girlofpreyMy computer is so slow, SO SLOW, oh my God, I just want to format it. Or something. Although it might just be that it's old and knackered - it can't be more than 5 years since I got it, but my last laptop was really slow towards the end and I just assumed it was because the memory was full, but we cleared everything off and formatted it before giving it to my nephew, and he couldn't use it either because it was still slow. There are games I wouldn't mind buying and playing on my laptop, but it almost seems like there's no point because I can't imagine it being able to handle them without lagging, lagging endlessly, lagging so much that actually playing them was almost impossible.
I would try formatting it, but it occurs to me that I'm not actually sure where I got the windows software from when I first set it up, and all the other Microsoft Office stuff I use, and I'd have to reinstall all my games again, and uhh. It seems like so much hard work.
It's a shame that Deirdre's death storyline focuses so much on Tracy and Ken. I found Tracy's crying actually quite believable, when she broke down on Wednesday? But she's not a good actress, and they can't resist having her randomly sniping at people in a way she probably wouldn't if she was genuinely thrown by grief. And I really don't think William Roache is a good actor these days - it's hard, because I try not to look at his face, but all he ever does is smile creepily at people. And not notice that they are bored by him or he's making them feel awkward. The most emotion I felt throughout both of the episodes was when Steve said life was all about arguing about 50ps. Second to that was Liz being sad she'll never see her best friend again, and going in to comfort Tracy because she OBVIOUSLY knew that Deirdre would have been furious if she'd ignored Tracy crying, when Tracy didn't have Deirdre anymore. The actual stuff with Tracy, and with Ken...not so much.
