The Rambling Musings of GeekyTanta
Call it a 'stream of consciousness'. It can be anything, anytime, mostly here. A bit of rambling, some ranting and general stuff I stumble across through the net. And, hopefully *fingers crossed* some writing, too.
Sometimes I Hate the Internet and Other General Bitching
So, the household has passed our monthly Internet limit and now instead of cruising through the web we're stuck on geriatric dial-up speed for *checks calendar* about the next 7-8 days. mad

Which could be worse I know. Last month Mooglies and I blew pretty much all of it on ZOMG in the first week and a half. It was a bloody long month that one let me rant to you! evil

So these days ZOMG is a thing of the past until we can work something out. Of course the easiest option is to just up our limit, but the Internet just costs too ******** much these days. At least it does for us.

Speaking of costs I see that Gaia has splashed out and given people 40 Gaian cash to play with for the Prom Bonanza Thingy. Oooh quick pick me up off the floor. Have you seen what you can buy for 40 cash? Sweet ******** all. As a person who will probably never get her hands on any actual Gaian cash to play with I hate the idea that all of the aquarium stuff is cash only. Is it too bloody hard to let us non American supporters of this sweet place have a chance to buy some nice aquarium stuff (and monthly collectibles and evolving items) without having to pay through the nose in the marketplace?

I know you guys have to make some money but the world doesn't end at the borders of the US! Give us a chance to buy some Gaian cash that doesn't really involve a credit card (which I refuse to get because they are the ultimate evil. It is way to easy to get over your head with someone else's money.)

Yeah, yeah I know there's Paypal, but I'm ranting here don't let facts get in my way. wink

Oh and why the hell am I going to spend a shitload of money, be it real or gold, on a fish/creature that's going to eventually die? If I'm putting my avi's hand in her pocket I want something that's going to stick around not cark it and leave me some clothing behind that will never cost as much as the original purchase.

And you get stuff all from the Overseer these days, luckily I've gotten some good s**t from my aquarium before the fish bubble collapsed. I feel sorry for anyone starting out with an aquarium these days, god only knows what they're getting.

So that was my rant, now give me my gold and piss off! lol



Absinthe makes the mind go wander.
