Making the Switch

So I never thought I would really ever buy an Apple computer. Or a laptop. And I just did. An apple powerbook G4 12 inch. way faster and newer than my sony vaio pc from 2001 (which I still love and plan on keeping). I'm bummed though because I can't find a laptop case for it that isn't black and ugly! i'm not putting my baby in an ugly laptop purse. hell no. I also got the air port express so i can be all fancy wireless and do really cool geeky things with it. N doens't know that I actually broke down and bought it yet cause he's in Omaha at his sister's 30th birthday. I miss him a little, especially since this coming week is end of the month so we will both be busy and stressed out at work all week. yuck. I haven't decided what I will name my laptop yet. My ipod is Spanky, but i haven't thought of anything good yet. Anyways, it's not the top of the line, but i didn't want to spend 2000 on a laptop. Bye bye tax money. Thank god there was a rebate on it. I can compute in bed! LOL. Sunshine, I promise I will bring it with me the next time I visit.

I finally uploaded crafty pics to Flickr. Normally i update more frequently, but i got behind a little with my vaio being out of commission while N was fixing it and then I had to re-load all my files and essential programs like itunes. I finished my stuff for the hello kitty swap. Now I'm working on the Jim Henson swap. I am almost done with a Kermit the frog design I've been cross stitching. I also made more bottle cap magnets this weekend. they are so easy and fun and then i have little momentos of all the booze i've drank (and soda caps too).

A new dollar tree store opened up by my house. it's clean and has some good stuff. there is a lot of scary stuff too like $1 pregnancy tests and several sightings of white trash.

hey there

Well there are no good excuses. other than work and the boy. he will be out of town visiting some random relatives so I am going to see Sunshine and his new place. yay! we get to eat junk food and shop. it will be awesome. I don't have carpool this week so that has been awesome. Last night I went to Hobby Lobby on my way home and found some really cute mini Care Bears cross stitch kits. I didn't get a damn thing done for my swaps, but I'll daydream some ideas up at work. I want to bring my ipod today but my department has a visitor from up north,so that would probably be a bad idea. damn. damn. damn.

New gadgets:
1. my new motorola v266 camera flip phone
