“I envy them their public love. I myself have only known it in secret, shared it in secret and longed, aw longed to show it – to be able to say out loud what they have no need to say at all: ‘That I have loved only you, surrendered my whole self reckless to you and nobody else. That I want you to love me back and show it to me. That I love the way you hold me, how close you let me be to you. That I love the way you hold me, how close you let me be to you. I like your fingers on and on, lifting, turning. I have watched your face for a long time now, and missed your eyes when you went away from me. Talking to you and hearing you answer – that’s the kick.’
Toni Morrison “Jazz”

I know I have a blog. My hard drive crashed and all my bookmarks are gone and a bunch of data was lost. Le sigh! So now I’m trying to rebuild the last 3 years of computer-ness and it’s taking longer than expected. So here, have a picture of my cat.

Don’t call it a come back, I’ve been here for years…

So I got this new keyboard, an Apple wireless keyboard to be exact. I went to Best Buy today in search of one, I looked at all the other ones but they’re HUGE and the whole reason I wanted the Apple one is because of its size. So I picked one up to buy it and, being ever so slightly OCD, I picked up every one in the pile just in case (or something). I ended up with one in my hands that had been like returned so it was discounted but it didn’t say how MUCH it was so I found a guy I had been talking to before and asked him. He was like “How much is it usually? $79? How about $59?”… Uhm, how about YES? So, that was pretty sweet. Special thanks to best buy dude with the Leonidas goatee.

So here I am with my new keyboard! It’s so small and… cute! I love it, but it DOES take some getting used to.

I also moved my bed around and put my mac on a little bedside table which is WHY I needed a smaller keyboard. I also would love a wireless mouse but I’m going to seek out a CHEAPER option than the wireless Mighty Mouse. They’re are waaay more options for wireless mice than wireless keyboards. So I figured I’d hold off.

I have about fifteen loads of laundry to do now though, but all I want to do is sit here and type on my keyboard!
