Ok, that’s just a nicer way of saying that clumsy nunly had managed to spill a good amount of her canned La Croix seltzer water on her laptop computer over the weekend. For now, we’re trying to let it dry out on it’s own, and although I can peruse the web now, which I couldn’t do yesterday, I still can’t type anything because half my keyboard doesn’t work. I’ll give it another week, and if it’s still out, I’ll have to bring it in to be repaired (probably replace the keyboard).
That said, this is one of the reasons I’ve fallen silent on this blog and yours. I can’t type anything in your comment sections unless you don’t mind getting a message like this: I hgblsilho agrii. So, I’m reduced to coming down to the dungeon and use my husband’s pc. I really hate this computer because it has one of the keyboards that are supposed to help keep you from getting carpal tunnel syndrome, but in reality, the keys are off just enough to make it a royal pain in the wimple to type. Not to mention, it’s damned cold in this basement. Although finished, it’s always cold down here, which is fine for my husband because he’s a snake. Ok….not really. I should be nice. I get mean when I’m cold.
So, most of the time I’ll be reading your blogs and if I try to leave a garbled message, just assume it’s a snide comment, a comment in agreement, or I had a stroke. I can get down to the basement in the morning and sometimes in the evening if my husband is hogging it. The rest of the day I have to be upstairs where the dirty laundry and dishes are waiting for me. It wouldn’t kill me to vacuum either.
Have a good day, and keep your drinks away from your keyboard. Or, keep me away from your keyboard. 
Oh….and for those asking, I have not been invited to the Conclave, nor do I have a snowball’s chance in hell of becoming Pope or anything else in the Catholic hierarchy…..which in my opinion is a smart move. Could you imagine how much I could screw up the Vatican when I can’t even drink soda water and blog at the same time??
Love you all,
Nunly
I came close to having that happen a few days ago when I didn’t notice the coaster had stuck to the bottom of a full cup of tea. When it dropped off it startled me enough that I slopped hot tea on the laptop. Happily, my wear only at home skirt makes a very good emergency towel so I only lost qwert and some numbers for a little while. I don’t like using the alternate computer either but at least it’s not in a cold basement.
Hmm, I was imagining the Vatican had called you in to whisper advice through the Sistine Chapel’s air vents.
For dungeon delving, get a beer hat. Don’t have to drink American swill, but it will prevent spillage. And you should totally run for pope. If there’s anything the Vatican needs, it’s Wonder Woman hot pants.
Are you trying to impersonate an illegal alien? lol
One day many moons ago, my niece who was barely two came to work with us. We asked her a question and she began blathering unintelligibly something. When we got her to slow down and stop, she said she wanted to sound like a grownup speaking quickly. You see, it is all in the thought that counts. hahaha
Just last night I was reading about the dangers of eating at the computer. It leads to mindless eating. Then you spill coffee on your keyboard. It seems strange to me that people use laptops outdoors. Won’t they get wet?
OH come on now…what do you think?

Oops – sorry to hear that, Nunly!
Hey, wanted to drop in and congratulate you on the new pope. Pope Francis sounds like he is a man of true humility and faith – he should make a great leader for the Church. Thinking of you, Nunly!
