The Symmetry Scandal

With my contract with the job agency ending next week, I still had 5 free days left so I could either get them paid, but taxes would be cutting it in half, or just take a vacation. Belgium here I come!!!
Rented a house in the Ardennes, lot's of nature and close to some lovely towns such as Bouillon.
Two weeks ago we were thinking of going to Corfu, but suddenly my mum's boyfriend had to go on a business trip leaving my mum with the dog, Skilly. Then decided we could find something closer to home where we could get the dog with us and we found this house last minute. Click here!
Leaving monday and _really_ looking forward to it.

Long time ago I used to order things at Wehkamp. It was very easy since you could get the items you didnt want back very easy.
Since I started swimming again I needed a new swimsuit, so I decided to check wehkamp because there is nothing I hate more then shopping for one. After a few minutes I found a nice one, not to expensive and pretty! I checked out the jackets as well since I badly needed one and found one for 40 euros. They have this policy that if you order before 8 you have it at home the next day. So 3 days later I finally recieved my order and to my surprise it only contained the jacket. I checked the reciepts and there was not a word about the swimsuit. Jacket didn't fit so I wanted to return it.
Next day I called to inform about the swimsuit and the return policy...

I told the woman how I waited 3 days for my order and her reply was "impossible" eh?
I asked what happened with my swimsuit and she replied "If you order something you should check if its available at the time, if it is out of stock you won't get it ofcourse!" told her that when I ordered the item was in stock. Her reply "It is on the reciept then" I told her it was not and she replied "Impossible!" err wha?
I then told her that I wanted to return my jacket and asked if there was a service where I could mail or bring it somewhere. She told me about DHL service points and I asked her wich was closest to my house. "You can't use this service" asked her why I couldn't "Because you are a new costumer" told her I was a costumer for years already but that didn't count somehow (don't ask why lol) So I asked her how I could return my items then. "We can make an appointment to come pick it up, every workday between 12.00 and 18.00" told her I wanted one at 17.30. "No, sorry, it's between 12.00 and 18.00 we can't make it more specific" told her I had work and I wouldnt take a day leave to stay at home waiting for wehkamp to get my stuff. "You will have to pay for the item and not return it" at that point something said click in my head and i got SO mad. I said, wow i think this is really crappy service and she actually managed to say this.... "No, you don't" asked her if she was insane telling me what to think and she told me not to be rude..

She has been busy the whole conversation trying to act as if I was a baby and as if I was telling lies (impossible!) Now she told me I was rude.. I'm sorry, I don't see how I was rude here...
Argh NEVER EVER am I gonna order at Wehkamp again. This is the worst service ever! considering just keeping the jacket. Maybe my mum likes it :P

Saturday Ruud came by to drop off a copy of Vista, installed it. (after I forgot to plug in my laptop, we needed to start over because the power was simply gone, yes I am THAT smart!) Installed a few drivers and it's up and running again. Few things are still weird though. My wireless doesn't seem to connect. It can see all the acces points, but can't connect to them somehow. Don't know what is up with that.. :S
some drivers seem to stop working altogether from time to time as well. First my webcam drivers. I de-installed them and then my cam worked (yes without any drivers :S) and yesterday my sound just stopped, telling me the drivers weren't installed. So I restarted the pc and the lovely sound of Vista greeted me. (/wrist)

Ach, I can be on a stable pc for now till my pc is fixed aka new one :P

Yesterday i woke up and something wasnt right. When I tried to talk to my cat (Yes, I'm one of those people!!) no sound came out and it felt like a bomb went off in my throat. My head felt "woolie" (Anyone got a better name for this?) and after half an hour of trying to get up and get dressed I decided I felt to sick to go to work. Called work and tried to let him know my voice was gone (quite tricky :P) Woke up again at 10 and I felt a bit better, just some kind of virus.
At 11 I wanted to watch the new episode of One Tree Hill (must watch serie!!!) and I went to watch it at my desktop, 2 minutes in the power went out and I decided to grab my laptop. Started it up and then I noticed I wasn't the only one coming down with a virus. Never seen so much porn ads before the Screen of Doom... Blue Screen. To make a long story short, I spend the next 6 hours trying to get my antivirus program to run and I found out it was a Trojan in Win32. Looked up what could be done about it and tried all, nothing worked. At this point I was so pissed that I got my Windows XP cd and just formatted the whole thing. Worked like a charm, so I tried to setup the internet and found out drivers were missing. After 2 hours of searching, found out that the network drivers weren't compatible with windows XP... I was ready to either throw my laptop out of the window or kick Bill Gates, at these times I just wish I saved more for a mac -.- next time.. next time :P
Now I knew the virus was gone and if I installed Vista like a moron my laptop would be allright <3 Special thanks to Bart who helped me NOT to have a nervous breakdown because of this :D

I finally watched the first episode of the season from One Tree Hill wich was great!!! My bf decided to speak Danish to me, wich was very very understandable *cough* Had an awesome talk about ice cappuccino and in wich coffee machine to make it (NONE ffs :P) and a generally nice night with some dc-ing of my good old desktop, but who cares!!! *Happy*
