My computer is fixed! I can pick it up tomorrow! (Not that my son Deadboy's hasn't been useful and appreciated in the interval). But, YAY! My other son Pix says that being without your computer is sort of like being blind....
This is my NEW computer, the one I bought at the end of December, because my old one had a total eclipse of the motherboard or something (and still contains about a thousand photos, all my genealogy stuff, and the last half of my novel, but, Oh well. Perhaps we can still resurrect and transfer most of that, I hope) and dropped dead. They had to send the new one off to CALIFORNIA to fix the little CD door thingy that refused to open. It took FOREVER, well, two weeks. But it's fixed, and back! YAY!
About Me
- Joyce Ellen Davis
- 1. In dreams I am often young and thin with long blond hair. 2. In real life I am no longer young, or thin, or blonde. 3. My back hurts. 4. I hate to sleep alone. (Fortunately I don't have to!) 5. My great grandfather had 2 wives at once. 6. I wish I had more self-discipline. (I was once fired from a teaching position in a private school because they said I was "too unstructured and undisciplined." --Who, me??? Naaaahhh....) 7. I do not blame my parents for this. Once, at a parent-teacher conference, the teacher told me my little boy was "spacey." We ALL are, I told her. The whole fan damily is spacey. She thought I was kidding. I wasn't. 8. I used to travel with a theater reperatory company. My parents weren't happy about this. 9. My mother was afraid that I would run off and paint flowers on my cheeks and live in a commune, and grow vegetables. I once smoked pot. ONE TIME. 10. I don't drink or smoke. (Or swear, much. Well, I drink milk, and water, and orange juice, and stuff. Cocoa. I love Pepsi.) 11. Most of my friends are invisible. 12. I am a poet and a writer. All of my writing on these pages is copyrighted. Borrowing (without acknowledgment) is a sin.

my computer is my life line to my broader life.
It would be hard for me to be without it for too long.
PS... I'll try the NaMoBlog thingy.
I've been lacking in inspiration lately... but perhaps that what I need...a swift kick in the hind quaters..ey?
If January says we can do it, we can!
Maybe.
You can do it. And at the end of the month you'll have all of these buds of poetry to work with.
