Got a Case of the Mondays? Not for much longer.

It just struck me as I was sipping my wine and unwinding after a long day of work, that today is the LAST Monday I will have at my current position @ the bank.   And also possibly the last Monday at the company I have donated the last 9+ years of my life to as well!. I do work next week, but next Monday is a holiday...so this was the last one.  Its a really strange thought though. Exciting and scary at the same time. I think because I have known it is coming for so long, it hasn't seemed real, and in a way still doesn't.  Check back with me on June 2nd!

So less than 2 weeks until I am unemployed...if anyone knows of any good job openings in San Diego, please let me know! I don't know what I want to be when I grow up, so I'm open to suggestions.

And in case you were wondering...I will be taking my red stapler with me when I leave :)

Got my new glasses!


For if I'm being good and taking out my contacts periodically...here are my new specs! What do you think? 
Also---I clearly have not mastered the photobooth self portrait! so excuse the pic!

Dance your cares away....Worries for another day!

Oh let it be true!!   Rumor has it that there is going to be a Big Screen-Live Action-Fraggle Rock movie! 

I can't wait to dance my cares away....down in Fraggle Rock!

It's here!

The new MacBook is here!  Still learning how to deal without "right click" and 10/key (which I kind of already knew from the last laptop).  Plus this built in camera thing is tricky!
More to come...

PS-I believe I have a "photobooth" date with Megan tomorrow! :)

How to spend $1400 in under 5 minutes!



Done & purchased! And if you know me, I'm sure you know it actually took more than 5 minutes, as I had to research, check, double check, and have Mark check to make sure I'm buying what I should!

My new MacBook is on its way to me. Should be here within the next 2 weeks (or hopefully less)!

I'm joining the ranks of Apple lovers and Mac users...wish me luck!

Now I just need a super cute purple iPod shuffle (refurbished of course...to save some $$) :)

Signs you need a new computer!

Well...I think when your computer shuts down/goes into sleep mode in the middle of using it...that might be sign #1!!

I've been wanting to get a new laptop for a few months now, and debating between a PC and a Mac. I'd really like to try out a Mac, I've never owned one, but of course the cost is more than what I'd spend on a PC. And the PC is familiar...but the Mac is new and shiny. I like using Mark's iMac and I've played with a couple Macbooks...but the cost and newness is a little scary. So I've been researching and went down to the Apple store to play. Of course once there I decided I liked the look of the black ones better than the white ones...and of course the black ones are the more expensive ones! But I had basically decided to get a MacBook, and get a refurbished one to help lower the cost. Then...right about when I've decided to fork over the credit card...Apple goes and announces new spec's for the MacBooks, which drops the prices of the refurbished ones a bit (yay!), but then within 2 days those sell out (before I get around to clicking purchase)!! So I'm either going to have to fork over full price for a new one, or wait a couple months for some to hit the refurbished "rack". So...do I fork over the extra money, try and wait it out a bit longer, or opt for a new Dell laptop???

Of course...for anyone that knows me...parting with any sum of money is no small feat! And for purchases in the $1000+ range there is much analyzing, comparison and over thinking to be done!!!
