I believe I'm becoming over-invested in my computer gear. I just realized I didn't know where my flash drive was, panicked, jumped for my purse, discovered it in the depths of the purse . . . and I kissed it when I found it, with a muttered, "There you are."
Fortunately, I did not stroke it lovingly and whisper "My precious." But it was a near thing.
For Venture Bros. fans:

It's been bandied about a bit in LG15 speculation. E.g. here.
It was mentioned in the Metafilter comments too, but for some reason I didn't place it at the same book I'd read a few months ago.

It's pretty famous in its genre. (Now I'm trying to recall if I have a copy floating around or not.)
