the best day ever

In sequential order, here are the awesome things that I did today:
  1. Woke up in a new house with roommates who actually like and talk to me.  Sat around in pajamas, laughed, talked, and ate brownies straight out of the pan.
  2. Met my friend Juanita for breakfast/coffee at Urban Standard, and then went to a quirky antique shop.
  3. Went to the Apple store and bought a Macbook from a very attractive sales guy named John.  
  4. Came home and set up said Macbook and admired it for a couple of hours.  
  5. Took pictures of old trains and other rusty things (pictures to come whenever I get all the necessary software on the new computer.)
  6. Drove to Montevallo for more pictures.
  7. Ate spring rolls with Charlene, Dan, Patrick, and John.
  8. Laid in Charlene's yard on blankets and drank wine.
  9. Ate more brownies straight from the pan.

you don't need to load the software from your camera. i wouldn't... you can use image uploader or iphoto on your macbook. just plug it in.

fun times! you are going to love your macbook!!! you'll never be the same ;) run quickly away from any software that came w/ your camera, which you are going to love, too, by the way!

we were at urban standard and a quirky antiques store yesterday, as well. i totally expected to see you when we walked in, but alas, we missed you. i am officially in love w/ that place.

I agree with all of the people who told you to ditch the camera software. Mac = awesome.

that IS a very good day. i don't even bother actually baking the brownies most of the time. and once you mac, you never go back...i think that's how that one goes, right? ;)

now you can prowl the coffee shop scene with your new computer like all the other cool kids. i always hated using my old Dell from hell when i wanted to 'work in public," and i always felt like the kid who brought the stinky lunch...truth be told, Ash's cookness went way up when I saw that he had a mac. haha!
