It's all good so far

I was headed to camp last week and realized that I was missing a piece of camping gear. It was one of those essentials that has accompanied me on many trips. It was my laptop.

I have been working with a laptop for the last 10 plus years at my job and surrendered the machine at the layoff. I have purchase three at the house. The first one was a casualty of teenaged emotion and took a dive off the daughter ‘s desk. There were tears and great remorse.

The second was the net book. I used it for a while, it was displaced by my IPad and the work laptop, so I loaned it to the daughter’s fiancé. The campus is not very progressive about laptop use in class, so it gathers dust in the dorm.

The third also belongs to the daughter, and I now have found that it had died, suffering death by curious cat. Said feline becoming entangled in the cords and pulling the laptop to its death. And of course, the warranty had expired. Fortunately, she has the data backed up on Dropbox (I hope).

So this weekend we will shop for a replacement. It won’t be the Mac air book that I want, rather, it will be something cheap, and hopefully heavy enough to terminally fix the feline.
