Today I've been waiting on "ahorita", a word that *should* mean "very soon" but in reality could be anything.
But I like my go-to tech specialist in Monterrey. The laptop is fried, but she thinks it's just the BIOS chip - so if the machine works when it's swapped out, I'm looking at a much more manageable $85 CAD for the deep clean and repair combined.
(If not, eh, I gambled.)
For now, still playing catch-up. It's fireworks day in Medellín. Going to be noisy from now until past midnight! 🎄 🎇
When they say "mañana" it is neeeeeeever happening! 😂
@MLClark Good News! Here's hoping. 🙏
