new computer

[Tycos_mom]

So I finally broke down and bought myself a new computer. my other one is only a little over a year old but I have such a good little bird(Adaya) that loves to help me post new threads she always has something she wants to say. first she pulled the backspace key off so I said Ok i can live with that it still works just doesn't have a key anymore. Next it was the space bar that was really quit annoying to type with just a little button to push to put spaces in between my word but the Icing on the was my N key not only did she pull the key off she bit half the button off as well so to make the n work I had to push really hard. do you have any Idea how many words have the letter n I bought a new laptop I tryed a new key board but I just don't have the room for much on the side table next to my bed so I could only use the new key board when I was someplace that there was room for it. I was just more of a pain in the neck than anything so I bought a new one for myself. I think I deserve it but I'm haveing trouble with it. If I try to post a private message it will abort the whole site and I have to reopen it. I don't know why and I don't know how to fix it. I guess I'll figure it out eventually.

Don't you just love how our birdies love to help us with our posting and the ideas they come up with are mind boggling which is why I try to keep my two away from my computers. Sunny did manage to remove some of the keys off my laptop but I got them back on except one of the arrow keys is crooked, oh well I can live with that.

 

I can't help you with the problem with private messages, don't know what is going on there but something is just not right, maybe one of the geeks can help you out with that Pat.

Oh lucky you to get a new computer! Like many of you, I have three missing keys. The one I miss the most is the shift key for my left hand. Java found a way to snatch off the little rubber piece and sometimes my finger feels a little sting. I haven't figured out whether it is a tiny shock or just heat from the metal backing. I have decided to go to the beauty shop supply to get an acrylic box to put the remotes in before Juno comes and I think I will get an acrylic cover to put over my keys when I walk away. I understand there is a cover you can get to put over the keys, it might keep a bird out for twenty extra seconds. I will see what I can find for an acrylic protective cover that I could flip up to the screen when I type.

What is it with these keys!!! Harvey will sit with me and eye up the keyboard - there's plenty of other distractions, but the keyboard wins every time.

 

Just a little hint Pat - perhaps you could encase your hands and the keyboard in chicken wire and therefore those naughty babies can't reach the keys - yeah, you'd look silly, but those keys would stay intact!!!! :laugh:

Congrats on the new laptop Pat! In the beginning Ana Grey tried to help me type but I kiboshed that pronto. You do know the important things you need to type about don't have n's in them--like: Jeepers, Tyco, Darius and Adaya so you really should be good to go!!!! :laugh:
