3 Days Without…


 


Without food, and hungry I would be,


Without sleep, and deprived I would be,


Without sex, well what else is new, hee-hee,


Without water, I would surely dry up,


Without air and I would be dead, but that you knew…


 


But it is without my computer I herein discuss,


It broke on Sunday night, could you here me cuss?


This damn thing, it worked fine in the morning,


What the hell happened to it between then & that night?


 


Well, I found just how really addicted to it I most certainly am,


The first day, complaining, bitching and the ever-present whine,


Not to mention of course the usual pain in the spine, moan,


All because of my lack of a computer in my home…


 


What a big baby I can be, to worry about the fate of an HP,


She is back now, as you can plainly see,


But I am still leery, worried that it might die again,


What will happen then if it were to do so?


Just more bitching, more moaning, more “wine”, the red kind,


Gotta stay drunk,


From the time it leaves till the time it returns, at least in my mind…

So great a talent to be able to put words together like these at the drop of a moment when something does not work. You sound like you have good faith and lots of it.
