System File Missing

My laptop has pooped out on me. I've been getting the "Blue Screen of Death" at least once a week lately. But I thought maybe if I tweaked one or two things it would stop. I turned my computer completely off more regularly. And had more frequent virus checks. But maybe I should have just had someone check out my computer. Because now the only thing my computer does is show a black screen with white letters stating, basically, that I don't have Windows. What? ...What?
I knew that I was a computer junkie. A junkie in the sense that I am ALWAYS on it. Not that I know much about how it works. But without it, I am realizing how dependent on it I am. On Tuesday, the day it decided to stop working, I was lost in what to do after I returned home from school. I read a magazine. Talked to my roomie. (Maybe I should have studied..?)
And now I'm thinking that I may have needed this break from my dearest computer. I started reading a book last night. I bought A Prayer for Owen Meany in January, recommended by James' BFF Kristin. And now I have the chance to read it. Though I didn't spend all night attempting to get halfway through the book, I did make a dent in it. It's funny how I love reading when I actually do it, but hate thinking about reading. Kind of like the problem many people have with exercise. Once you're done exercising at the gym you feel great! But planning to do it and taking the steps to get there is a drag.
So anyway. Of course I can't go completely without any computer! And here I am. In the Love Library at SDSU, writing a blog...

Just a little hello...

I feel like I'm in a good place right now. Maybe it's just this second.. or today.. or this week. But right now I feel good. I just started actually doing stuff at Starbucks today like the register and simple coffee drinks. It's exciting to be doing something that I haven't done before. I'm also happy that I am keeping up with reading in my classes. It makes me feel like I can actually handle everything instead of being a big lazy bum. Oh, and yet another reason I feel good is that I am trying to keep up with this year's election. I am finally really interested in the world today. Politics have never been anything I really paid attention to or followed. But now I turn up the radio when news is brought up. And I check this AOL website often to see how the primaries are going. You can check both Democrat and Republican results on the left hand side. Exciting!
Well, those are the reasons I am feeling good.

Some other things to note: Grandma is out of the hospital, but still needs thoughts and prayer and looking after.
