Anything happen while I was gone?

Two weeks ago, my laptop took a big, steaming dump. Stupid thing.

Much as I would have LOVED to just buy a new one, such things aren't possible. But, Apple was nice about it (shockingly enough). For a flat fee of $300, I got a new logic board and a new AirPort card -- repairs that, if I'd tried to have some "authorized reseller" do them, would have cost me almost $1,000.

Sometimes, when something sucks to a much smaller degree than you anticipated, you can feel really lucky.

And now I'm here, on my couch, happily typing away.

Normalcy is seeping back. Boy, am I happy to see it.
