I keep on not using my laptop for long because heavy.
But this laptop is the lightest I've owned. The thinnest. The best performing.
And I used to sit here all day everyday using the computer.

I think I'm comparing it to the tiny tablet. Sure it doesn't work real well, but it's light! I can move around! Convenient! ... and all it's good for is reading, and even then it's a bit less than optimal.

And then I keep vaguely planning to get an ereader and load it with fanfic. Won't have to end the day plugged in to finish my book, if I get the right reader it lasts for half way to forever. Even lighter. Could get one that's waterproof. Why would I need to? I don't know, but I could.

... I have two other devices for doing the same thing, why do I need a fancy e ink one that only does that one thing? Well it's the one thing I do all day every day, so, I guess...

I just need to find one that reads the kind of files I've already got. And then do some deciding. And then not feel silly about it...

Maybe one of those bed trays with little legs?

I tried one and it made marks in the recliner, didn't quite work out, gave it to my brother.
still an idea if I can find a smaller one with rounder edges.

I love my e-reader - it’s so light for my painful hands - but it’s tricky to download fic to it, so I only do it with longfics. I need to make an effort to go through my ‘to read’ list in my history and download more.
