I'm so easy.
For Father's Day I received the second best writing accessory ever.
I've posted previously about the Brother laser printer.
The next item in my toolbox is my laptop lap desk. It's just a piece of durable plastic with some unobtrusive padding underneath.
And this, my friends, prevents my lap from BURSTING INTO FLAMES FROM THE HEATED LAPTOP BLOODY HELL IS DELL TRYING TO BURN MY PRIVATES OFF?!?!?
Literally, my endurance, for sitting in The Overstuffed Green Chair Of Love Next to My Gorgeous Piano, which is also next to The Window to Outside with a Nice View of the Yard, has practically doubled.
How did I ever work without one?
I love you laptop lap desk. I love you very much. And thank you for saving my nether bits from overheating in my shorts.

Those people at Dell. I knew they were twisted.
ReplyDeleteReally, though, a good item to have :)
My laptop desk has cooling fans built into it as well as some extra USB ports - I love it.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of overheating, did you hear about the exploding Ipods?
There was an article online a couple of years ago about a man who gave himself 1st degree burns down there - so glad you've been spared!
ReplyDeleteJust be glad that you don't have one of the exploding laptops. That would leave a mark :-)
ReplyDeleteI sooo need this! Last night I wanted to take a bath in Neosporin after a particularly long writing session. Where did you get the fabulous laptop lap table?
ReplyDelete@Amanda: My wife ordered it from Amazon, I believe. The link is in the post.
