I spend regular bursts of days away from electricity, not to mention internet, and it restores me so deeply I wish everyone could have it. But there is no way now I could do my job without a computer and internet connection. Used to be able to but not for years now.

I’d Sleep. I actually lost my laptop the same way at the height of the Pandy. Ive been without since and am looking finally for a new one. I hate not having one and I love not having one. Which squarely puts this in the classical sense right up there with the lovely paradoxes of living on this planet as a human. I know I’d be better off without a laptop but I know I’d be better off with a laptop. To be or not to be. Damn it I just want to sleep.

Oh my gosh this just happened to us! My husband's computer was from 2011, and I'd gotten a Chromebook in a moment of feeling frugal 6 years ago. His DIED and he was working on stuff for his art exhibition. We got renovated computers at a local Mac store. Had to do it. They're good! Whew. Good luck on this upcoming month. You'll be okay. Probably.
