Done!

They're like TVTropes Jr., but with more songs and less links. Plus, I caught Super Secret Super Spy today, and while the tickle machine is groan-inducingly cliched (No, Mr. Secret, I expect you to laugh) there's not much to dislike about a parachute that looks like a pizza. A pizza parachute. When the parachute hits your eye like a big pizza pie, that's amore....

ANYway, I may have downloaded an episode of a TV show that doesn't necessarily have to be Backyardigans, and this episode might have - in fact, it does have - a little glitch. 7 minutes in, the screen breaks in half. Half the screen is frozen on the previous scene, and the other half is the entirety of what the show is supposed to be doing at this point. It stays like that for another 12 minutes, which is annoying (though at least nothing's cut off). Is that fixable, like, with video editing... capabilities? (I have no idea how I'd go about doing that, of course, but if the answer is yes I can find out.)

And I don't know, maybe I moved the computer funny, but I heard a pop. One of the hinges on the monitor is slightly out of alignment, it looks like.

How fixable is this? Right now, the monitor is just not as slow-to-move as it ought to be, and I obviously do not want to cause any *more* damage.

This has really not been my week :(

(Well, I did manage to make chocolate chip cookies today and hide the evidence so well that 'dul didn't know I'd baked. That's good.)
