I returned home after an afternoon at IKEA with Sofia (yes I know - another addiction to add to the list, but I only bought merigolds and washing-up brushes for around £2) at around 7. Needed to do something on line before starting on dinner - I therfore tuched my computer. It shut down immediately and I swore remembering all the problems I've had with my cable and battery this summer. I fiddled with the cable and attempted to start the computer when I felt a faint waff of something burning. A pressed my nose against my laptop and turned it slightly. The smell grew stronger and I saw smoke coming out of the fan hole. Aghhhhh!!! I quickly pulled out all cables and later I thought of removing the battery. But I am feeling a bit discouraged. A new computer? Repairs - possible, priceworthy? Internet?!? But I'll wait for Linus to get here before I do anything more about it. Anyhoo, I'm off to Orust on the western Swedish coast for a weekend with Lovisa so it doesn't matter THAT much right now. And my wonderful friend Sofia made lkife easier by lending me her laptop. Yeay! So at least I have an internet connection.
Maybe this is the excuse I needed to get a MacBook... Things are looking brighter!

Thanks for reviving the blog! Lunch at work is interesting again!
Thank you. I hope so too.
Revival... too much of a promise. We'll see how long I last. Glad at least to be of interest to someone with my writing.
