<3 means something
I love the internet and computers.
One weekend without a computer brought me back to the old days of imagination, where I'd have to make up stories w/action figures and run around in the forest avoiding scary monsters. I realized a few months back that I can no longer play with toys the way I used to (a sad fact), even though now I can finally afford to collect them with something better than my $2.5 weekly allowance. Now I'm realizing that those days of imagination and wonder are over, too, and I really need stimulation from a machine. Badly.
Internet/computer/gaming culture is to me what sports are to the rest of my family...with the exception of Leah, who is into....god knows what. I was really disappointed that I couldn't fix my new Mac and had to finally throw in the towel, taking it to a service place. I tell computer people that I'm not a 'computer person', but everybody that loves sports and has minimal knowledge of the internet calls me one. It's just like being good with cars - they're a necessary tool that you should probably know more about! Why can't we all service them? I guess we're just not interested/dedicated enough.
This leads me to the conclusion that: I love computers. And the internet, who lubs ya? ME
