another one bites the dust

well we ran for 2 hours 10 minutes this time, got a weird-ass vibration that oscillated for a bit then leveled out above alarm... we told them to bring it down, we'll try another balance shot. yea! what fun! i spent almost my entire christmas day to make 0.00% progress. this must be what it feels like to sell one's soul. i'm going to bed. oh sweet, uncomfortable bed that is my haven away from this site.
