What happened to you today :)

[Tigerlilly]

My boyfriends computer has blue screen of death, he's tried starting it in safe mode.. still happens, tried reinstalling operating system, still happens.. He can't even get to log on.
Anyone know what to do ?

[Flutter]

I don't know. If my boyfriend weren't insanely busy I'd ask him to help you. That's pretty much his job.

[Tigerlilly]

No problem It's annoying because we live so far apart and the computer is like our way of talking.. and he's off college and work for 2 weeks & it breaks the first day.
Urgh.
Anyway, here's a picture of my shrimp/snail pile on. Thought it was funny lol.

My snails arrived with weird white shells like that, anyone know how to fix it? they're ramshorn, all the tiny babies are brown like they're suppose to be.

[CarmenH]

I think the white shells are from soft acidic water and/or calcium deficiencies. They aren't reparable, but the babies should be fine if you're careful...

[Tigerlilly]

Ah good, it's only a few with it anyway, the babies and a few large ones are ok ^_^

I HATE verizon. >:[ I just went in to get a new phone. The only thing I asked of them was a phone I could use as an MP3 player. The stupid lady assured me about a million times that this phone would do it. Guess what. it doesn't. And if I want to exchange it for a different one they'll charge me $35 restocking fee, which is more than I paid for the phone.

Yah. Some cell phone companies are rip-offs. My sister has AT&T and her bill is like $100 when mine is $60 at U.S. Cellular and we have almost the same plan (I have unlimited texts, and she doesn't)

[Flutter]

I just got a new cell phone a few days ago. I went with Telus as they had the best deal. I don't have much extra money so my plan is $30Cdn per month (got the cheapest one I could find). I couldn't imagine spending $60 o $100. Also, they let you have the smart phones for free even when you don't get a data package so I now have a Nokia E71.

[Lil' Swimz$]

Yes but I get unlimited texting, unlimited picture messaging, alot of minutes, and insurance.

[Tigerlilly]

I get unlimited minutes, texts, internet, picture messaging, everything.. for £15 a month, which is like... $23 or something, & I have an iphone. But I had to pay £400 for the phone xD
I had a nokia e71 before Flutter.. good phone

[Flutter]

Yeah, we get hosed in North America and even worse in Canada. Our internet is still slow compared to most places and we have intense bandwidth limits which are apparently gone in many places. I can't imagine getting all you're getting for that much money. That's the way it should be.

That's good to hear I know who to go to if I have problems

[Tigerlilly]

Haha yeh xD Hopefully you won't have problems though
Today I'm listing more things on ebay, clothes this time.. I bought a new bag, some new tops and some shoes. Umm going to just watch tv and be lazy ^_^

[Lil' Swimz$]

TL that's so cheap! That's strange because I thought everything in the UK is more expensive.

[Flutter]

Not everything

[Tigerlilly]

It is very cheap.. What happened was, a few years ago I got a t-mobile sidekick and had to pay about £40 a month, then got the phone free.. I was only like 16 at the time and talked my parents into paying for it.
Then after about a year I got bored of that phone because it would freeze a lot etc, so I sold it and bought the nokia e71 but still had to pay the £40 every month even though I didn't have the phone I was paying for.. Then my contract ran out and I wanted an Iphone but T-mobile doesn't do Iphones.. so I told them I was leaving them and didn't want to renew the contract. So they told me if I bought the phone somewhere else and got it unlocked they'd do a cheaper plan for me so I'd stay with them.
So I bought an o2 Iphone, got it unlocked by them legally for £15 and went back to t-mobile.
Still... they only added a few bits. It's usually, ulimited texts & internet, & 300 minutes for £15. Still not bad.

(sorry essay) but yeh.. If you threaten to leave them they usually put the price down.
