I don't see how people think BitTorrent is easier than IRC for downloading. I can't seem to get BT to work, *ever*. For example, I finally came across a Torrent file with the complete Legendz anime series (raw, natuerlich) for download. It's 13 GB in size, so I have to put it on the hda6 partition of my hard drive. This partition requires root password to do anything, so BT fails there. I look *everywhere* for another BT file for just single episodes raw, but none seem to exist outside of episode 32.

I plan on asking Hunter how the hell he gets ahold of raws. I'm sure there's a channel on IRC somewhere that hosts exclusively that (hell, I know there are, just, I don't know where to find them). Besides, IRC is a helluva lot faster; due to the BT restrictions on-campus, when I was trying (trying being the operative word; it didn't even properly connect) in Windows, the ETA was 254 *days*. That's some pretty fucked-up shit right there, considering I can get a .rar from IRC of the same files probably in two or three days.

Figured out how to remove the front bench seat of the van. I plan on vacuuming up where it was to remove all the old padding hair crap. I also figured out what was wrong with the front seat belt, but will need a large socket to fix it, as the space to turn this particular bolt is much too small for my adjustible crescent wrench. As for the driver's seat, it seems to be fairly-well stuck to the frame and won't budge. Probably needs a bit of working at before it'll move. (I'm removing the seats, btw, so I can install new seat pads and covers eventually.) Upon quick diagnostic, the gas hoses do indeed have holes where it had appeared they did. Absolutely no gas had gotten past the second hole until I almost removed the hose this afternoon, in fact. So, yes, there's a bit of a problem there.

Can't figure out what's wrong with that front door lock; comparing it to the other, it moves in exactly the same way; something seems to be catching where it shouldn't be, or not catching where it should be, in regards to the opening mechanism and its relation to the locking mechanism.

Roque left chicken out to thaw. This means he's going to cook tonight. This means my previous hypothesis was correct.

Okay humanity, y'all can stop being dicks for the day any time now.

What does that mean? It means that if we've held a conversation today (conversation includes an exchange of words from both parties, and today includes all times since I have woken up), you came across as such. This is not meant to be insulting; on the contrary, I'm requesting a ceasefire. It's upsetting. As a result, today's whole overall feel just went to crap.

So, it turns out there are no other ways of obtaining this particular series, because it's so obscure or something I guess. Hunter basically told me to get a job, which he then turned to "get a second job then" when informed that I already had one. Umm, second job = no time in the evenings = death, remember? Yeah, you came across as a dick. And all I did to you was ask for a little help, jackass. You never did answer my question, by the way. No, not everyone else has the funds you have to spend on computers. No, not everyone else has the ability to get through school on a mere 12 credit hours a semester, especially when one is expected to be able to afford it out-of-pocket with no financial aid. You fucking suck.

Tried to get anything done with the van this evening, but nothing worked as it should.
