My laptop is dead. Dead. Dead. dead.
Okay not really dead, but with the run around best buy and Hp have been giving my less these tech saavy mother, it minus well be a death.
A moment of silence please.
So the problem still happens to be that my monitor won't come on. As far as they know, my computer memory(lets hope) still functions, but the cost of fixing the LCD light/monitor/hoopla is 600!!!!!!. 1/2 the original cost of the damn thing.
My mom instant reaction was "i've been saving some money and why don't we just get you a new one" Sounds good right. By new she means something around half the cost of my current laptop.
My first reaction to this news was not a pleasant one. I could either get an A) less expensive laptop without all the cool perks and speed, and general coolness of my current one. or B) stick with my old one, hopefully have all my saved documents on it, and live happily ever after. I am hoping for Plan B.
The thought of losing all that work and having a almost functionally computer lay around the house, collecting dust and the probing hands of my "maybe if i poke it, it will work" mother, is not the best alternative.
I want MY laptop back. With animal cracker crumbs between the keys. I want all my unfinsihed scripts back.I WANT my iTunes and 40- 50 songs and 2 videos i bought, along with almost 1500 songs.
I don't want to be a Joni Mitchell lyric. Cause i know and appreciate what i have now. F*cking Barnes and Noble Guy, if i just would have stayed home and not tried to be all cute my computer would not be in this mess.
I'll fight for it, like i fought for my room. I'm feeling kind of down now.Like a punished child. Like something i did made this whole mess more worse than it should have been. I know thats absurd, but let me wallow for a while.
And forgive me for the pic. Hot JRM face can only soothe me right now.

Yes, a pretty boy picture does, truly, soothe any bad problem...even one as horrible as a laptop death. Sorry for your loss.
i am sorry about this. i was very distraught when my old computer - desktop - dropped dead. i never got my files off that one...it was just that dead.
good luck.
animal crackers are the best.
Man.... that is tragic.
At least it gives you an excuse to ask cute guys to check your e-mail on their computer!
