Fedora, Dear… I Want a Divorce.

Dear Fedora,

It pains me to say this, but there is somebody else and I want a divorce.  In case you’re wondering, she’s somebody who I’ve been with before.  In fact, I left her for you six months ago, but she has stolen my heart again with her sweet, brown skin and easy-going personality.  With her, I don’t have to fight anymore.  If I want a cup of Java, she’ll just get me one.  You always brought me Iced-Tea and no matter how hard I tried, you would never get me a Java.  She’s good with Flashing things around too.  You were alright after I talked with you for hours trying to convince you that Flashing some video on your tube was okay.  Remember how hard we fought when it came to what type of music we should listen to?  Don’t forget the arguments over which videos we could watch when Grandma sent them to us?  You simply didn’t want to watch them, but I was really interested in what she had to show us.  I still don’t see what was the matter with it.  She’s different.  She’s always interested in watching or listening to what I want to.  She even lets me watch myself in the Mirror!  I didn’t even have to ask.  She has also given me a lot of bling-bling to keep my eyes happy.  You gave me some once, but then you took it away for no reason.  I argued with you about it for a few days, but never resolved the issue with you.  You gals do have something in common though:  you both liked to take me to dinner buffets.  She does it better though.  She takes me to the fancier ones where I can line up and eat anything I could possibly imagine.  You always limited me in what I could take, and honestly, I need more than what you can give me.
