Finger Drumming

Another live update from Planet DFMamea.

Finished a draft earlier this afternoon, saved it, did a quickie back-up of all my working directories and documents to a flash drive – and the Powerbook had a bit of a kernel panic:

Time for a full backup. Forty-five minutes, it said. That was an hour ago. In that time I’ve played fetch with The Dog, re-upped The Chickens, and picked up WALL-E for some family Friday night viewing. (The children have seen it, us adults haven’t – and since we adults are paying, we choose.) I also reported an idiot on a Vespa.

Meantime, the backup’s been sitting at 25 minutes for the past ten minutes.

Scratch that: sixteen minutes, it says now.

Suppose I could power up the Windoze laptop.

But would I still feel like A WRITER?
