Candi Apple
Candi’s back!! So go on over and tell Mrs. Candi how much you missed her. Oh, and you can read about her tropical wedding and honeymoon adventures, too.
I think Candi and Brian should move to San Francisco. Not just because it would make my life so much more fun, even though it would, but because they could make a total killing repairing Macs. Probably even enough to actually live here. There appear to be no Brians here, despite the fact that Apple was invented here and has its headquarters here. So you would think there would be several Brians to choose from, but no.
You can probably tell that our iMac is still in the shop. The guys who are supposed to be fixing it are as phone-challenged as ever, so John has called them several times over the past few days with increasing acrimony. Finally, he told them that if they can’t get it to us by the end of the day today, they have to give us a refund (for the $370 they charged to “fix” it in February) and we’ll take it to someone who knows what the hell they’re doing. In actual fact, we’ll probably Fed Ex it to Brian. Accept no substitutes.
Since we have been Mac-less twice in the last two months, I have come up with a typically Suzy solution: buy an iBook, so that if/when our iMac has another hissy fit, we won’t be helpless. Oooh, maybe I could bring it with me to England in September and keep you posted on my adventures over there. Isn’t it amazing how I can always find a way to justify spending money, especially on things that are both cute and fun?

Buying an iBook sounds like a perfectly reasonable solution to me :).
Plus it would be fun to be updated on your trip!
Haha, it would be fun to live out there, although I am afraid SF is a little TOO big of a city for me. I’m in between being a city girl and a country girl. I like a city with less than 100,000, and SF doesn’t qualify!
You should FedEx it to us if that jerk doesn’t fix it for you. Brian would have it fixed and sent back by now!
And an iBook would be perfect, cute little buggers that they are!
I love my iBook. It’s an awesome little thing… very mobile. More mobile than most laptops.
