Nothing like a spot of luck

The IT fella popped his head into my office today.

"It's laptop refresh time," he told me, "that means you're getting a new laptop next week."
"Oh, really?!" I blurted, "but I just got a new one last year - I get one again?"
"Yep, you're on an old model, you need an upgrade."
And he headed off.

I sat in my office, beaming at myself.

I'm getting a new laptop! Now I don't anymore have to figure out how to confess to him that my 'A' key isn't working properly because I have cookie crumbs lodged under it.
