So, my laptop is dead. It was beeping and barking and shutting itself off. I took it to the Apple store and the guy told me that sometimes the MacBook Pros get shot in the arm and then they don’t work right and sometimes they get shot in the head and they’re dead. He said mine was shot in the head. He couldn’t tell me much more than that, but I went with it. We packaged it up and sent it to Houston. The doctors are working on it now. Hopefully they’ll be able to revive it. I’ve visited so many trashy websites I’m sure they’ll probably have to do a kidney transplant as well.

What does that mean for you? Well, that means for the next week or so, any updates to the blog will be minimal and sporadic. Emphasis on the minimal.

Since my Nokia was basically carved from a single piece of soapstone about 10 years ago and painted to look like a phone, I’m not able to blog from it. So here I am on a PC at the Berkeley Public Library. You only get one hour sessions. And after bickering with a semi-homeless hippie that smelled like stale urine and Tara Reid’s old tube top to get off my reserved machine and then checking my email, I only have a few minutes left.

But don’t worry, I’ll come back tomorrow and hopefully get a post up. The good news is that I now have a library card, which in 2012 means free movies! They actually have a pretty decent selection too, but no porn (I know!).

So, hang in their dear readers! I’ll be up-and-running on my usual schedule as soon as possible, I haven’t forgotten about you!
