Chapter 58.75: Wake Up Computer!

I don't expect the world to follow my schedule, but I do expect my accessories in life to do what they're supposed to do. So I was kinda pissed this morning when my laptop decided that it needed to wait until its user had two cups of coffee before it would work at a decent speed. I don't know about these recalcitrant contraptions. I know it needs to do a virus scan every once in a while, but dammit, it's 7:15 a.m. and I need the computer to work with a tired user. Why is it moving so frigging slow?!

An hour and a couple restarts later, the thing is back to its old self. I can't say the same for me.
