SOS

I have it on good authority that my laptop is the crappiest piece of machinery ever manufactured. I just spent the last 45 minutes trying to get it to turn back on after it randomly shut off while I was on Facebook. Seriously, what kind of computer can't handle Facebook? Anyway, this technological terror is a ticking time-bomb so I figured I'd better post something while I still have access to the civilized equipment to which I'm quite attached (one could even call it "manic dependence" with only a slight hint of exaggeration).

I made Italian-herb chicken and alfredo sauce tonight and served it (to myself?) over spinach. Please try to look past my slight arrogance as I proclaim that it was absolutely fantastic! Tomorrow night I will attempt a crock-pot chicken recipe slathered in a mock-BBQ sauce made of ketchup and Diet Coke. I'm super avant-garde in my approach to cuisine and I just love that!

And speaking of love! Last night I lit a candle, got under my covers, and wrote an expose of the main character in a short story that's floating around in my head in the lovely journal that Stef gave me for Christmas. Really, I don't think I'd be half as inclined to write the old-fashioned way if I didn't have a pretty journal to fill up. Oh, did I mention that I was drinking honey-chamomile bedtime tea the whole time? No? Well I was and it was scrumptious. I've been looking forward to bedtime all day, mostly because I am a lazy bum, but also because I want some more of that tea!

If my computer bursts into flames upon publication of this post, know that I leave you all with my deepest regards and affections. It's been real!
