*Unhappy Update*All right ya'll. I apologize for not getting to any of the new devs or anything (no one's complained, I'm just upset with myself).
However, the computer got better for a day or two, and now it's gotten worse. My friend says it's probably an interior fan that has DIED...
I'll find out tomorrow what I'll have to do, but I dunno when it's all gonna get fixed.
Anyway, wish me luck on getting this thing back up and running so I can do catchup. And homework....*sigh* Cross your fingers!

All right, I'll have PPDF8 back up in a few days with some new winners. For the moment though, I need to whine (lol, read it out, it'll give a bit of an explanation as to why I might not be replying)
In the last few days my laptop has been shutting itself off while I'm right in the smack middle of doing something. After freaking out and thinking I had a virus or something, I called a friend who works with computer and here's the prognosis:
It's overheating
Sucks. Well, my fan I put under the computer's wire died...so I guess that's explainable. So I go into Best Buy to buy a new cord
They don't sell the cord separatly
So anyway, I've now bought a WHOLE NEW FAN...what a pain. Probably a good thing though, because when I stole my sister's cord for my fan the other night, the fan didn't seem to be too strong. But this one's seeming to work pretty hard core.
So anyway...I may not be around for a few days cept on and off while I figure out if I've killed anything else on this thing
Haha, wish me luck

Barnes & Nobel-
search.barnesandnoble.com/book…"MIKE is an engaging story of friendship, love and overcoming guilt caused by past mistakes. I would recommend this to older teens who may someday have to face such choices themselves."
- Susan Eileen Walker, author of 'The Secret of the Dance'
"(The) series deals with the real issues facing today's society, including, but not limited to teens and young adults. It's refreshing how the author kept it real, and with no gratuitous sex and unnecessary foul language!"
- Darlene Wofford, author of 'Edgewise'
"L. Diane Wolfe has reached the top of my list of well-loved authors out there. These books give readers so much more than just a new inner strength as they read how friends struggle through and work towards their dreams."
- Linda Butler, avid fan
"This amazing author has a talent of 'hooking' the reader. MIKE was totally awesome and made me weep a few times due to the drama!"
- Emily Weppler, young avid fan
Past mistakes can never be forgiven …
Mike Taylor is the epitome of stability. His family is proud of his academic and athletic achievements at Georgia Tech, and despite the temptations of college life, he has maintained his moral standards. Yet beneath the peaceful surface, Mike is consumed with guilt, fearing condemnation and rejection. A former girlfriend's abortion and the intense love he feels for his roommate's wife constantly remind Mike of his failures. Unable to forget and full of shame, he refuses to forgive himself. When Danielle enters his life, he realizes he can no longer hide the past. Will she be able to reach him time or is Mike past the point of redemption?

Fabulous Place to Be!!
PLEASE SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL HUMANE SOCIETY
Please adopt from the humane society, an older cat if possible, the kitten always get adopted and the older cats can only be kept so long before they're put down. They deserve a good home too.
PLEASE SPAY AND NEUTER YOUR PETS
This will cut down the number of animals which don't have a home and end up in the wild and can't take care of themselves. Much as we all love baby animals, there are older animals that need our care too.
IF YOU ADOPT A CAT, KEEP IT!!!! UNLESS CERCUMSTANCES (Like moving) ARE OTHERWISE, DON'T JUST GIVE IT UP BECAUSE YOU'RE NOT A CAT OR DOG PERSON, IT WAS YOUR KIDS, THEY MOVED AWAY, ETC
There was one lady today that was dropping off cats because she got them for her daughter when he husband died, and now her daughter's moved away and she's not a cat person. There's a possibility because these cats are older that they'll be put down all because this lady has decided that they're not worth her time, they were only there for her daughter
IF YOU DO HAVE A CAT YOU CAN'T TAKE CARE OF OR NO LONGER TAKE CARE OF, BRING THEM TO THE HUMANE SOCIETY. THE HUMILIATION IF IT'S YOUR OWN CAT IS BETTER THAN THE POOR THING BEING EATEN BY A WILD ANIMAL, STARVING TO DEATH, GETTING RUN OVER, ETC
No, it's not ok to drop off a cat in the woods. Their anscestors may have been wild, but they're not. Hey, we used to be wild too, but who here can live without a roof over their head now? Hard, isn't it? It's also NOT OK to drop it off at a farm! I live on a farm, we have a barn cat...we can not take care of all these cats. There's only so many mice, and there are coyotes all over the place. So, it's not helpful to drop them off at a farm. I've brought so many poor kittens and cats to the humane society, spending my own money so they can get a good home because someone figures we'll take them in and they don't have to fork over money or take the humiliation of bringing them in. Give these poor things a chance
IF YOU CAN, DONATE MONEY!
These people are non-profit, but it takes a lot of money for them to feed, water, bathe, vaccinate, etc, these animals, they need help
