No MacBook ownership would be complete without some ridiculous Photo Booth photos. Here are a few of RV and me, just messing around with the various settings:

If my computer is waiting for me when I get home, I will be the happiest girl. I mean, chances are unlikely because they’ll probably swing by when nobody is home, and I will have to wait until Monday as Amazon predicted. UGH! But *scream* there was a chance!

*fingers crossed*

Update: DELIVERED!!!

#71 of 101 in 1001!

I have been working the long hours lately. I’d work during the day, grab dinner, and then work in the evening also. The eyes start to glaze over and the stomach grumbles along if I don’t take that break to eat.

It never seems to end though. Excuse me while I go and pull my hair out now. I’m working on one engagement right now and wrapping up two others at the same time. It’s difficult switching the brain from one to the other, but it has to be done. I feel like I am a disappointment to one of my managers because I’m having to turn my attentions to other things all at the same time. I’m not responding as quickly as she would like. *sad disappointed face*

At the same time, I feel like I’ve been using the need to work as an excuse not to socialize. Sometimes I end up not getting much work done. It’s that time of the month, and there are times when I just want to withdraw from everything [RV included] completely. However, I know that the feeling won’t last and that as soon as it passes, I’m back to being my normal self again.

In other news, the MacBook Pro is SHIPPED, and I’m trying to go to bed before midnight!

*scream*

So exciting. The new Macs are out! Now to decide between the regular and the Pro.

So I was sitting here with the Amazon shopping cart loaded up, ready to press the “Buy Now” button, but then it sorta sunk in that it was a lot of money, and I looked all over the web to see if I could get my friends to stop me.

Thankfully, Victor spoke some sense into me. He told me to wait until after the Back to School sales. Generally, Apple will make announcements for the new models after they get all the old inventory out, so patience may pay off. If after seeing the new models, I can settle for an older model, WOO! It should be cheaper. If I want one of the newer toys, it would probably cost around how much I would’ve paid for it had it not been upgraded… Supposedly. I’m counting on not wanting a new toy, so I can get a nice deal! If I’m being so patient and not buying it right this moment, it better pay off.

Is it September yet?
