Going back to college, Thomas style

Thomas's train leaves in less than 13 hours. Rather than spending his time packing or doing laundry, he's instead sadly slumped over his laptop listing all the things his laptop can no longer do (which he needs it do to, of course, for all upcoming course work): a battery that doesn't charge and a cd player that doesn't eject disks is all that he's told us so far. Most likely, he's holding out because he never tells us ANYTHING. Of course, had he told us all this when he arrived THREE WEEKS AGO, we could have gotten all this fixed. Some things never change.
