WHERE ARE YOU TAKING MY PRECIOUS???


I wasn't quite sure what I wanted to talk about today. At first I wanted to talk about aging and the things your mother didn't tell you. Then I thought about maybe writing a short work of fiction. All of this changed when my Macbook CRASHED!!!


For those of you who know me very well you will know that my Mac is like my 'precious'. It goes eveywhere with me and I do everything on it. If it wasn't for my Mac I would practically live in my basement because I am always on the computer.


Just for good measure I recently switched all of my bookkeeping to my Mac. I have a backup but now I have to install my software somewhere else and try to get my files working so I can do my month end invoicing AND my taxes!



And to add insult to injury, when I went to Future Shop to have my computer 'shipped away' to be repaired - there was an enormous display of cases with 10 foot tall blue people on the cover. You guessed it - I walked smack into a WALL of Avatar. While I was waiting for the technician to package up my baby and ship it off I couldn't help but wander over to the display and caress the boxes and wonder 'Will you ever be mine?' ...hahummm....anyway...moving on...


Once the moment passed and the technician assured me everything was 'fine' and my warranty would cover everything (which NEVER happens when my PC breaks) I slumped back to my car and drove back to my lonely empty dungeon - mac-less. sigh....

So I would like to take this opportunity to mourn my precious because I am going to miss her while she is gone. We spend so much time farming and cooking and playing Family Feud. Life will seem empty and meaningless without her.
I am just kidding...geeze I am not that pathetic! I'll just pick up a good book, go for a walk or watch about 10 hours of Ghost Hunters and Destination Truth everyday until my precious comes back to me! Okay now that IS pathetic!
