it’s common knowledge that i have the worst computer in the history of the world here at work. it’s just old, and well i always seem to get overlooked when it comes to new computer time. but not anymore! i’m getting a new computer and now i have to constantly bug james with “is it here yet!”
today we were talking about the new computer and i started getting a little melancholy.
“i’m gonna miss this old beast when the new one comes,” i said. “i’ve kind of grown attached to the grinding sound it makes whenever i ask it to do something. it’s kind of comforting.”
“the new one won’t be grinding,” he said.
“geez, i’ve had this thing for three years.”
“that’s a long time.”
“i think it’s my longest relationship ever.”
then the newguy started laughing so hard we had to stop.
