As per usual, I’d been worrying myself sick over an impending project. The geriatric electronic capacitors inside my vintage Apple Macintosh SE-30 needed replacing, and I couldn’t bring myself to attempt the delicate procedure for fear of irreparably damaging the machine’s logic board.
I was on the verge of giving up when my four-year-old daughter burst through the front door. She was elated, having just met Roxanne, the giant boa constrictor that evidently lives a couple of houses down the street.
Epilogue: The procedure took about thirty minutes. The SE-30 is working beautifully.
