holding out for a hero

It’s been getting steadily worse, and lately I have found myself being a bit shouty and sweary. I bought this vaio laptop about two years ago and it is full of photos, writing, memories; it’s my umbilical chord to the bloggy universe. Clearly, it also clearly contained a crap load of applications and whirring, clicky things I didn’t need. I mentioned to Science Guy that I have laptop performance issues, and he spun around really quickly and was suddenly wearing a rather fetching spandex outfit. ‘We’ll soon have it up and running little lady’ he said, in quite a manly manner. The result is the technical equivalent of a barium enema. My laptop is whizzier and bangier than ever.

And you know, being independent and self-sufficient and stuff is all very well, but I have to admit that witnessing such manly fix-it powers made me feel a bit funny in my pants.
