It's about 2:30 and I'm just done working mentally. I need rest my brainwaves. Not that I'm using many for the job I'm doing, but shhh! I must've been bitten by a writing bug. I can't keep myself away from blogging. I guess that's how it always starts, isn't it? I'm at another office today and they gave me a cute little IBM ThinkPad to work on. I feel much more at home on a laptop. To me, desktops are now the equivalent of those enormous prehistoric computers from the Dark Ages and laptops are the Renaissance. I am very aware that new desktops are just as up-to-date as any laptop around, but they are so cumbersome. It's the college student in me, I've got travel and mobility in mind when I buy things.
As laptops go, my personal laptop is about as cumbersome as one can get without being one of those bricks from the early 90s. I wanted the large widescreen so that I can watch DVDs and it's fantastic for that, but the next one I purchase will be as small as I can get it (iPhone anyone?). I'm to the point now where I can afford an ok television and cheap DVD player, and will be even more so when I get around to affording a new laptop. Mine is a Toshiba that is a little over 2 years old and despite a few scratches and permanent imprints where I rest my wrists it is in great shape. I need to go through and clear off some old stuff and back up all of my music (I have all of the important school stuff backed up). The amount of free memory is dwindling. I'm guessing that ripping 4 Harry Potter audiobooks didn't help.
Now I have no clue how this became a post about computers, but I guess I really had no intentions for this post. That's the great thing about just wanting to write. It's fun to see what results from inspiration and to figure out how it happened. Well, I guess I've wasted enough company time as it is. From the looks of how this has been going, I'll post again tomorrow.
