I may or may not have blogged about the dead battery on the laptop on which I am writing this. I assume that it's a battery because I have read that an overheated keyboard is a sign that the energy going through the machine is coming from the house plug and not being bypassed through the battery.
Another symptom is that whenever I'm on the Internet and it chugs through a procotol, such as loading a page, at some point during my Internet session I hear the laptop start to whir loudly, as if it's overexerting itself just so the porn site that I surfed to will load properly.
I thought I could put it off because I'll just plug my computer in somewhere, so no worries. But the whirring continued. It started to come on easier, with less cached megabytes being chugged through while I surfed before the guts of my lap would fire up and make a hell of a lot of noise.
Finally, however, I think I reached my breaking point recently. For the past two or three days this laptop battery has started to make those loud blowing noises more frequently. It seems to happen for the slightest computer moves, like toggling between Internet pages or even hitting "Send."
This whirring sound is really pissing me off. I don't think I can hold out too much longer. I will wait till my credit card billing cycle ends, and then buy a fucking battery so (hopefully) this goddamn baby will shut the fuck up.
