Goodbye, Steve.

October 5, 2011 by Lauren 8 Comments

Steve Jobs, former CEO of Apple computer, has passed away.

Lloyd’s asleep as I write this. He doesn’t even know yet, and I can’t bear to wake him with such sad news, so I got his clothes ready for tomorrow.

It's just a sad day.

Thanks for all the cool gadgets, Steve. I confess that I got a little teary tonight.

    If I came into the bathroom and the first thing I saw was that full-sized, person-shaped blackness, it would scare the bejeebers out of me.

      … so then the news about Steve would kinda seem not so bad after that, right?

      I got up in the middle of the night, but I thought I might have dreamed the clothing.

    I saw the news last night & the 1st one I thought of was Lloyd.

    Sorry Lloyd. A moment of silence for Steve….and you…and the world of technology.

      Lloyd was the first one I thought about, too. So, Lloyd, it’s now time for you to ascend to your royal position as the new inspirational leader for Apple.

        Agreed. Is that going to pay well? Because I could really use a vacation.

          I almost typed that Lloyd could now be the imaginative, I mean innovative genius for Apple. OR is it imaginary genius????
