You know what I don't like? When the tech guy comes to fix my ethernet port, and not only fails to fix it (he was just there to find out if I was an idiot who didn't try another cord and another computer before deciding the port was the problem), but asks to use my computer to submit the report. While I have Feeding Frenzy open in one window, Gryffindor Seduction 101 open in another, and my homepage is set to my friends page. Ack. I picked up the underwear on the floor before he came, but I apparently should have cleaned up my browser too, because that was awkward. For me.

I don't think he saw anything, and luckily the tab he was working in was surrounded by relatively innocuous tabs like "glitterati" and "WIP amnesty '07". I'm not sure if I would have been more embarrassed by the dirty, dirty porn, or the clearly-HP-related title, but I'm glad I didn't have to find out.

But my damn ethernet is still broken. :(

Eek. Yeah, I've always admired that your homepage is your friends page. Mine is google, but I have like four shortcuts on my little bar that lead to LJ.

I've definitely just started new windows when friends need to use the computer because SO many of my tabs have like "NC-17" in them. There was definitely one time when I was skimming some porn with a totally clueless guy like two feet away. Screen angling for the WIN.

I DID start a new window! I did! But then he CLOSED IT and started working in a (thankfully empty) tab I had open in another window. *claws at face*

ACK! how awkward - I know exactly how you feel. *hugs*

(also, hi! You should come over some time - my roommates are apparently done being crazy! we will have more alcohol as of Sunday! we can sit and talk about how neither of us is managing to find girls to make out with! ...or we could talk about cock, whatever.)

Ack! that sounds horrifying! (especially because my LJ is nowhere near as innocuous as yours - it's house and wilson gasing at eachother adoringly)

I had to call NSIT today, too. because my wireless is throwing me off every 2 seconds. I had to go dig out my ethernet chord from the deep recess of my desk as it is never used except in such emergency situations. They have no idea what's wrong with the wireless either... :-/
