R.I.P....

It's official, my laptop has passed on to the realm of useless plastic... Fortunately my documents, pictures and even internet favorites were retrievable.

Below is a photo taken during Miss Ohio week, in which I had but a moment with my laptop in my parent's hotel room; the pouting face* in this photo is horrible forshadowing, isn't it?!

*Items like laptops, cell phones, pagers, etc. are strictly forbidden during daily Miss Ohio activities; contestants may have them only at their host home, but you're only at the host home long enough to sleep. So most women feel stressfully detached from the "real" and their normal world, thus my face in the picture.
