orcishgamer: Wait until you sense shit is getting boring for her and let have a conversation with her. That's my best advice. Just like there's plenty of cat I girls there should be more cat II girls in the sea. Unless it's going to cause drama among all your friends, it's not the end of the world, hopefully she's not trying to sneak some sort of "out of left field, we really need to be together forever" kind of thing on you, it could still work out fine.

And this is why I really need to start using social media:)
A slight update.

We have established that this is nothing but an affair, as she just broke up with her boyfriend doesn't want a new relationship (*Yes!*). Also, she will be leaving town in a month (not to far for a weekend hot action cop extravaganza but far enough for seeing each other to often). So far smooth sailing.

AlKim: I explained to this to HP who fixed the laptop again despite it being 14 months past its warranty time. Who knows, maybe you could do the same.
Nah, I think I got this laptop in 2008 or so, so warranty void for a long time already. And it isn't mine but from work, so the only one I should convince anything is for my employer to get me a replacement.

Too bad the newer laptops that my employer buys now seem to be some shitty Dells with much poorer (chiclet) keyboards, apparently poorer selection of ports, and my boss even told me at least his Dell doesn't even have Bluetooth? WTF? I wouldn't be surprised if they have only Intel graphics too.

I guess I'll use this current one as long as it has at least one working USB port...

I'd guess that the computers were acquired by a semi-separate part of the company. Accountants and the like, y'know, people who know numbers well enough to take the cheapest (not necessarily the best) offer but who don't necessarily know much about computers. Even if they did know a thing or two, it's possible they wouldn't mind Intel HD graphics because many business laptops are never used for anything too graphics-intensive.
Pissed at the Resident Evil 6 demo and people who say resident evil is not scary and was always an action game

Well, it isn't 100% NSA as I just can't dump her when I'm bored. Not that I would ever do such a thing, so some kind of exit strategy is still required once this boils down.

And I can hardly do the kinky stuff, so the bucket of pigs blood will stay under the bed.

But it's fun, surprisingly good and for the moment it is a nice change of pace from all the countless random Swedish bikini models (I might exaggerate. A little.)
Shit! I checked dxdiag on my bosses' Dell laptop, and sure enough, it seems to have only some Intel graphics chip (GPU). The CPU seemed pretty good (some 4-core Intel i5), but Intel GPU??? That's apparently what I'd be getting if my current work laptop breaks down.

Who knows, maybe it is still quite good if it is some recent Intel GPU, but I seem to see Intel graphics laptop users complaining the most how games, even old ones, just don't work that well, or at all. Are even the newest Intel GPUs really that bad (compatibility-wise or otherwise), if we forget running Crysis 2 and such on it for now?

Maybe I'll stay with my current Thinkpad T400 work laptop yet more, even with its single working USB port... For its age, its ATI Radeon HD mobility chipset seems to perform quite well, and compatibility with older games is very good.

Bored at work today. Chatted with 3 different fellow female work colleagues (well OK they are also temps who work upstairs). Made my day LOL. Shame ALL of them either married or not single ....argh...i never work anywhere where there are decent/good/attractive/cute single gals....not that im looking ;).
Oh, look! Girlfriends!

Mine just told me she doesn't think she loves me anymore.

I don't think I want to get up from my bed anymore.

That is all, ladies and gentlemen. I'd vent about how she gave my life meaning and was everything to me but... yeah. I'm pathetic enough, I guess.

Hey don't let it get you down too much (I know a lot easier said than done). I had the same thing about three months ago , it hurts at the time time, but it does get easier.

The most important thing is to remember to like yourself, as damn it we're all awesome people with awesome interests and talents.

And you're not pathetic, sh*t hurts, especially when you put effort into something and it gets taken away.
Just try and keep your spirits up, go see some friends, play a epic game.

And if you want to talk about it feel free to Pm me, I've been there and it helps to talk about it.
