#wondrouswednesday @Eggs
1️⃣ Tagged. My fave since I was 8. Aged well, even the tech (surprisingly).
2️⃣ Jenny Lawson's Let's Pretend This Never Happened.
3️⃣ It's not really my bag, usually, but I really liked Chesterton's Queer Occupations (I think it's the title in English?!)
4️⃣ Eggs Benedict, but only if the Hollandaise is light. It's supposed to be sauce, not salty custard, you know?
5️⃣ @batsy @Lindy 👋👋👋

Eggs Hah eggs bene!! Agreed on the hollandaise 5y

Ha, a tech question! I'm the tech girl for my family, friends and department. I put my husband on Mac and my son on Chromebook, for minimal fuss and troubleshooting. I have to do so much work to keep my colleagues' PCs clean! My current machines are a mac and an Android/Linux dual boot.

SilversReviews Thanks for playing and for commenting. You must be in HIGH demand. 😊 5y
tournevis @SilversReviews Honestly, I dread the holiday season. 🤪 5y
SilversReviews @tournevis Do you get more calls? 5y
tournevis @SilversReviews They wait for me to enter their home for, ostensibly, a party, and then they ask me to fix that thing that happens on their computer, you know? The thing they think will take two minutes that would take at least two hours to fix. Every Christmas. 5y
SilversReviews @tournevis Oh my. HUGS!! 5y

I am a techie. This is a given. I've owned computers since 1981. I'm a web monkey. Back in the 1990s, I hand coded my first website.

1️⃣ Android, MacOS, iOS, and Linux. Windows, as well if I have to. Which is often.
2️⃣ I have two, a Kobo (Belphegor) and a Kindle (Mammon).
3️⃣ On the phone, Chrome. On PCs, Firefox Quantum.
4️⃣ Desktop, laptop, mini-portable. Both hubby and son have tablets.

I started reading so early, and I've spoke. About my #childhoodreads so much here already, I had to choose. Here are three I read, a lot, as a child, Winnie when I was 4-5yo and the two others when I was 8-9. There are so many others mentionned in previous posts.

Back in the day, 10-X was a really nice computer mystery adventure about mourning.
