Happy New Year!!

i know it's almost a week late, but Happy New Year to all! sorry it's been so long, but the computer broke last weekend. i know i had promised above all to write before Christmas, but i think i have issues with promises to myself like that...
so here i am, on our old Windows 95, while our XP is getting fixed. i'm tying on a keyboard that kind of feels a bit like a typewriter to me - it's got thick, chunky keys that you have to hit quite hard to get any response out of and that make a funny noise when you do. it's got a mouse that fortunately does have a centre scroll button (unlike my friend's computer which i was using briefly on Friday), but ignores completely what you want and scrolls the page up or down - or keeps it still - to its own preferences. it has wierd issues with showing up web pages the way they're suposed to be so i can't edit this plain text at all. and i'm on dial-up internet, so i only have about 10 minutes, and this is probably all i'm going to get to say.
just wanted to write to reassure anyone who's reading this that i'm still alive or whatever else they might have thought (or hoped) had happened to me.
i'll write again as soon as i can when our computer is fixed - i'll try and make it a New Year's Resolution!
see you soon (i hope!)
