laptop meets milk…not a love story

…and the story begins….

Once upon a month ago,  I purchased a beautiful pink laptop.

Instantly, I fell in love with it! It had all of the features that I have every wanted in a laptop.  I treated it with respect, kindness and amazing love.  I kept it away from any liquids, treats or anything that could lead to damaging affects.  I loved it.  It was perfect in every way until…

Two days ago, I came home from a softball game and had an urge to have a cold glass of milk.  My beautiful pink laptop was in my hand.  I gently placed it on the island while I poured my milk. 

A thought popped into my head, “Michelle, why don’t you boot up the laptop while you are pouring your milk?!”  Great idea.  I pressed the “on” key.  While it was powering on, I grabbed a glass from the cupboard and poured a delicious glass of cold milk.

I glanced at the screen and noticed that I had an email.  I clicked on the inbox with my right hand…since the glass of milk was in my left hand. 

Aw…it was an email from a sweet friend of mine.  Still holding the glass of milk, I read it  and decided to quickly email her back.  I sat the glass down with my left hand (because I would need it to type with it)  and my right hand hit the glass and SPLASH.  Milk covered the entire keyboard and screen. 

I screamed, “Are you serious?” 

Frantically, I tilted the laptop and watched the milk as it poured from the laptop.  Milk was everywhere.  I grabbed towels to soak up the liquidy mess. It was coming out of every hole and crevice .  My heart sank!

…that is how laptop met milk.

The End.
