My laptop is broken, possibly beyond hope of repair (the guy at the consignment shop says he doesn't know but he will take it apart and poke it and see), and my car is making funny noises and lighting up a thing on the dashboard that looks like either a camcorder or an alien in profile.
Rather than get annoyed that this is happening when I have reams of schoolwork to make up and a sick fiance in the next city, I am choosing to see it as a blessing that these things are happening now, when I know the guy at the consignment shop and have a computer I can borrow and people who can pick me up from the car shop, instead of in Florida, and also that I have (had?) a laptop and a car at all.
