Being able to turn on my computer without wanting to cry and/or toss it out of the window and/or wanting to put my fist through the monitor is really quite priceless.
Welcome, little guy.
It doesn’t have a name yet so suggestions would be helpful.
(Also, that bed that it’s on is brand new too. As is the mattress. Am now officially broke and donations to the ‘Heather B. will need to eat at some point this week’, fund are being accepted now. They’re also tax detuctible.)

Tis a beautiful thing!
kerrianne says:
Very pretty, indeed. And names, hmmm. I’ll get to thinking. And maybe some drinking, too. I think that might help.
Lux Lisbon says:
Love the exposed brick.
Milton perhaps?
LisaBinDaCity says:
Congrats! I love getting a new computer. And a bed too! Who needs food?
Heather B. says:
Angela: Thanks! I think so too.
Kerianne: Some drinking definitely might help. It’s crazy when you start buying things for yourself and suddenly you realize how much things cost. Did y’all know how expensive a mattress is???? Lord.
Lux: Thanks, that my favorite part of my bedroom. oooh Milton, I’m actually watching Office Space right now, crazy.
LisaB: exactly! I can go without food for awhile. It’s al good.
Dagny says:
A new laptop and a new bed? Definitely cool. Also, LisaB’s right. You don’t need food, but you might need wine.

So I’m watching the Today Show a month back or so, and they have a segment on whether or not extended warranties are a gimmick. Long story short, they said to pass in all cases except for Apple computers.
I’ve never had a problem w/ mine, but caveat emptor.
Janet says:
Lovely! I’d name her Pink Lady or Smith.
Angela says:
Ooh, I really excel at naming inanimate objects, if I do say so myself.
Personally, I think he looks like an Arnold or a Sven. But that’s just my two cents.
Liz says:
Awesome. With the new bed and laptop, all you have to do is put a vat of wine next to the headboard, get a really long straw, and you’ll never have to leave the bed again.
Except to go to the bathroom. And work. And never mind, the fantasy is just that.
p.s. I vote that you name it Bordeaux.
Heather B. says:
Bordeaux it is.
I literally sat upright when I saw that.
Henceforth my laptop shall be called Bordeaux Smith. I feel like it deserves both a first and last name.
Welcome to my world, Bordeaux.
