[@Loony] Yeah, it is pretty lame.  I'll get through it though, I've honestly known that I've needed to replace this thing for a while, I just hope I can hold off for another week or so. I wouldn't be too surprised if this thing stopped working in the next few days.

[@Akayaofthemoon] Thanks, I'm sure I'll be okay.  I'm actually looking at new ones right now, I just need to fight the temptation to buy one that I know isn't in my budget.
