I’m very grateful to be married to a nerd as I have never enjoyed navigating my way through long conversations on hold with tech support folks. This morning as I was sending an email to a friend, I encountered a new problem. A pop-up read: “One of the USB devices attached to the computer has malfunctioned and Windows does not recognize it. Try reconnecting the device. If Windows still does not recognize it, replace the devise.” I looked down to see the “devise” attached to my USB port was Chalice, happily chewing on my palm synchronizing cord. It was a startling revelation that Windows did not recognize Chalice and further mystifying to think of replacing a devise so clearly irreplaceable!
