Yay! This is my first post from my new computer. (Wow. It just autocorrected as I am typing this post!)
John has been trying to talk me into a notebook (laptop) computer for years, knowingly I secretly and not so secretly wanted one. And I finally got one. It is sort of a Christmas present, bearing in mind that we usually end up buying things this time of year that we really need and don't have the money or nerve to buy during the rest of the year. For me, it was a toss-up between the computer and a tiller. The computer will get MUCH more use. LOL
I am just getting used to the keyboard. Notebook keyboards are so weird. John got his first notebook computer about ten years ago and we nicknamed the keyboard the DCK (damn chicklet keyboard.) Pardon the language, but there you go. History is often not very pretty.
Gyah. Plus not all of the keys are in the right place. I like it, though. You know why I wanted it. So I could sit in the bed at night and read and type. That is just what I'm doing.
Also, I can go to project gutenberg and read books to my hearts content. You can turn the computer sideways, so that you are holding it like a book, and orient your screen ninety degrees so that the text is just like a book. Now, I feel like I have an endless library. I will never have to want for anything to read again.
