Usually I love my computer to bits. I even named him and everything. But recently poor Bernard is giving me a lot of grief. A few days ago, one of my friends spilled tea on the keyboard, so I did the right thing. I turned the computer off and left it to dry for a few days. And I got one of my other friends to check under the keyboard to make sure that the it had completely dried out before using it again.

The problem was, when I turned the computer back on, all the keys from 'o' over (to the right) didn't work. I'd been having problems with my arrow keys for a few months, but that didn't matter. That's what a mouse is for. But I need 'o'. I need semi-colons and colons and commas, and most importantly, I need full-stops. My job involves writing stuff, after all. So my options are to get Bernard fixed up, or learn to write in leet, really quickly.

At least [livejournal.com profile] catpuccino and [livejournal.com profile] angel_cc both have computers I can use until Bernard becomes de-paralysed.

Bernard is an excellent name! It's with the emphasis on the first syllable, right? Good luck getting it fixed.

Yeah, on the first syllable. It's at the repair shop as I write, and apparently won't be ready until Wednesday, which is just killing me.

I got a new keyboard and am typing at Bernard right now. I made a mistake with the birthday on lj, somehow, and my birthday is not until the 20th, actually. But see you on Christmas Day and thanks for the birthday wishes!
