A week with Ubuntu; my last week in WR

Well, its my final week here in Warner Robins.

Man…over 12 years of being here at this place…I don’t know what to actually expect when I move to Atlanta this Saturday.

For those who are new to this journal, I will be moving from Warner Robins to Atlanta in order to attend college at Oglethorpe University. Me and mom have been wrangling with records, transcripts, loan apps, and other such nonsense for the last couple of days…turns out that I’ve (yes, I) have been AUDITED by the IRS because of a few technicalities in the FAFSA that I had filed several months back. So it seems that we’ll be suffering some repercussions from that within the next couple of months. Oh well…

In the meantime, I’m trying to develop a field of contact in the “A”, as it is popularly known down here. Dunno if I’ll be going to any cons as of yet, as there seems to be few of them; I know that Atlanta has a big-ass “alternative” community (at least, in proportion to the size of the city proper) that could possibly rival that of San Francisco (especially Atlanta’s famed BDSM crew), but other than that, its not that much to see up there, from the looks of it. I know that Williams Street Productions, which makes Adult Swim and Toonami (two pioneering television blocks in their respective rights), is based in Atlanta; I know that “Furry Weekend Atlanta” takes place in February; there is a vibrant religious community (more than just Christianity, actually) up there; and, well, there are a few pseudo-science practitioners up there (mostly hypnotists and hypnotherapists, among others).

Otherwise, that’s about it. *sigh*

Meanwhile, I’m waiting for HP to send that XP CD in the mail so that I can reinstall it before this week is over with. I’ve tried my best with Ubuntu (both in GNOME and KDE), and have tried to look on the bright side of it (at least its open-source…), but now I await a return back to the ghetto with which I am most familiar: Windows XP.

nyeh…

Anyway, that’s what’s up with me. Plus, I had a “sort-of” fight at , but its over with now, since I posted a revised edition of my first and prior post. Now to deal with those DFs at the place…um…nevermind (waste of time anyway).

Peace!

PS: hopefully, this won’t be my last post at LJ.
