You see, I have a phone interview set up today at 5:30PM for a job to work at the Apple Store in Lenox Square Mall in Buckhead, Atlanta. I’m nervous and yet wholly excited if this all works out – I could have some extra income this school year and be able to afford little things here and there, not to mention the Disney trip I want to go with Tricia on this New Year’s… and helping her feel financially secure in Atlanta is a big part of it too. But… Comcast is still a bucket of fail and hasn’t reconnected the phone line they accidently cut (seriously now, who DOESN’T survey land when they dig??) and I have crappy cell coverage at home, so it looks like this phone interview will be done from the seat of my car in a quiet (cell-covered) parking lot…. somewhere.

So my MacBook Pro came in! The same day I got the initially email from Apple, too. XD That was this past Thursday, and I have spent every day loving this beautiful machine. I’ve got it just about entirely set up – the only thing left at this rate is for The Sims 3 to arrive with Splash’s package so I can install it and torture explore the Sims community. Meanwhile, I have the white Macbook all set up to be wiped and reformatted with a fresh install when I sell it to Talon come Thursday when he is paid. I’ll miss it, actually. That computer was a fantastic companion… so to speak.

Egads. Time to work. I’ll try to add to this later, but if I don’t, wish me luck!
