    So. Where to start...

    I guess I'll go back 3 months ago.

    I had several alarm clocks sitting around to make sure I wake up when I'm supposed to since I have to rise early but I'm not a morning person. The 3 I had were all working fine. First one died. It just smoked one day (literally!) and that was it. Second one worked for 3 weeks more then it just up and died. No display or nothing. Just dead. Third one still works partially. Everything functions minus the alarm sound function. Alarm turns on, radio works but it won't make any noise for alarm sound or turn radio on. So now I use my 3DS with the Mario clock hooked to a set of hacked together amplified speakers from leftover junk. Been using that for around 1.5 months now.

    So next problem. Heater and hot water heater. They both go out at the most random of times. Easy enough to re-light and re-activate but still annoying. Then there was the toilet. God was that a royal pain. finally had to completely rebuild it with new seals, float, flapper, and all that. Then there was my Xbox project. You should know all the details about that from my thread on it. I won't even get into the other problems with the outfit I'm on. Good lord are they a pain in my ass...

    So you think that's it? FUCK NO!! My latest issue is with my PC OF ALL GODDAMNED THINGS!!! It is still fine and all. It's my UPS. Still have power to the plugs. Battery setup is perfect. It just won't activate battery power when mains fail now. I've checked everything and still at a loss. Says I have wiring fault when I know there isn't one. I had checked that all out when I put it together to be sure it was all proper. So now I have to go get a new system since we have the most random of power failures out here. Gonna have to get an endurance setup since the power can sometimes be out for over 24 hours.

    Life can really fuck you over at times. And this doesn't include all the other little problems I deal with almost daily.

    Care to share your "constant bad luck fucked me over" stories?

    Oh, and don't get me stared on the whole screwy Windows 7 OS problems thing. GOD that is a bitch. At least I have Ultimate 64 bit to make certain things easier on both desktop and laptop...
