Ode To a New Laptop

by icywoods

Laptop, at first I did not notice you. You were just sitting there when I arrived home this afternoon, your box open and its papers and little egg carton like things partially exposed. Then I saw you. I fairly screamed. Big. That is what I will say about you, Laptop. You are like the raw wellfed farmboy of laptops. But smart, real smart, in that way that says, Hey, I got what I got where you need me to have it, and I ain’t gonna flaunt it til you come lookin. So we’re on a little cat and mouse game here. I am running my fingers all over your keys, searching with my mouse here and there to see what it makes you do, what you’ll show me, where you’ll take me. And you got some tricks up your sleeve, yes you do. I’m up at 3 a.m. fooling with you, and still haven’t figured out a whole lot. But I am a patient woman. And you are a sweet straight out of the box new toy. I think we are going to have us some fun!
