Self-Amputation

Tomorrow is my last day at Avanade. With all due respect to the friends and peers I am leaving behind, the hardest part of leaving is losing my laptop. Sadly, the Dell Latitude I have been toting around belongs to the company, and the prospect of losing the ability to code anywhere is very disheartening. I feel like I’m losing a vital appendage! I haven’t yet asked if I would be able to purchase it from the company, but I doubt that is an option.

May we please have a moment of silence for my lost companion?
