My laptop is on the fritz.  My 'U' fell off, and it's positively irrepairable since I waited so long.

AND...

I figured out I could type w/o the 'U', using the silver plating.  But, my puppy - Tank - chewed through the power cord as well.  ...but it had been chewed through for a long time, and I think it's the connector and not the cord.

Regardless, she goes into the shop today.  And since I have it under warranty they'll send her away.  *sob*  Assuming I can get out of my driveway.

I still have internet access, but won't be on as much.  And likely won't be on YM at all, Bill hates me installing 'junk' on his computer and it slows the upstairs one down too much.

So, I'm not hiding or ignoring you all, THIS TIME.  *grin*
