Spaghetti

He was told not to eat by the computer. He must have been told this about 1000 times, but as with most kids persistence prevails. After the 1001st time you get tired of saying it and give up. At least that's what I did. Besides, nothing happened the other 1000 times so why make a big deal out of it?

Spaghetti.... that's why. By the time he realized what was happening, it had spilled all over the keyboard... hot, steaming, acidy, spaghetti.

Until then, I never realized how much spaghetti could change my life. Even though I had not updated my site or blogged for a long, long time, I took it for granted that I would always be able to whenever I wanted. Now I'm at the mercy of time and finances before I can get another keyboad and reconnect with the world.

I guess if there's a lesson learned and if I could do things differently, I would have made sandwiches that night.
