The world is a cruel, dark place where stuff sucks AND blows!

Our Xbox 360's video card died this morning. Please, a moment of silence.





Thank you.

I didn't tell Barry about the problem until after I called Tech Support. Long story short, $99 to fix. Apparently having to turn a machine in TWICE for the red ring means dick. >_< He cursed for a bit, then said that he wanted to buy another one tonight. O_O! No wonder he's always in debt. But it's his money and his console, so he can do what he wants. I've already resigned myself with the fact that I'll be paying for the wedding/honeymoon. He'll never accept my guidance when it comes to bills. Good thing I've insisted on separate bank accounts.

I think, when I have the cash (haha) I'll get the unit repaired myself so we'll have two boxes in the house. That way we can both play games instead of waiting for the tv to be freed up. It can wait though. Bills come first.

Btw, wish me luck. My interview is today at 1pm. cassandramorgan, how did yours go?

Mine went pretty good. The interviewer lady seemed to like me a lot so that's a good sign. It's not my ideal position because it's 8-5 (have to hustle my ass off to get Mo from after-school care) but since it's a doctor's office, they have good benefits and they pay 100% and the salary is in my price range. (She didn't say exactly but she said I was asking in the area what they were offering.)

I have another interview tomorrow at a Wawa, a local convenience store, so hopefully they will offer me tons of money for an overnight shift which will work out better.

Wouldn't it be better to pawn in the 360 to Gameslop take the money, then use that towards the new 360?

The 360 broke 3 times now. It will break a 4th, and probably sooner rather then later, so the $99 isn't a good investment I think.

360 is going to price drop next week, or in the next 2 weeks. Radio Shack advance flier is showing the price drop.
