ok lol, i've booked a repair for my laptop.
surprisingly straightforward once i found the phone number, which was really not straightforward. If you ever need a UK repair for a Lenovo laptop that you bought cover for this is the number: +44 333 777 3991
all the e-mails i've received about the repair have been from ibm e-mail addresses, which is weird
abe just met a mouse in the bathroom. it was sitting completely still with its
eyes closed. we put it in a planter, wrapped it in a rug and then brought it to
the park where we released it.
it just sat there in the park, completely still with its eyes now open. I saw it blink once. I asked it a lot of questions, but it didn't move
we've come back in now
checking deliveroo to see if the sainsburys i’m about to walk to has celeriac
lmao
accidental damage
There was someone with a voice I didn't recognise laughing in the hallway outside my apartment; they had a really strange laugh. While I was trying to process this strange new clown enemy, a wasp flew at me. I really can't handle wasps; I have a phobia. In a panic state I swung out at the great beast with whatever was in my hands: my Lenovo Thinkpad T14s (Gen1).
It crashed against the door and the screen came off its hinge.
EPILOGUE
My windows were closed all day yesterday, the wasp must have been inside a long time. I found it this morning in the kitchen. It was crawling around on the radiator, trying to scale a bottle of aloe vera hand sanitizer.
Each time it would get a little further, and then fall back to the radiator. Sometimes it fell through the holes in the radiator and had to climb all the way back up the internals.
So small it seemed now, the great beast of yesterday, I chose to spare it. Opening the kitchen window, watching the tiny pitiable creature muster enough strength to fly out into the morning sun, I must admit, I felt a little tinge of hope.
