Short Notice


I’m so sorry to say this but my lappy, Slick, had to go into the Lappy Hospital. I have limited access to another computer and it’s basically capable of checking email and making weird, growly noises at me. I’m unable to check blogs. =*[

Just know that I’m thinking of you all, missing you, and will be back soon!

All my best,

L.T.

p.s. I just came back from the amazing LTUE symposium/conference and I’ll be sure to fill you in ASAP!

Just for the record: This is the 2nd computer in a row that we have had issues with from manufacturer-that-shall-not-be-named.

For those of you at home that are keeping track, here is the story so far:
Got new lappy!
Lappy had issues with HD.
Got replacement parts! Yeah!
Lappy was fine for a while.
Lappy had more issues.
Sent computer in for repair.
Had more issues.
They sent us new computer to replace the old...
Now new computer has issues...

Man, I am never buying an HP again.

How frustrating for you guys! And for ME. Because really, that's who is most tragically affected by your net absence dontchaknow. The nerve of HP messing with my happiness like this!

I'm tempted to write a letter!

With lots of exclamation marks in!!

!!!

Mary Campbell said...

so sorry about your lappy - I'll miss you. So fun to hang with you this weekend.

Yeah, HP is definitely shortlisted for the dumpster around here, too. We'll all fast and pray for a speedy return to the land of the blogging.

This news is most discouraging... for Christmas this past year, my blushing bride and I both got each other HP laptops... this news is not a good premonition for our future.

I hope your laptop is revived soon! (and I hope mine doesn't die...)

Eeeek!! Sorry to hear about that :(
Computer issues are the pits!
Hope things are resolved for you soon.

On another note, it was great seeing you at LTUE! What a terrific conference!!

Carolyn V. said...

Lappy is sick again? That makes me so sad! I will miss you. =(

Melanie Jacobson said...

Oh, my Dell TOTALLY sucks so don't get one of those, either. The list is long and annoying of problems it has given me in the last two years.

Sorry you're having laptop issues but I look forward to hearing about LTUE.

Poor Slick, I hope he's all right. Will be thinking of you while you and Slick are away. :)

Kimberly Job said...

Your online presence will definitely be missed.

Terresa said...

Here this, "other computer" -- absolutely no growly noises at LT, hear me? Or I'll have to throw some chocolate at you!!

I miss you! Come back soon, and let do lunch the last week in Feb. :)

This gives me time to catch up on your blog! I came across it from Shooting Stars blog and I love finding new blog buddies!!!

Debbie said...

Oh no! I hope your lappy is well soon. I hate computer ills.

I hope your laptop gets feeling better! Can't wait to hear about LTUE--it sounded fantastic.

Bummer. I hate that you have to go through this. Best wishes for a speedy recovery, for you and lappy!

So sorry about your laptop. I really feel for you! I was in a similar situation earlier this month. Hope you are back to blogging soon!

Hope you're back soon!

Sorry about your laptop. I hate when computers go bad.

When you get back, there is an award waiting for you on my blog.

Julie Wright said...

I hate it when things break down. Good luck with a speedy recovery

BigLittleWolf said...

Hoping your laptop is better (am waiting for my personal Laptop Fixer, a.k.a. Techno-College-Kid, to do serious surgery on mine during his Spring Break).

Enjoying your blog, and all things writerly!

Tess said...

argh! poor lappy! take this time to do all those things you always push aside (or at least I do) like baking cookies w/ the kiddos and building a fort under the kitchen table :D :D
