Good Sunday: That New Computer Smell

I’ve been having laptop troubles and Word troubles and then my laptop developed a major glitch and after trying to fix it for two days and not having anything to type on, I bought a new laptop and had it overnighted to me.  The relief was overwhelming: I could type again.  I type, therefore I am.  And since it was new, all the other troubles went away, too, including the Word glitch that was making me insane.  I don’t actually know if there’s a New Computer Smell, but it there is, it’s better than roses.  Why?  Because I can type again!

What good thing do you want to type about today?
