Life, is horrid..
13 years ago
Welp.
Firstly my RPG system is in the final draft stages, considering either a Kickstarter or microprinting through a local company. 8 years of work roughly from 2002 to now, and its all but done, all the co creators are on board and everythings going well. So thats good, but it may all be worthless.
The computer I've been doing this on is a refurbished HP Compaq 6910p business class laptop, In the.. few years now i've had it, it is simply falling apart.
Theres massive heat damage to the entire laptop, the screen is dark now only ets to half brightness. The keys are falling off, 2 of the 3 usb ports don't work anymore. The battery is completely dead, power plug port is worn out. Hard drive has been replaced, twice. Screens been replaced once already. Gets hot under the DVD-ROM and memory sections even when idling. The control strip at the top is completely dead, the lights flas on and off when using the number key. Pressing capslock causes them to flash and the volume goes up and down. Theres missing screws, the touchpad is , well I don't know what is wrong with it but it no longer works, enabling it causes the mouse to run around the screen.
Had money saved up to get a newer computer, dual or tri core with some kind of on board video instead of this outdated radeon x2300, that money had to go to a trip to texas for my GF's mothers funeral, now we're -700 in the hole and no idea how to mitigate or undo the expense lost due to car rental places, mean family and so on. The money for a laptop, post trip is gone, the cash for the trip is gone and the backup fund is gone. I am literally counting the days until the system undergoes a total failure and crashes.
The desktop I had, was sold to buy parts for the car, which ended up breaking down anyways a few months later. So that backup rig is out.
I have a horrendous pain in my kidneys, leg weakness, and unless its dim in the room i have to wear sunglasses due to having my eyes cooked by the sun. also GF and I have been coughing out dust and grime since we left the state, shes got a fever and I feel pretty ill myself, sleep pattern is heavily messed up due to the car trips and caffeine spiking. Shes got one messed up leg and tension soreness. Mild sunburns all around and other possible issues.
At least the RPG is completed, not that I have a means to do anything with it even though it's been sent to a few people, if the computer dies all the work dies too. FML.

I recommend to take backups in order to avoid losing all that work.
Get well soon, I hope things get better for you!
