GUYS. I have discovered that I have mutant powers. My powers are kinda like Kevin's, except instead of killing anything organic, I kill technology. True story.

My laptop has suddenly decided that it doesn't want to turn on...at all. Now, this could be explained by the fact that it's almost four years old, but there's a story behind the story! I'm only using this old laptop because about two weeks ago I somehow deleted the entire operating system off of my six-month-old netbook. Yeah, I have no idea how I did that, either. I'm talented that way. I also just recently had to replace my iPod because it wouldn't play music and my GPS tries to send me to Tampa, Kansas instead of Tampa, Florida, in addition to seeing roads where there are none.

Since I don't have a THIRD computer I can use as a backup (to the backup), I have to rely on the computer labs on campus. I live off campus, so this will slow down my posting by a lot- but not stop it entirely, because the internet is crucial to my life right about now. I've only got one character (luckily?), so it shouldn't mess anyone up too bad in terms of plots...I think. Hopefully I can get this resolved soon. D:

	Sorry to hear Teresa, I hate that stress of having technological/computer problems. I hope it works out soon! If your mutation is acting up, you might want to invest in a good pair of gloves! :( ! (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Plastic crumbles under my touch! Samma was there, she can verify. (Okay, so it was just cracked a little, but I AM ALLOWED TO BE DRAMATIC.) I feel like this would actually be a very useful mutation if I wasn't a college student dependent on computers for assignments. Think of all the damage I could do! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I would verify that wasn't dramatic at all. TOTALLY CRUMBLED RIGHT UNDER YOUR TOUCH. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Teresa, you should just give up on college life and become a full time criminal. You think it could make you any money?! "THE OPERA GLOVES ARE COMING OFF!" touches government super computer? IDK Samma, she needs a codename. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	LOTS OF MONEY. aife_screams 2010-06-04 03:43 pm UTC (link)
	"One million dollars or this big shiny computer gets it!" I'd be a really cheap criminal, I think. One million dollars feels like a bargain for the safety of government secrets. I'd also probably get caught because I am not at all sneaky and would leave a trail of computer bits in my wake. A codename probably wouldn't help me be a better criminal XD (Reply to this) (Parent)
