standing in the same deep water as you.

it's grayer out there than a cure album. rain may make things green and pretty, but i do not want to live in a transplanted london for the sake of my grass and gardenias. i spent the commute to work making an on-the-go playlist of rainy songs suitable for the drear. such a list is not conducive to excercise, though. not much of a running mix...

on a much, much happier note, i have decided that i like gmail enough to keep it. google's answer to email is all about restructuring the organization of emails. i like their 'label' feature over the standard yahoo/hotmail 'folder' concept; they also make it easier to 'flag' (i.e., 'star') a google emaili an immensely fond of the conversation-style organization of emails--especially when i am having a boring day at work and emailing people back and forth.
sucks to my yahoo, i've gone google.

you sick, sick little mooocow

i think a little of the recent iFog has cleared and i can write about things other than my aching need for more mac. and since i can here the collective groan from you guys, i will throw in something completey sophomoric:

iBeer

now that is something i could do with my old g4 if i did not bequeath it upon jen. harks back to the old cube mac fishtanks.

so now that i have figured out how to have a modicum of social life around my hectic work schedule, i can hang out with jen & co. i have caught up on family guy, which is freakin' sweet. i think there is some star wars and jontime in my future. i played poker until midnight with jen's roommates, and jonathan cleaned me out of five bucks.

now i just have to work on revising my "zombie survival scenario," which was severely debunked by matt. but zombies are an important post for another time.

a mac is forever....

that ___ in the last post was 'ipod shuffle and dock'. jon is very happy with it, but he is running a pc on windows 98. that means he needs a mac....*ahem* or just windows 2000, i guess...

i just cannot steer myself away from the apple store, though. my appetite unsated, i built (yet again) my dream system on apple.com.

ten thousand, three hundred, and forty-four dollars.

tres daunting, chere.

what did you spend on your system, chri5s, ten grand? is it worth it?

forget about diamonds. i want an apple supersystem. in fact, whosoever proposes marriage on me should do it with the aforementioned computer--or at least a down payment.

drooling at you.

I went to the c-side galleria mall this morning at about 9:30 to purchase a _______ for my boyfriend (damnit, jon, i am not ruining the surprise). of course not much is open there at 9:30 on a saturday morning because sensible people are still asleep, but after 10 i was able to get into the mac store.


oh, sweet temptation.

it was the shiny tiger box that got me. when one of the floorwalkers caught me stroking a box, i nearly ran away, puce with shame. amused, he led me to where they keep the _______ and the ______.

there is no such thing as a simple in and out trip to the mac store, though. some women have handbags, or clothes, or a large assortment of once-worn manolos. I have apple peripherals. I have bluetooth and airport and ipod. i have a savings account specifically for my future ibook.

if neiman marcus sold alligator ipod covers, i would be up there alongside the manolophiliacs.
