viciously circular

Rant list time! Today's rant list is a marvel of elegance and simplicity.

1. Windows. Windows XP. Windows XP which, despite being installed perfectly legally from a legit copy with the right million-digit code and all, has effectively locked me out of my dad's computer by requiring to be activated before it will let me into Windows. Activation requires an internet connection. I can only connect to the internet once I'm in Windows, which I can't do because Windows isn't activated. Because it needs the internet. Which it can't have. See this head banging against a brick wall? that's me, that is. That's my girlfriend.
2. Parcelforce. No idea what they've done lately, but I promised Scroob.

Things not on my rant list:

1. my mother;
2. my friends.

Y'all are wonderful and are keeping me sane.

Hee! "Program arsenic" is truly perfect.

I failed utterly on the Milo bar re-supply front, I'm afraid - did my usual and forgot to look for them until just before my mother left, and then of course none of the shops had a supply. It'll have to be December, I'm afraid.
