A COMPUTER CRISIS!

YES I'M POSTING AGAIN.
I just thought I'd update you on the monitor-colour-wonkiness. You see, today the screen started to go red in the bottom corner, expanding upwards, and boy does it make your eyes hurt trying to read it. And then at lunchtime, all of a sudden the screen went dark, dark, dark grey! Just so I could make out a bit of my wallpaper, and my G!Talk box. Sort of. When I turned the screen it would show up the yellow-tinged colour for about a second, then flip to dark-dark-grey. Couldn't see a THING, so I had to turn the computer off by guessing where the shutdown button was (FUN XD) and then I charged down to work at the end of the day and dragged mum with me to Comet to buy a new screen. It's all black and shiny, unlike my old one (did you know it said on the back it was produced in 2003?) and everything's so WHITE NOW!
So Cyn, you can stop asking where I've been; I'VE BEEN STRANDED!
On the plus side, I sat and watched TWSSG on my DVD player and got through almost five episodes :D
