@?!*&^^%!!!?!
So I had my MacBook out on a lapdesk propped on the armrest of the couch, so I could take advantage of the breeze coming from the window since my A/C is currently non-functional.
In the scant time it took me to walk to the fridge to grab my dinner, Oz - in the process of leaping from the couch to the windowsill - used my open MacBook as a stepping stone. Toppling it to the floor and slamming it shut.
The good news, as evident from my posting this, is that it still seems to be functioning. The bad news: I now have what looks like the pixelated equivalent of blue ink splotches along most of the bottom of my display, in one place a spike probably two inches long.
Something tells me this isn't going to be cheap to fix.
Goddamn cat.
And on a side note - so far it seems neither me nor little sis have come down with pig flu yet, so hopefully we're in the clear. Aside from not wanting to be laid up and vomiting, we both work with the public, and have no desire to pass it on to someone else.
