You are dignified, spiritual, and wise. Always unsatisfied, you constantly try to better yourself. You are also a seeker of knowledge and often buried in books. You tend to be philosophical, looking for the big picture in life. You dream of inner peace for yourself, your friends, and the world. A good friend, you always give of yourself first.

The World's Shortest Personality Test

It's creepy because it's true.

Okay, so I went to Office Max and spent $50 (ack! Bad Mer, bad Mer!) on CD-Rs, CD labels, and a new black ink cartridge. I've decided to start moving some of my monstrous BT downloads onto CD-- things like Sailor Stars, the OVERclocked Remix collection, etc. But why is it that I need enough MB of "temporary space" to burn CDs so I can free up the MB? Augh, how am I supposed to do this?

And when I delete something (that is, hit the delete button) it doesn't ever show up in my Recycle Bin... ;_; How do I get those things back? I never emptied the recycle bin... it makes no sense that they'd be gone completely! Hmm, maybe a Temp Files search is in order... I accidentally deleted the Hina Afterward special and the BSSM Stars eps. 175, 178. I don't know how it happened... stupid CD burning. HELP!

Also annoying is how I buy Neato's MediaFACE labels to go with my MediaFace 4 label designer... but no matter how many times I check, or calibrate my printer (through the program or through my Printer Toolbox), I a) always end up with labels a bit crooked, cutting off one thing or another, and therefore wasting ink and b) the papers never completely match the options given in the program. So long as the label is in the center of the page though, it'll print "mostly okay." ARGH! Is there any way to check out which label designers work with what paper templates? I've got all these "US CD Plus" labels, but even the company that they're made for doesn't seem to have an option to use them in their program... ;_;

So far, I've managed to successfully burn and print labels for:
* Sailor Stars Vols. 1 & 2
* Yu-Gi-Oh Duel Monsters GX Vols. 1-3
* PGSM Parodies, Episodes 1-3
* Ami-chan's First Love, plus the DVD Extras and SuperS Specials

I've got a printed CD label waiting on 2 more episodes for Stars 3 ... and I nearly burned the PGSM Act Zero + Specials, before Hina Afterward disappeared on me.

Hmm, sounds like Erin, Neal, and Joyce are coming over tonight-- something about Erin's apartment being infested with bugs and they're helping her move out? Anyway, I've got work from 8-midnight, so it doesn't sound like I'll be joining THAT party...

Huh. I need to read some good fics.

Right click on your recycle bin. That should be all I need to tell you, you owe me one.

Eh..?

I did right click-- like I said, nothing ever shows up in the Recycle Bin, so it's not like I can Open or Explore and see anything, and there's nothing to be emptied. I clicked on the Properties, but the setting for deleting immediately was NOT checked, so... I don't know what's going on! ;_;

Do a search for the files you're missing. And do a virus scan, and a disc scan for errors. Go to My Computer and hit properties in the right-click menu of your C: to getto the disc scan. Also try making some blank .txt files and deleting them and see where they go, it could just be something stupid.
