Hiatus...again

*If there are a lot of typos or grammatical problems in this post, I'm sorry. I'm on my phone and Autocorrect is the devil.*

I hate having to do this. I HATE it. I have to put ATV on hiatus yet again because of my laptop. I swear, this POS has given me nothing but problems for the entire year I've had it. I have 3, now 4, laptop carcasses spread throughout my room for various issues that I can't afford to fix. One has a cracked motherboard. Another, the one i had before i got this clunker last summer, has a bad hard drive. Yet another, my very first laptop, got the memory siphoned out of it by someone who was supposed to be fixing it and now the hard drive is bad in that one too. And now we're at the current one, which appears to either have a faulty processor or a bad motherboard. I just...and I mean just as in the last 72 hours....finished designing the icon headers and blog header for my review blog. I'm hoping that whatever's wrong doesn't result in a loss of information that I had on this computer bc I had a lot. Stories, poems, fonts, I have my entire life on that damn thing. I was starting on this week's File post and I had finally established a bit of a work schedule that I intended to implement when I woke up this morning. Unfortunately, it would seem as other plans were in store for me because when I woke up, my PS3 controller was malfunctioning so I thought I'd hop on Google to see if I could find out what the problem was. So I go to turn on the laptop and after a few seconds of the fan running, it shuts right back off. It crapped out sometime while I was asleep so I have no idea what happened.

All I know is that when I closed the laptop last night it was fine and by the time I woke up a few hours later, it wasn't working anymore. I've already had to replace both the charger and the battery within the last 6 months, now this. I'm not sure how long it will take to get this fixed bc I have to call around and get some price quotes and diagnostics done, but hopefully I'll be back by October. I've got some really fun posts planned for the entire month.

Its ironic though, I had just put the review blog on a temp hiatus a couple of days ago bc I wanted some time to roll out the things I'd been working on and start on this month's Files posts. Now i have no idea when I'll be back. Like I said a few months ago, I swear if its not one thing with me its another. Lol Anyway, I just wanted to make this post really quickly to let you know what's going on so that it won't be any surprise if I'm quiet for awhile. I'm sorry for having to take yet another break but hopefully this one won't be too long. I hope you're all having an awesome and productive week and I'll see you soon.
