Time is the enemy of us all, but lately it’s been the enemy of my novel-writing.

Five weeks and counting, and my desktop PC still isn’t back from Best Buy because they keep not fixing it completely. If one more thing goes wrong, I actually qualify for their “no lemon” policy and get a new computer out of the deal, although I’d be just as happy if they could fix the one I have so it works right and stops breaking down.

Of course, getting a new PC out of it would be OK, too, since it’d have Windows 7 on it and that would maybe fix some of the problems, though I wouldn’t bet my car insurance on that.

So, I’m still on my sloggy old laptop for now… which means it takes longer to do everything and I run out of time…
