I’m going to Libby and Russell’s country house, and I’m bringing three dogs, including Sputnik. Russell is driving and I sit in the front seat, but then I’m really embarrassed since Libby should sit there and I move to the back seat. While I’m moving I lose the dogs and they’re running around in a park. I’m terribly afraid that I have lost Sputty because she’s not wearing a collar.
While I am looking for the dogs I set my laptop down on a hot grill. The bottom gets singed and there is a brown burned spot on it. The computer still works but the screen is all messed up, the colors are weird and it doesn’t refresh properly. I wonder if I can bring it back and say that the battery is bad.
I am relieved to find the dogs and I gather them and my laptop up. I am supposed to go with my family, Helen, and Alison to see a woman give a talk on psychology. I get everyone into a big minivan. We are supposed to stop and pick up Alison but we don’t. When Helen asks me where she is, I say I forgot because I was too caught up with the whole lost dog/burned laptop crisis.
We get to the facility where the speech is taking place. The woman is giving it twice. It’s not a very good talk, she’s not a good presenter and she’s not very good with her computer. I then go and visit with a man and my mother and John. My laptop seems to be working again.
