I want to have sex with my new laptop.

It scans my fingerprint with a tiny fingerprint scanner. It's running The Sims 2, Semagic, and three browser windows and the little CPU meter widget is barely clocking 45 percent. It's coasting away like a happy young wildebeest calf (Yes, I watched that David Attenborough doco tonight about the wildebeest Mum and bub).

*happy sigh* Sometimes it's worth paying extra for things. Laptops are invariably the case.

Oh, I decided it's a she. Her name is Athena Cortana.

Athena - Greek Goddess of Wisdom, War and Weaving and Cortana from Halo?

Wowzers. That sounds awesome. My baby is jealous.

You realise that I just read a fucking awesome H/HR fic, and with JKR's gentler stance on H/Hr (It COULD have happened) I'm suddenly feeling TOTALLY open to writing HP fic again, yes?

OH MY GOD AM I IN THE MOOD. HARRIET AHOY!

OMG, wow! That's fantastic news. (PS, when did she have a gentler stance? I HAVE been out of the loop.)

My laptop is called Delilah.

Playing the Sims 2 on a new, capable computer is a beautiful experience.

It never ceases to amaze me.

I'm waiting to see if it handles the caustics. I've wanted to have a beautiful, shimmering pool for AGES.
