I'm at home with my parents for a few weeks and I really want to start blogging more, but we still have dialup. I really, really, really, really hate dialup. So pretty much I avoid the internet at all costs when home.
On a related note, I also need to start some hardcore job searching, lest I graduate a jobless bum. The useless internet is very much a thorn in my side here. Thus, I think I'm going to sit in a coffee shop all day tomorrow and probably piss off the people working there. At least there will be coffee!

Burn in hell flash player
So my computer has a problem with flash content. I'm not sure what it is, but for some reason my flash player likes to uninstall itself. And then it lets me reinstall and either works or doesn't, depending on how much my computer feels like messing with me apparently. So basically, whenever I try to view flash content, I get something that looks about like this:
Its really annoying.
On a more exciting note, I might try out for a musical next spring. There's a student run production of Titanic being put on in January, and its only a two week commitment. I haven't done musical theater since high school, where I did all of one show, but I loved it. So we'll see, I think it would be fun, just hope it won't make me too busy.
Only three days of classes left, then all that stands in the way of a month of relaxation is four finals. I can't wait.

Decisions are not my.....fort?
So I'm really bad at making decisions. Like the title for this blog. In fact I spent about five minutes trying all kinds of different URLs, only to choose a frustrated grunting noise. Oh well, now the decision's made, so that's that.
Actually, I'm not sure what made me decide to start writing, or if this will continue past today/next week/a month from now. I'm not really a big writer, so this is a little bit of new concept. Mostly I love reading about other people's lives (OH MY GOD WHAT A CREEPER!!!), so why can't people read about mine. That being said, here goes nothing:
While I was thinking of a title for this blog/thing/random collection of my thoughts/etc. I remembered a debate I got into a few years back about the word forté.
Dictionary.com: 1.
a strong point, as of a person; that in which one excels
Anywayyyyyy, I thought it was pronounced 4-tay, yes, just like that, but my friend KNEW that is was pronounced fort, like those big stone buildings from a really long time ago. Turns out I was right, haha I win!, but there was a fun little picture that resulted from the discussion.

And that's the story behind the title of this post. Or the whole blog? I think I just made a post solely to explain the title of the post. That's kind of counterproductive.
Wow, talk about randomness, that's me.
