Follow along closely, this might not make sense: your patience is appreciated.
I need a name for my NEW iMac, why because I name my computers. See #50.
I want it to be something clever, not like Jack or Sue. That's a dumb name for something as fucking awesome as a new iMac made by my hero, the Jobster not to be confused with my real hero, Eric Gill (for President.)
Hmm, the last two names of my computers were inspired by a place (Africa and my new (and by new I mean 100 year old apartment in Alphabet City) but I haven't been anywhere cool in awhile besides Chicago and Lake Erie and Central Park like 5 times a week and no no those just won't do.
Well, she is pretty. I assume she's a she I don't know why.
Well she is pretty bright. I want something bright and cheery since it's such a joy to have a new computer that actually works but something bright since her screen is like the sun, shining into my bedroom, except at night, when I want to sleep. Seriously it's so bright.
Quick! thesaurus.com words for bright, no wait, better: bright in a different language, Russian! Ah ha perfect, except I don't remember the word for "bright" in Russian. Fuck. But ah yes but my translator widget does. Seriously, I love this thing. How did I live without it?
Hmm turns out the word for "bright" in Russian is yarko. That's kind of a good name. I like it. Yes yes yarko. Yarko, sto toi delish! Perfect. Done & Done.
Yarko, hmm sounds like that name from the Animaniacs cartoon. Wait, that's Yakko (after a quick google search in which my boss was standing directly behind me wondering what I was doing and now thinks I have lost my mind but really I've totally just lost ALL my patience for being chained to this desk in total, complete and utter just plain full out-boredom)
One thing leads to another and suddenly I'm bouncing up-and-down in my Herman Miller office chair and the rest of the day err week minds as well not exist because this, this is why I LOVE the internet!
