*NSFW* My Laptop is OLD
My laptop is OLD as FUCK.
So now that I finally have a nice desk to work on my blog on my laptop, I have come to the realization that, well, my laptop is OLD as FUCK. The battery is shot, so I can't use it without keeping it plugged in. It takes too long to load any of the programs. The tracking pad (mouse) is beyond crappy. So, yeah, OLD as FUCK.
When I first got it, it was kinda zippy. Now that I've had it for a few years (give or take a couple years), it is not as good. I deal with it with some patience, and maybe some booze, because, hello, extremely fucking aggravating. It is certainly maddening that I can't do even the basic shit without a struggle, but it's par for the course. My only hope is that when I am finally able to get the podcast off the ground, it will make me some money so I can pick up a working replacement for this old girl. And maybe allow me to quit my job. I don't know. It's not much to ask for something less crappy to be able to ply my craft without issues. Such is my life. Nothing ever works out how I plan. Especially when I try to type up an entry and my fingers grace the trackpad.
So yes, I am a bit aggravated now. More so that I ran out of booze than the old laptop sitch. It would be nice if I had a strong drink so I can get some enjoyment out of writing a post. I can settle for a mug of coffee, but it would be nice if I could add some Bailey's to it.
Small victories and fluffy bunnies. Much love y'all.
