I may poof from BYC for a few days.

My computer's screen is acting up, so if I happen to leave for a few days, then you know what happened. Just wanted to let you all know!

I hope it doesn't come to that.

Honestly, I'm not surprised. Metafalss (My computer's name) is 6 years old, and it has seen my aunt through college. It's definitely on its final ropes.

Luckily, this means that I can buy an iPad!

Still stinks for Metafalss, though.

My uncle, for whatever reason, named his computer, his very first and only computer, "Minerva". I laughed and laughed, but when he died a couple years later and left all of his things to me, I felt like I was adopting a child. She had a NAME after all.

Minerva is in the attic right now, pending a better use.

Hope all works out with Metafalss, or said replacement IPad.

Aw, PK! Don't be gone too long!

My computer, Kenny, has been around since around the time I was a small child. He's 10 years old at LEAST.

Minerva was a fabulous computer with a personality from a book by Robert Heinlein. She was eventually transferred to a human body.
