The computer is dead, long live the laptop

Posted by on Saturday, December 30th, 2006

Blogging from the kitchen . . . now I’m blogging from the library . . . blogging while walking is very hard though . . . not enough arms . . . blogging from the couch . . .

I bought a new computer yesterday, and the new wireless router seems to be working very well.  Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

My new friend is shiny and black, and quite light, with a nice wide screen.  I resisted the Macs and their unexplained Mac-derived upcharge.

I’m going to go catalog the books in the library.  Ah, geek heaven.

Happy New Year, everyone.  And watch out for electrical storms.  I promise you, they are stronger than surge supressors.

    I don’t know which to congratulate you on first–the new computer, or the fact that you have something in your home known as a library. We have something in our home known as a big mess of books everywhere, watch your step.

    Oooh! How awesome for you!

    Can only imagine the geeky delight of being able to catalog your library. Mmm mmm good!

    I’m jealous of anyone with a shiny new wireless computer, even though I live in a studio apartment and there’s no next room to blog from! Have fun, and Happy New Year!

    Oh, hooray for new computer! We tried cataloging the music library once but conceded defeat. I need a freelance librarian to come to the house.

    Well, you got that lap top! Now you can take it all with you! Yeay!

    Loved the Irish, and that you weren’t telling us in some inscrutable way that you were dying. NO NO NO…”No tumors, no grippe, no typhoid”.

    Live long and prosper!
