I love Dwight. More
like I have a love/hate relationship with him, but I get along with him well
enough on a daily basis. I became
inspired to move him to a different spot when I saw that one of my close
friends put her printer on top of her cabinet instead of on her desk.
Dwight just so happened to be sitting in front of my window
and I figured I would be able to see much better if I moved him somewhere
else. I walked across the hallway to my
room and unplugged the cords from the outlet and my computer, then pulled some
boxes, empty coke bottles, and an extremely
dead plant off the top of my cabinet to make room for Dwight.
Unfortunately, the plant died quite a few months ago. It lived a healthy and wonderful life and
before I knew it, it turned brown and withered away to nothing. But I still kept the pot of dirt it was
growing in. Perhaps I’ll plant some
flowers in it spring quarter.
Once the space above the cabinet was cleared, I lifted
Dwight on top of it. I didn’t realize
how heavy he was until then. I ended up
putting him on the right side of the cabinet and then I realized plugging him
in every time to print things off was going to be a slight inconvenience. Then I shrugged and decided that I didn’t
care, since I don’t use him often enough for it to really matter.
I printed off something for good measure, just to make sure
that it worked. I have to stand on my
bed and hold my laptop while I print things off—if anyone ever walks in while I
happen to be printing a document, I’ll just have to deal with looking like an
idiot.
Oh, the sacrifices I make.
After I was satisfied with the change, I sat down at my
desk.
I thought I could see out the window before, but now I can really see out of the window.
I can't believe I didn't think of this months ago.
