a glitch in the matrix

My closest friend and confidante, aka this 5 yr old Apple Powerbook, needs a lil T L C.

Old man river here likes to make a superloud superannoying whirring/dying/grinding/gagging noise..oh..I would say..CONSTANTLY?

AND SO: it's time to go to the laptopspital.
24 hours without it. Starting now.

At first I think I will act ok.
Then I might start to shake.
Then I will try to check Twitter on my composition notebook and become enraged when there are no updates.
Then I will shout WHY CAN'T YOU BE MORE LIKE YOUR OLDER BROTHER? at my iPhone.
Then I will run to the Apple store on Ninth Ave and press my face up against the glass and mouth ILOVEYOUILOVEYOUILOVEYOU over and over again.

Ought to be a good time!

SEE YOU IN 24 HOURS!
