The laptop, she is dead.

First went the fan, then went the power supply plug-in thingy. The keys on the far right had been whacked out for a while (Home, Page Up, Page Down, etc.) and now it's just a broken thing on the dining room table.

Looks like it's reading emails at the library for me until we can afford to fix or replace our laptop. No pictures, no iTunes, no midnight blog postings. The good news is that I once before lived a life where there was no such thing as the Internet and I got along pretty well.

Wish us luck getting back to laptop ownership. This might be harder on my wife than on me.

I think it's great you're laptop is female. :D I'm sad she's broken, though. I think I have some kind of idea of how much she means to you. :) I hope there's something you can do about her. :) Haha, this whole using "she" to refer to the laptop thing just amuses me, but then again, I'm weird I know. Mine might not be a she. I call it honey, (I know that's sad) but never he or she (you know, we only have one word for he/she in Finnish, we make no difference in the gender). Oh well, I'll just shut up now. :) Ttyl. I'm such a teenager. Lol. :D
