When You Admit Your Laptop Is Terminally Ill

This is the last post I'll write on my current laptop. Jerrica has been my steady companion for the last eight years and seven months, but alas, I need to admit her days are numbered.

She's served me faithfully. I haven't abused her by spilling drinks on her or dropping her. She's been loved and cared for, and in return, she's helped me write nearly sixty books.

Unfortunately, the Ctrl key no longer works. Her battery is dead. Keys and the touchpad are misaligned. And worst of all, she's bluescreened on me twice in the last year.

So long, Jerrica. We were great friends, and you will be missed.
