My computer

My computer is sometimes very temperamental. Sometimes, it loads onto the Internet or Microsoft Office Word in a heartbeat, and other times its...many heartbeats. I suppose that is to be expected, though, considering it crashed this spring. I travelled to Europe over Spring Break with the Champlin Park band, and when I returned, the first thing my brother said to me was, "Your computer crashed."
Lovely. All of my many documents that had taken so many hours to write...gone. Thankfully, my mom took it to someone who was able to repair and save all of my lost data. Still, my laptop is running on a short life expectancy. Any day now, it might croak. I hope it doesn't, because I've grown rather attached to it. I even gave it a name. Although, I wouldn't mind actually being able to email or work on my paper without the screen suddenly seizing and refusing to let me type. It would be nice to make it through a whole document without sitting there with waning patience as my poor computer struggles to process the words I have just entered into its keyboard. I will use it until it dies, and then, I guess it will be time to start the whole process over again. And pick a new name for the new laptop.
