First of all, I want you to understand I love and respect both of my parents very much. That being said...
I KNEW IT WAS A HARDWARE ISSUE!
The thing is, my mom was fully convinced that my computer died because of a software issue. She also blamed my tablet because I was using my tablet when it shut down on Friday completely. I wasn't convinced. Last night I cleared off my hard drive and reinstalled the OS... and every time I moved the mouse or clicked the next process to set up my computer it froze for 3-5 minutes at a time. Finally i got to the "desktop" of my computer and it just had an icon for my hard drive and the headbar. Every time I tried to open the applications to see if I could put the dock up, the computer froze and then all but the wallpaper disappeared. Then the screen went black... multiple times. I figured, since the hard drive was empty that there must be some hardware issue causing my computer to do this. My mom still believed it was a software issue.
We took it in to our local version of the apple store (Small Dog Electronics) and I explained and showed the guy what it was doing (when it doesn't work even with the repair person looking at it, you know your computer has a REAL problem) and the fist thing out of his mouth:
"Sounds like something is wrong with your hard drive."
So yeah, I may have to wait until the end of next week to get my computer back... But, at least I was right. 
I miss u

I saw a Pimp hat in the store and it made me think of you. lol
Nice to see you got it all straight!
Were you able to save the files? Or are they lost to the world?

And now you pay to have them recover the data from the hard drive.
Seriously, you just lost all that art and you haven't burnt down a pre-school?!
Are you sure you're alright?
1349877 1349899 I regularly back up my computer with Time Machine on an external hard drive. I only lost one picture actually. Everything else I already had a png of that was uploaded onto DA already. I'm not crazy. I'm just prepared
I could of told you that.
