I think I can safely say that my laptop's going to fine. Browsed a Mac support forum and symptoms point to a logic board failure. Bad news is that my 3-year insurance plan expired last month. Good news (under the circumstances) is that my laptop falls within a range of iBooks for which Apple issued a recall. Telephoned Apple; turns out that the recall also has an expiration (3 years from date of purchase). Made the cut with only 1 day to spare.
So that's a relief. Still a little freaked by the way my laptop was behaving, tho. Sort of expected the problem to be something . . . worse.

Can't get the hang of this "right-click." Probably could be worse. Actually, I think that staring at this monitor is giving me a headache, so maybe it can. Nothing that happy hour can't fix I think.
Happy birthday, Jonas! (That's my laptop, and according to all these warranties, today's his birthday.) Come back so I can post some reviews.

God this headache is getting worse. Killing my appetite, nothing sounds good. Weirdly steak tartar sounds fantastic but that's not exaclty chicken-noodle soup.
I really hope they send Jonas back before the weekend. It's too quiet without iTunes, and there's something unnatural about Windows.
Thursday
Rash, head going to explode. Fever. Scratch, scratch. I looked in the mirror, I don't look so good. Vvvvery hungry, don't want bad food. Want tasty food. No right-click. Want . . . brains.
But that's not right! But it feels right. . . .
Friuuuhhhr
uhhh . . . Jooo-naaas. . . .
Bit Sue before work, sorry, bit again, sorry. tasty-tasty. uhhhr, maybe she has Jooo-nnass. She won't tell me but she not sayin much now! Joonaasss . . . guess I'll eat some brains all weekend

Posted by: matty at June 20, 2005 3:55 PMThanks, Matty. For a while there I was afraid that the dearth of comments should be read as negative feedback. No longer: I'm still funny!
