Damn Technology!

In the last ten minutes I have been foiled by technology not once but twice.

First I try to sit down at the Nintendo for a round of Tales of Symphonia. This is the RPG I made reference to in an earlier post. I opened a beer, got my pillows comfy, and prepared to enter the mines and find the key crest that could save Presae. But upon turning on the Nintendo, the message that greeted my eyes sent horrors through my soul. The memory card is corrupted. What the fuck does that mean? Did I let it rent porno films or watch Saw II? Did I buy it beer and cigs? Did I drop the sumbitch? I didn't do a thing. The only part of the Nintendo I ever touch is the power button, but somehow in the last couple days my memory card got corrupted! So not only is the progress I've made into Symphonia gone, but all the dedicated hours of Mario, Zelda, and whatever else used to rest on that card is also fucked. Well, needless to say, I am giving up on the game. My frustration will not allow me to sit down and play through the first half of the game again.

So I got up and decided to sit down at the computer to do some writing on my long-term rock history research project. And every time I open a web page, Firefox crashes. Jesus! I'll be surprised if this post makes it. It just isn't my day. I think I'm gonna read a book or something. Just watch, all the pages will probably catch fire.
