OH NOES. Um, here, just pretend there's an "except for this line" at the end of that. There. All better.

The Traumatic Spider Incident was the time when I was up extra-late studying with my laptops balanced on my lap. I saw a huge spider crawling up my leg, freaked out, and dropped my laptop, breaking the bulb behind the screen. I had to shine a flashlight at the screen and try to e-mail the document I was working on to myself so I could still get it done by 5 p.m. that afternoon when it was due. The fact that it was about four in the morning, I hadn't slept in days, and I might have hallucinated the spider didn't make me feel any better.

I remember the Traumatic Spider Incident. ::nods sagely::

I wish you victory in your Battle to Slay the Insidious Webernet Virus.

Dad in his wonder has found a way to perform a System Restore without completely wiping the drive, so we'll see if that works. It'd be less complicated than resetting the whole system.

Oh yeah, and Martha wouldn't be in danger from-- oh wait, you haven't seen the Torchwood episode "Reset." So my Martha-laden allusion will make no sense to you. Nope. No Martha for you.

I've probably already been spoiled for it; you might as well just say it.

And anyway, I have plenty of Martha over here in my stubborn no-spinoffs-yet corner, so there.

*gasps* My sympathies.

...and that reply was hideously ungrammatical; I just realized. Should be more careful about that.

The repairs were covered by the warranty, and I only had to spend a few days laptopless, so in retrospect it wasn't that bad. But I never did find that spider. 8(
