In the twenty year saga of Dusty VS Technology – Tech won today. My computer got a virus. Alarms went off, screens went black, blinking warnings flashed across my monitor, frantic screaming was heard in the distance as a robotic voice warned me repeatedly that my computer had been compromised.
All during a work zoom meeting. Before I was even finished my first cup of coffee.
The robot overlords have thrown down the gauntlet with this skirmish. Though it scared me- they have not won. I slapped my toaster as a sign of superiority after this unfortunate event. I glared at my microwave. I side eyed my dishwasher. I hugged my pink mixer because she is beautiful and would never turn on me.
And I ordered a pink crockpot for our Superb Owl snacks because if tech is going to turn on me, it should at least be pretty to look at.
