I AM CURSED!!! Maybe this will cheer me up...

Hey everyone! Yes, I AM CURSED!!! My DVD drive crashed on my computer, so I sent it to Geek Squad. Well, after a diagnostic, there was nothing wrong with the hardware, BUT there were about 100 or so infections, mostly from LimeWire.(I WILL CURSE LIMEWIRE UNTIL THE DAY I DIE!!!) So I waited 10 days for the restore disks, then sent it back to get a complete restore done. Get it back home and turn it on, and it doesn't turn on. So it's back to Geek Squad, and my computer is now on its way to service, which means another 2-3 WEEKS WITHOUT A COMPUTER!!! Yes, THIS SUCKS!!! I am writing this now on my oldest's computer, and we won't go there about what I've gone through to use it...

Anyway, I got this from Magda on facebook. I will say this, if this does come to fruition, I will pay the extra to get the premium channel package just for this...


"Hi everyone!

I meant to send this around sooner, but it didn't happen...

There is a petition going around to grow support for either HBO or Showtime in the USA to start production of an animated Firefly series happening - this would give Joss and hit team the opportunity to grow story lines and give us more of our BDHs!!

Follow the link here: http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/revivefirefly

Lets take one more step towards what the 76th aim to do (appart from misbehave!) Sign and ask your friends to do the same!

Thanks everyone! I know I can count on you! We never leave a man behind!

Magda/Meredith x x x"

So you can still find me on Yahoo Messenger--through my BlackBerry--and at my email, goysu@yahoo.com.

I am a TERRIBLE blogger! (Or CSTS '09 in Nashville)

Alright, people, I know, I know. I'm a terrible blogger. I love to write, have loved to write since junior high. But for some ungodly reason I can't keep a journal. So with the "blog" being the new journal, well...you see where this is going.

But I will not dwell on the fact I am a terrible blogger. I came here to give news of another Can't Stop the Serenity event, this time in Nashville, Tennessee. The "Whedonites United" have planned a weekend of shiny goodness, which they have named WhedonFest, for August 7-9, 2009. If you're in the Nashville area, I highly recommend checking this out. Check it out at http://www.whedonitesunited.com/id16.html.

The schedule and prices for the festivities are on the website, but here are the highlights... a Dr. Horrible screening, along with other Whedon projects; a silent auction, a couple of shindigs, food, and--of course--the Serenity screening. And it's all for a good cause, Equality Now, along with other worthy charities.

So check this out if you're in the area. Or if you're not, go to http://www.cantstoptheserenity.com for the screening in your area. Me personally, I am planning to go to the Charlotte, NC screening on June 27...if I have the cashy money for it.
