So... I get home from an awesome con, unpack the important stuff, get some water, and generally prepare to unwind online for a while before sleep. I sit down, turn my computer on...

-- and something BLOWS OUT in Schala's back, complete with sparks and a loud fizzling noise. Following this is a smell of burnt plastic and the complete inability to turn Schala back on.

Sooooo, borrowing my mom's laptop for a while. O_O;;;;

Man, and I was hoping to upload my photos and everything. Nothing looks fried in Schala's innards, so it was probably just her power supply deciding to have a spectacular Fourth of July failure. We won't know until tomorrow night when Dad can get a new power supply in.

Meh. I needed sleep anyway.

o_________o Welcome back?

Hopefully it's just the power stuff, meep. o___o

[fuyu]

Thanks. o____o

I hope so toooooo. I have great affection for my computer and I am very attached to my data.

There must be something in the air. I got back from a great time at the con only to have my usually very docile laptop randomly start giving me trouble -- though not as bad as you seem to have been hit. Sympathy!

[fuyu]

Ick, hope your laptop sorts itself out/has sorted itself out. And thank you!

(I wonder if I met you at the con? There were so many Kairis I have no idea...)

[sister-coyote.livejournal.com]

It's possible. :D

There were a lot of Kairis. (And they/we stood out -- pink really stands out amongst a sea of black, grey, and blood-red.)

[fuyu]

Srsly. I kept seeing flashes of pink and going "oh, look, another Kairi" to myself. XD

You got any pictures of yourself as Kairi? I'd know then if I recognized you at all. XD

[sister-coyote.livejournal.com]

'Fraid not -- I didn't think to take pictures of myself, heh. Maybe my friends do....

[abyssus-abyssum.livejournal.com]

Maybe your computer was just so happy to have you back it exploded? O_O

Well, welcome back none the less!

[fuyu]

Possibly? O_o;;;

Thanks! :3

YOU MUST TELL ME ALL ABOUT THE CON WHEN YOU GET BACK.

And yikes. D: HOPEFULLY IT'S NOTHING MAJOR.

[fuyu]

OH I WILL. I WILL. BELIEVE YOU ME.

hzgyh srsly. D: Schalaaaa.

...now that was one hell of a display O_o;; Maybe someone was cleaning your room and some water got into the power supply?

The other day my mother's church goer friends decided to bless our house, so they went around all rooms praying and spraying holy water around. That no holy water dropped into our open CPU was a blessing all on its own.

[fuyu]

My computer's out in the main room, though, and we don't actually clean very often. XD;; But I haven't dusted Schala out since... um... I got her, so that might have been a factor.

[elanor-pam.livejournal.com]

..eee. Probably. XD;

I hear a vacuum cleaner that blows two ways can make dusting a comp an almost instantaneous job. Unfortunately I've yet to see a single two-way vacuum cleaner in my life (it's like no one in my city is interested in buying them, so the stores don't bother... O_o).

[fuyu]

Yeah. XD;; Oops. Poor Schala. ;_;

Awww. Well, a can of compressed air will do it pretty well, so...

[clarify.livejournal.com]

:O Glad to hear the con was fun. I at first thought Schala was a cat or something, and was momentarily horrified. X_x; Hopefully your computer will be okay!

[fuyu]

It was, indeed, a rockin' con. :D I got TOYS.

Oh yikes, no. No, Schala's a computer (with a matching iPod named Janus). XD I hope she'll be okay too!

[assassins-inc.livejournal.com]

It was great to see you again!

[fuyu]

Likewise! Too bad I didn't run into you guys more often.

I think I saw you in the Hilton lobby once, but it was in the morning and my brain wasn't entirely on yet, so I just kind of stood there staring and thinking "Is that Jacqueline? That looks like Jacqueline, but I don't know! And I don't wanna make an ass of myself if I'm wrong!" and eventually I wandered off. XD

You guys were seriously AWESOME, though. Congratulations on the awards, you totally earned them. :D

[anriko.livejournal.com]

Holy SHIT, hon. o_O

By the by - I actually had the rest of what I owed you, but you were gone. 8D;; I figure I'll just paypal the other 25 to you later, once I'm sure a couple checks've cleared. ^^;

[fuyu]

Srsly. It was special. (And I'm still waiting on the power supply.)

Aww. XD Yeah, I kinda vanished like neenja. I figured you'd end up paypalling it, so no worries. (Too bad you didn't find me again before I left. XD I was pretty much parked in the same spot the whole time, trying to nap on my backpack with Ansem in front of me holding up a sign telling people to sssh. XD)

How are you enjoying the pocketwatch? 8D

[anriko.livejournal.com]

It sure sounds special o_o

XD Yeah. I saw that, that was hilarious. Was tempted to leave you a note on the sign but didn't. Alas and woe. XD

X3 Shiny. I dunno if I'll actually be able to wear the necklace, so I may wind up eBaying it. (Damn metal allergies)

[fuyu]

Well, I'm typing this on Schala now, so all systems are go. :D

Awww. XD You should've taken a picture or something.

Hee. XD And aww, too bad. Well, hey, money = teh good, so. XD

[anriko.livejournal.com]

Wanted to, but I already burnt through my camera and then some XD

Yeah, if I can get fifteen for it I'll be content. I have the watch, that's all I care about X3
