jerry's giving me his laptop

Jerry rocks.

I feel blessed to have a best friend who feels that I am the appropriate receiver of his unused electrical goods. I mean, I hardly ever use the minidisc either, but I do like it. It's sexy and blue. It also came with Tom Waits and Erykah Badu for my listening pleasure. These things matter to me.

But, a laptop means I will be able to do whatever I want with a computer- on Mike's I am not authorized to download or customize much- whenever I want. Sure, I still pine for that iBook, but it's gonna be years before I can afford that shit. Best to go with the generous gifts of someone you love. And I really do love him. :)

Perhaps I'll be able to pay it back to him someday. A plane ticket to see me perhaps?
