Technology!

I think this laptop (which I got earlier this year) is fritzing out for real. It's been doing weird things for a while. The capslock randomly gets stuck and it's frozen more than once. Sometimes the screen just goes black. Today it's flickering on a regular basis and occasionally going blurry. I even got video of it in case the store can't replicate the problem. That last one, hilariously, was what happened with my previous laptop.

My friend who picked it up for me (at a locally-owned place in KC) will be picking it up today to take in tomorrow. They work nearby the store, which is why I got it there in the first place. My luck with any sort of electronics means I try to buy locally when at all possible and Lawrence doesn't have a good tech store anymore.

Very grateful my media machine is still working *knock wood* but its setup isn't conducive to doing regular computer stuff (like internet or writing or really anything except streaming music and shows). Good thing I'm still in a writing block! *lolsob*

Aw, man. /o\ Hope you get it sorted soon!

Fingers crossed.

In the meantime it'll be a good experiment in seeing how I feel when I'm not spending the majority of my day in front of a computer. That means I'll be spending a lot more time lying on the couch doing nothing but maybe I need more of that. We'll see!
