Sherrybaby

You know what sucks? I recently got Sherrybaby from Netflix and watched pretty much the whole movie. Got to the last oh, probably 10 minutes or so, and it starts skipping. I've wiped and wiped and wiped the stupid thing and it won't work. Very rarely do I have trouble with movies from Netflix and it just so happens that it does it to me on this one. Figures, because I want to know what happened, but at teh same time, I didn't like it enough to get it again.

So I spent time setting things upstairs to try it on the computer - the old computer. Our new one doesn't have a dvd player, but two of our old ones do. Actually, three old ones do. So I have three more to try it on and hopefully I'll get it working on one of them.

While I was at it, I tried to set up my wireless router so I could access the internet from the other computer. For some reason I can't update this computer to allow Netflix to let me watch stuff on the computer. I figured I'd try on one of the other computers. But, I couldn't get it to work. I have no idea where the cd rom is for the blasted thing - it's already installed on the computer so it should work! Hell, I hook up the router and the internet doesn't work on this computer.

Ah, well. I suppose if I really wanted to I could move the dsl modem when I want to watch something. I just might. Though, it'd be nice to have a second computer online that way the boys could play games online at the same time. Maybe I'll find the cd rom and try again.

Also today I tried to set up a new clothes line only to find that a) it was too short (so good thing I bought two - so I tied them together) and b) it broke anyway. And I was only hanging up my diapers, so it wasn't like it was a very heavy load.

I really.. really despise the pulley system for clothes line. I'd much.. much rather have a set of freaking poles. If we buy this house, that's one of the things I want done. Man, the list of things I would want done to this house is freaking long. But being near the river is nice. And I actually have a friend next door.

I know, me, a friend!? Who knew!
