[ say hello to my little friend ]

OK, FIRST of all, remember the incredible expanding MacBook Pro battery saga? {read about it here} Well, I'm happy to report that Apple came through and replaced my hulking battery for free! woo hoo! By the time I got the new one, the old one had expanded so much that the metal cover popped right off!

Anyway, during that time of needing to be hardwired to use my laptop (I know, it's not that much of a hardship), my guy took pity on me and I'm now the proud owner of this sexy thang:


Isn't she a beaut? And with the cute little case I whipped up for her, those daisies have me smiling everytime I look at her. Now I can blog and read my online mags anywhere I want - ahhh... life is good.

    Fabulous you lucky girl. My husband brought one home from work a few months ago and I'm afraid he hasn't seen it since - I REALLY like it :)

    Yay for you!
    I love my hubby's
    i-pad, which he
    takes when he travels.
    I am waiting for
    prices to come down
    and then will nab
    one for myself.
    Love the case!

    Hey Lisa! Thanks for stopping by and welcome to the area. I don't know if one ever gets used to the heat. I've been here 16 years and it used to not bother me so much, but the older I get, the less I can tolerate it. :/ Needless to say, since the boys and I are on summer vacation now, we are indoors most of the time. We normally head to the States for the summer, but decided not to go this year. It's a good thing I'm a homebody and have lots of hobbies to keep me busy. :) Did the apartment come through for you? Close to midnite so I really need to hit the hay now. Wishing you all the best, Tammy

    OK, I'm officially jealous! Yes, it is beautiful! And that case is simply adorable!

    I have a tablet PC which I carry in my purse and I do love it! Are we hooked on technology or what?

    I think the iPad's outfit is super cute ;) I have to admit, I kinda want one, but I know I would still have to have my books and mags...I love the feel and the smell of them! I'm afraid that if I get an iPad, it would just amp up my Angry Birds obsession (tragic, I know).
    Have a great day!
