Well I obviously made it until Friday, as maddeningly slow as last week went for me.
The good news is as I sit here and write this, I am doing so on my very own computer!
No, I wasn't able to get mine fixed. With some help from my Dad, I was able to get financed for one of these. Thanks Dad!
That means that not only do I now own a laptop, I also have a better computer than Joe! Am I lucky or what? It is just. so. cool. Needless to say, Joe is not exactly thrilled about mine being better than his. I think it's a guy thing. We have decided that when his computer is paid off, he can sell his and we'll get him a new one. I also promised to share mine with him too. It has a bigger screen than his, so when we are at home and he is working on his web site he can use mine. Both of them being Macs, all we have to to is connect a cord from one to the other to transfer information back and forth. One of the very cool features that it has is a camera built right into the top of the screen! I took this picture with it! I also got this very cool laptop case for it. Isn't it pretty? I'm doing a great big happy dance over here at my house!
