Cripes, I'd forgotten the worst part of deep-frying. It's not the mess. It's not the fact that the food clogs your arteries. It's the SMELL that lingers in your house for days afterward. I even smelled it on my clothes hanging in the closet today. I'm probably going to walk into work tomorrow to questions of "Holy shit, Heller, what're you doing, moonlighting at a greasy spoon? You smell like a dead buffalo's ass."

OK, so most of the people I work with don't usually talk that way. But they just might tomorrow.

LiveJournal is completely screwed these days. Completely. And they want me to send 'em another five bucks to renew my paid account. And of course I probably will. *twitch*

Went to Eliza's house tonight to help her fix her computer. We ate well, laughed a lot, and somehow managed to actually get the computer running again--without even having to wipe the hard drive! Oh, and she lent me a part for my costume that's gonna work very well. Excellent.

That reminds me when I'd eat at cheap pizza joints. I could smell the grease on my skin. Oof.

Man, the worst is working in fast food for eight hours and then going home and sitting on the couch before you take a shower and the freaking dog gets all over you because you smell like food. Or food-like substances, anyway.

Speaking of computers, what would cause the CPU to run at 100% when the drive is "idle"?

Hmmmmm, I don't really know. If you're using XP, you can hit ctrl-alt-del to get the task manager, hit the processes tab, and see what programs are using the CPU, so that might be a start...

There's something called svchost.exe, but I don't really know what that does.

ROFL "Dead buffalo's ass"??? That's almost as good as "rotting moose carcass"...
