Something happened to our laptop computer yesterday. Susan thinks it may have had something to do with a spill she had near it, but honestly, I didn't see any sign that anything had gotten underneath the keys. And even if it was caused by her spill, the computer is almost three years old and is starting to act up.
Last night, when she told me about what happened, she was mad at herself and the look on her face made me want to cry. The only thing I could do was hug the hell out of her and make her understand that no matter what, she is worth more than any silly old computer.
When we went to bed last night, the U, I, and G keys were not working. Earlier the F key hadn't been working either, but it started responding after we had come back from dress rehearsal for that play we're doing for St. Patrick's Day. So, since the F key started working again, and if the keys not working were because of a spill, I thought there might be a chance of the other ones coming back as well.
I talked to Susan at lunch and she said that it's still not working right. We need a computer though. So at lunch, I went to Best Buy and bought a new one. Due to the economy, it wasn't the best one they have or as fast or powerful as I would have liked, but it is better than the one I bought three years ago and it will keep us computing for the time being.
Even if I couldn't have afforded to get a replacement, though, there is no way that a silly machine could ever be worth more than the wonderful woman named Susan who shares her life with me.
