Well, bye Lupus. Nice knowing you. =P I guess you either get your computer fixed or buy a new one or... Never talk on Skype again.

Very funny General. -.- (I mean it, Skype is the primary way I've chatted with you pups and the home PC was the most efficient and easily accessible way to use Skype)
I might try resetting the password but last time I tried that Skype token stuff, (just to reset a password), it didnt work, claiming the code was obsolete or some crap.
If I cant use the Home PC to chat with you pus, I might as well while at home just play on my 360 and watch YouTube through it while using my iPod to access Sparky's, deviantart, furaffinity, and tumblr. Keep that in mind before you make anymore jokes about this, and also keep in mind this PC problem sh!t started just shortly after I realized what I REALLY wanted in life was NOT to go to Disney World but just to be in the presence of non-relative folks I can trust and truly count as friends.

I wonder where you are, Lupus. o.o
You try tking your Computer to a shp, or try a Scan on it. Also, For IM, It is possible it can be a case of the Share File.
I think I may know how to fx it. Wish me to PM you on how, Lupus? ;3

Well, I can no longer use Skype at home because, (surely due to whatever sh!t my mom and brother did to it last night, even they'll ALWAYS blame me for its sudden inefficiency), it can't even bring up Google Chrome anymore and overall The Whole Dang is FAR slower than it's ever been. Meaning NO MORE SKYPE. (Especially since the log in menu it now gives me require my Skype name and Skype password the latter of which I forgot, rather than my Microsoft account info. -.- ) Not entirely sure what happened to the laptop without further detail as to what your family did, but yeah I can empathize about everything automatically being your fault even if you didnt mess with it :/ Been a while since I've used a desktop, but if you have Windows what you need to do is go to the Control Panel (start button, on the right it says control panel) and then in the action panel it gives the option for reviewing the computer's status, then at the bottom if you have a administrator account (if you only have one for everybody then it should be admin, if not have your mom help out) there is the option to defragment your harddrive. try that and it might speed things up a little, as for Skype once you get that fixed as far as password and stuff goes next time you sign in click the little "Sign me in when Skype starts" box, and make sure that the password is easy to remember incase it kicks you out and removes the password (it does to me sometimes) If al that doesnt work then I cant really play computer doctor without further info, and its best to see a expert anyway

The school laptop is fine, but I can only use it for online purposes at school in short. Though, for some reason, regarding the home PC, when I tried it at around 3:10pm or so yesterday, it was being VERY slow, (getting to the log-in menu for the PC was fairly easy but doing anything on the desktop, (such as simply starting up a program), was slower than ever), BUT when my mom got on the PC later that day, (at like around 10pm since she works from like 9-9 on Tuesday-Thursday if I'm correct), she said it was being slow but she was on Google Chrome and it was working just fine, (heck I even opened up Skype but didn't bother signing in and the Skype log-in window came up, with its normal, Microsoft Account sign-in option).
Not sure if it's the time at which I try getting on, or somehow I have even a shorter patience for the PC than my mom does….for me.

Lots of people on this board seem to be having major computer issue. First Flo, and now Lupus.

I think I'm gonna talk about this on my life thread since there isn't exactly one for dreams overall, (as in non-TV/movie-based dreams), and I know the translation of dreams is practically a subjective manner/concept but I'm honestly wondering a fearing a little as to what this dream, (and at the last second or so scare/nightmare), means. I don't remember much of it but all I recall is that at one point this woman, (certainly not anyone I know, especially my mom), was sort of threatening a male figure I perhaps knew, (could've been from a show/film or url in which case maybe my dad I don't know), with a pistol to the head, I was hiding behind a piece of furniture not far away, I think with a pistol myself maybe or something throwable, (again I don't know/recall). Anyway, after I peek my head up a little once or twice, the woman is aware of my presence and shoots at me perhaps while most of my body is exposed but for some reason…..(in Max Payne or video game terms the excuse would be bullet-time ), I was able to evade the bullets, simply by adjusting my bodily position, (bend, lean/tilt, etc.), after which I try attacking her mainly with throwable objects, (not like frags or so on), but I miss every time. (I'm not exactly accurate when I'm trying to focus on strength when it comes to sports). I'm at last close to her, (I guess she had no ammo after that one clip), and I grab a…porcelain or fine-china-like object, (a teapot or teacup, maybe a plate), and smash it on her head. Here's where it becomes a VERY strange dream and a bit of a nightmare, (since I at times fear my own anger eventually exploding upon humans or my pets). When I smashed it on her head, she certainly died BUT practically upon impact, the fine china shattered, BUT…..so did her, both into pieces; they just broke like glass. It was obviously that sight that perhaps awoke me from my slumber after a second or so her shattering like stone/ice and just falling, along with my fear of murdering someone because I at last blew my top COMPLETELY. Any ideas what the hell that Dream could mean if anything, (least that last portion? I've seen Simple Plan's music video "Untitled", (otherwise known as "How Could this Happen to Me?"), in which a drunk driver, (the narrator), ruins a whole family's life just by getting in a car accident with a young female driver that kills her, so I'm sure the shattering could refer to my fear of killing just in a fit of rage/fury rather than punishment, and/or my regret should I kill directly due to the damage that could follow to both me and those connected to the killer or victim.

Well, today was the 3rd and final performance of my Acting 1 class' one-act place about how the Internet is such a distraction. We weren't the ones who wrote the original script, (but the playwright himself was present tonight, {he's a fairly young adult named Ian McWethy if I may be honest}), BUT during the process of making the play we were allowed to edit, such as add in scenes. I did at least half if not most of the writing for this scene about Netflix, (involving of course references to shows/films available on it, such as Doctor Who, Forrest Gump, MLP:FIM, Walking Dead, Breaking Bad, and Pretty Little Liars but I only knew info on the first 4, {MLP was simply represented by a stereotypical, collecting Brony}). The show was a HUGE success, (breaking even with the payment necessary for the show on the FIRST NIGHT, $250), and TONS of laughter was present, (especially during Netflix cause Gump). I honestly enjoyed both writing the Netflix scene, (not alone of course or else BB and PLL wouldn't be involved), and also acting, (but rather than be in my written scene, I ended up being a personified role of the darker side of Bad Snapchat, {not physically representing it, just telling about it in short; my character was more evil/bad or pessimistic in short}), in it. Both my teacher and the playwright himself said that I should get to work on writing stuff, (even a skit/script based on this one idea I mentioned briefly before the show that is a slight satire on GAMING), which I kinda did shortly after getting home, least thinking up the idea...and I already came up with the general idea and emailed my teacher. In short, it's not gonna be about the addiction/distraction of gaming but more a 'history' on it, from as far back as the hay-day of arcade, (DK, Pac-Man, Pinball, "MORTAL KOMBAAAAAT" , etc.), to now, and perhaps what I call a TRON-based prediction of gaming's future, with plenty of jokes, teasers, and references to the timeline, such as details to VERY bad games, *eyes ET*, or bad...innovations, *holds up my right arm revealing the PowerGlove* or so on, (of course involving that cliche "The cake is a lie" meme). Oh and there will be two narrators throughout the play so as to make the transitions easier and so the play has a plot of sorts. While we may not be able to perform it this school year, it would be nice to complete it before my 2 years of college at a trade school, (starting this August), are finished cause I am ANXIOUS to discuss it in class and with the original playwright of the Internet play.

You and bab are so lucky you get to do acting for a living! Too bad I'm too busy with my life to commit the time to such.

I haven't been doing acting for a living, (not one of my performances were a paying job, they were volunteer work or classwork, (such as this one). I don't know of any theaters in this county at least that have acting/stage-performance as a paying opportunity, (far as I know the closest two are in the neighboring county to the East, and they're good theaters, {especially Sight and Sound}
Though I will say this, it's more likely I'll be acting for a living than writing for a living, (as in poetry or fictional writing in general). But I'll mainly be aiming for an occupation/profession in the zoological, (animal science), field such as vet, zoo/aquarium worker, etc as my prime source of income or paying job with perhaps acting as a side occupation.

With my case, it's more a Hobby than a Living, Belchic! I actually need to py to Perform in the Group.
You try looking some Performing Groups, where you are, Belchic?
Maybe, you can try writing for Performance, Lupus? Think that may work? ;3
