My MacBook bit me
21 Jan 2007
It’s true. The edges of my lovely wonderful MacBook are very sharp and the other day I moved my hand very quickly and it actually cut into my wrist.
I would take a photo for you but I am quite seriously lacking in the being bothered to take photos of minor injuries department. That and it’s really actually drastically disappointing. Also, it might not have been my MacBook after all. Could have been a flesh eating insect during the night or something.
Or it could have been my flesh eating MacBook during the night! That’s quite a fantastic hypothesis right there. Fantastic in that it’s complete fantasy, but also fantastic as in it would be the best thing ever if it were true.
These things could happen, you know. Until science has proven that they don’t, I’m not giving up hope.
Anyway, check it out. This is what my desk looked like at home during Christmas. I think you’ll agree: it’s pretty lush. It’s got everything! Coffee, two screens, some thank-you notes from Paperchase and a bunch of crap about from Nationwide about how they’ve been selling my details to Nigerian fraudsters on the sly*.
* Note: The bunch of crap was about how a laptop which had a bunch** of customer’s addresses got nicked. If Nationwide are selling my details to Nigerian fraudsters, they’ve got the good sense not to tell me about it. That’s the Nationwide way.
** Check it out: two bunches!

And a lamp! Don’t forget the lamp!
I got that from Nationwide too. Odd that they told me, as I think it is supposed to make me trust them more. Or something. They are different, though. Proud to be so!
