A Computer

“A computer!” he said without much hesitation.

“Like your computer, you mean?” We call it his computer, but it’s really my computer. It’s a Macbook Pro laptop.

“Yeah!” he confirmed.

“Okay.” I ran a search and handed him my iPhone. “Pick one, but I won’t do the background.”

He expeditiously picked a classic Apple marketing shot of the Macbook Pro. “I’ll tell you what to do when you are done,” he said referring to the background.

“Just tell me now,” I insisted.

He thought for a moment, then said, “A backpack.”

“Huh? I don’t get it,” I said puzzled.

“A backpack that you’d buy,” he explained. He continued, talking a bit slower than usual, “You can have a backpack and a price or something.”

“Okay, I get it,” I said figuring he meant an online shopping webpage.

I made quick work of drawing the laptop. It came out a little sloppy, but I didn’t mind today. I did a rough sketch of a Mac desktop with a browser window taking up the screen. As requested I drew an online website with a backpack for sale. I incorporating his name into the search box trying to be clever.

“I like it!” he said when he saw the finished drawing giving it his stamp of approval.
