On the rebound

Well, I finally found an affordable replacement for my laptop. I thought about fixing the old one, but instead I got a newer one for $500 more. It's a late 2008 unibody MacBook Pro. I'm really liking it so far. A lot of things have been reworked so that they look, work, and feel a lot better. On top of it being a good price, it has all the latest hardware (as far as graphics cards and bus speeds go), and it comes with two years of remaining AppleCare warranty. Therefore, instead of spending $800 on a laptop that could break again next week, I spent $1300 on one that I can have repaired for free if it breaks again next week. Or next month. Or next year!

I missed a meeting with my mentor today. That made me feel bad. Hopefully it's the last hiccup in rebooting from this computer catastrophe. I rescheduled, and this time it's in my phone so I won't forget! I hope, anyway. I was also supposed to go to the Price is Right today, but I had a lot of work to do and sleep to catch up on, so I passed. Still, I'm sad I missed the opportunity.

Work is still awesome. I've been lugging a monitor to and from for the past two weeks, but I can finally end that ridiculousness, and with style! Still waiting on getting back together with Marc Webb, but it'll happen. I almost missed the meeting because it was scheduled during a class period, but fortunately it was rescheduled. I've been in a lot of great meetings lately, and more are still to come both later this week and early next.

The weather has been all over the place lately. First it cooled off. Then it rained for several days. After the rain, it got super hot again. Now it's pretty temperate. Kinda funny, I just realized the crazy weather coincided with my computer craziness. It's weird how everything seems to go all off balance at once.
