Is a funeral appropriate?

 My computer is dying.  I think it is on its last legs.  It does not shut down properly anymore, and it really does some weird freezing up stuff.  I suppose it is only to be expected, after all it is old.  Really old.  I don't want to say how old, because it is embarrassingly old.

Recently the monitor died.  Full on died.  I think there was a death rattle.

But the computer itself is wheezing and coughing, and I think it is finally sucumbing to the tuberculosis of computers.  Sob.

So I just backed up all of my important data, and now I suppose I just have to be grateful for every day that it continues to function.  Who knew I could feel so depressed by a stupid computer?  I like Lola.  She's been a good computer.

I feel rambling and stupid.  I think it's time to go to bed and forget about my computer and instead worry about sleep.  I hope I don't dream about the computer.  That would be lame, don't you think?  Yeah, I think.
