Certainly can't download anything through it, whether I want to or not.

Ninja Duck: If she's worth pursuing, you'll have to be prepared for long periods of not seeing one another, very expensive travel bills, and there's always the possibility that you could move closer to one another and the relationship could blow up because you don't work well in person together on a regular basis. Really think hard about whether she's worth it, because long distance relationships are just awful. Lots of lonliness, not being there to comfort your boy/girlfriend when he/she is down, etc. Oh, and despite not getting to do any of the normal relationship stuff on a regular basis, you will still get to fight as much as you/she want(s)/feel(s) compelled to. Good luck either way, and potentially congratulations.

Slade, you almost sound like you don't like the relationship you're in now... I tease.
But yeah, Otal, LD is hard - it's almost not worth it because of the lack of seeing each other, and I've seen some LD relationships go horribly bad because of the sexual frustration (they can't see each other so they, er, use who's available to them). But I think I remember seeing somewhere that your girlfriend doesn't believe in premarital sex so you'd probably have to deal with that kinda temptation even if you were together...
Just don't believe it when people tell you that LD relationships are NEVER a good idea, because that's just not statistically accurate - it may RARELY be a good idea, but it can work out. Good luck, mate!

I would never be able to pursue a girl I met online because of the hopeless romantic in me. I'd need to meet her in a really awesome way, like saving her from a dragon or getting run over by her while she's riding a unicycle and juggling steak knives. But I guess if you meet the right girl, you can't be too picky about how.

I am actually finding the criticism harder to understand than the modernist poetry it discusses.

As soon as they can find a manufacturer that can produce them fast enough to meet demand.
My sick fish died yesterday. The infection hasn't spread to the rest of the tank, so all the other fishies are still happily swimming together.

But on that note, I managed to locate one via the evil Wal*Mart's site to store ordering system. I'm getting the Phantom Hourglass + gold DS bundle some time near the end of next week.
LttS: Alas, poor feeshy, we hardly knew ye.
Complaint: I had to take a lunch break today to save my sanity, which means I have to work a half hour later than I have been. But then again, work hasn't been difficult, only monotonous. I dunno.

And I'm jealous of your fancy DS! I love mine but it's the old silver original, heh.
