Remember my new laptop?
Bought it in November?
Love it, love it love it?
Broken.
Not the whole laptop, but the screen appears to be broken.
Last night, I finished doing my surfing and I shut down the laptop, closed the lid, and went to sleep.
I woke up this morning, picked up the laptop, put it carefully in my laptop briefcase, went to work.
I was in meetings for most of the day, but around 1:30, I pulled it out, and when I turned it on, the screen was all white, except for the lower right-hand corner where it looks like someone shot the plasma behind the screen with a bullet.
The screen isn’t cracked, but there is some very obvious damage.
Real Man said it looked like I had closed the lid on something, but I know that I didn’t.
So, I’m pretty bummed.
However, let’s find some good news here:
1.) It is still under warranty.
2.) There are two licensed repair places relatively near me.
3.) My Mom offered to lend me her laptop until mine is fixed.
4.) Even without my Mom’s laptops, we do have other computers I can use.
5.) Maybe without a computer, I can finally finish reading Under the Dome by Stephen King!
So, even though I’m bummed, it’s all good.
I’ll be back tomorrow as my usual witty, irresistible self.
For tonight, though, I’m going to wallow in popcorn, hot chocolate, Bones, 30 Rock, and Fringe.
