Okay, as shown by my obvious lack of an incredibly space-consuming signature, I'm not on my computer right now.

My laptop decided about a week ago that it would just not work anymore.

Now, I have lost the ability to use/do any of the following:
Microsoft Word (which, of course, happened when I got into a whole writing craze, and suddenly got a lot of ideas. God has a sense of humor. I've been typing a lot on my iPod touch lately, and, therefore, I can't write a lot. Sorry ~fancylances!! )
iTunes (more accurately, the ability to sync up my iPod--I regained the ability to use iTunes by some stroke of pure luck)
the internet (hence the huge inactivity)

Unfortunately, I see no end in sight, no matter what I do.

However, I do have a wonderful new paperweight. T_T

Okay, so, hopefully, I can hitch a ride onto a computer in the near future, and type or something.

A part of me just wants to break down and buy a new one, but, unfortunately, funds are a little low, and I'll have to wait until, at the very least, next year.

In the meantime, I have offered up the immeasureably small offering that is Shattered, and, well, I hope you enjoy it enough to forgive me.

Happy Belated Halloween, you guys!

(Oh, and, in case anyone cared, I dressed up as this guy from Rejected for Halloween, and I'll have pictures to post...eventually...T_T)
