Withdrawal Isn't Always Good
It has been several days since the AC adapter for my laptop died. My body shakes because of the withdrawal.
I had no idea I was so dependent on computers. But only having limited access to the work computer that is connected to the internet has shown me just how much I rely on my laptop being accessible all the time.
I miss having speakers. So much music, so much sound gone.....only a whisper of a memory. The computer here has no sound card, much less speakers.
I miss having a keyboard that works all the time. The one here at work will, for no reason, stop working. Mouse still works. Monitor still works. PC still works. So I have to reboot. The keyboard works after that. But for how long, who knows? Also, the buffer or something is screwy because I can type faster than the characters on the screen.
But hope still shines. The new adapter should be here in a couple of days, mid-next week at the latest.
On a happier note, bought The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy yesterday. I love that movie. So much. Douglas Adams (RIP) is a master.

Hey, since your laptop is getting fixed soon, (no excuse there!) any ideas about whether or not you'll be doing nano this year?
I'm going to give it a shot again.
Oh, I most certainly will be NANO again this year. Last year was all practice, baby!
