She's dead

That would be my PC Clarissa, who expired last night with a tremendous snap and smell of smoke. Some guy at Best Buy decided the power supply had exploded. My data should be salvageable, and hopefully in the next week I'll have a new computer that actually runs Blogger without complaining and I can update more regularly. Won't you all love that? So it is a blessing in disguise. Still, I mourn Clarissa, my first really-all-mine-and-not-just-borrowed computer. She was ramshackle but lovable.

RIP.

Did she also explain it all? If she was conntected to the Internet, I bet she explained it all.

She did! Although she was named after Mrs. Dalloway, for reasons that have been obscured by the mists of time. (Note to self: do not name appliances after protagonists of novels about mortality.) I was unaware of the Melissa Joan Hart connection. Art Boy will be excited.
