What's everyone up to right now?

Solved my end-of-month cash crunch problem. And I set up a new trackball for my computer, as the old one wasn't registering clicks as easily. The new model isn't as good as the old in some ways, it's lighter and the ball doesn't roll as easily, but it will work. Because I can't easily use a mouse because of my hands, and I need a left-handed controller, this model or something close to it is important, so I buy extras whenever they go on sale. I'm down to my last spare, so it's time to set up some price watches. I have looked at a model from a different brand that offers a scroll ring, which this one doesn't have. I think this model is likely easier to use, but there are an increasing number of games where the absence of a scroll wheel is problematic.

I had a dispute with an Ebay seller about returning a defective item, but I was never notified of the dispute by Ebay. So a few days ago, I contacted Ebay by phone to find out if I had any exposure to liability if the case was still pending and they decided in favor of the seller. They said that the case was closed and that I didn't have anything to worry about, but I know how sometimes service reps can give bad information, so I wanted to try again with a different rep to confirm that information. I couldn't find where I had requested a call back before, so I ended up chatting with an automated bot. The automated bot informed me that the case was decided in my favor, so not only do I not have any monetary exposure, I'm not gonna get my account dinged as a result of the seller's dispute. Woot! We be cooking with gas now!

I took trazodone to help me sleep for three days, but last night I slept without it. So long, suckers! j/k

I had an abnormal cancer screening awhile back, I've been sweating the retest. Results came, there's no need to do a biopsy. Whew.

Watching the news.  Aside from taking some time to masturbate, I haven't had a chance to relax for 8 hours.

Good news, CD.

Making my way through Jean Luc Godard's oeuvre

Finished upgrading the heatsink and CPU on one motherboard. At the end it resisted my entreaties for it to work. It took about a dozen times of watching it do nothing much but spin the fan when I pushed the power button, I finally got it to work. I was sure that I could hear muted, tiny laughter throughout that trying time.

Fuck I hate nurses. They treat you like you should be at their disposal whenever they feel like showing up. Usually they don't bother to call ahead and just call 30 minutes before they can see you. Today's nurse did schedule the night before, but then didn't bother to show up until 45 minutes after she was scheduled and didn't bother to call to advise me that she would be late. And they're all like that. If you don't see them regularly, they realize they're not accountable for their behavior and so they just treat everybody like shit.
