The only thing that can save my computer now is a trip to Miracle Max and a noble cause. But since Miracle Max is off tending a paper cut and my noble cause involves saving my own skin, I trudge dejectedly up to the school library to try to finish off the draft of chapter one.
My computer is my life. My life just died. There is a Mac store not too far from me, so perhaps the miracle is just around the corner, but driving to the Mac store will eat up precious time I don't have.

Bye, bye, miss [Apple] pie....
PS This particular specimen of Mac-ness was running onto four years, which is pretty much the end of the line for any computer, and therefore does not reflect on the quality of Apple.

I wouldn't go so far as to say that my computer is my life, but it comes pretty close.

However, my dad is Miracle Max himself!
