomate and he are fighting all the time.)

In any case, I opened AIM to check what the actual commands were to put someone on your blocked list, AIM hijacked my browser and I lost my wonderfully sarcastic blog entry about grammar.

So, I've been so pissed about this (and some other things that really aren't worth getting into) that I slammed my browser shut and went off to sulk in Warcraft, where I've been for the last almost week.

Week before Last's Word Count: 6,712

Last Week's Word Count (before I got pissed off with the universe): 3,154

So, I'm still on track, provided I can stop being pissed off enough to do some writing this week.

(As a further note to people with sig others: If you're feeling neglected by your spouse/girlfriend/boyfriend/whathaveyou, waking them up - after they've stated that they're really tired - an hour after they've gone to bed to say you're feeling neglected is Not a Good Plan. Really. It's not.)
