Miniature Dinosaur

Did you know that I have a miniature dinosaur on my lap?!?! What... You didn't? Ohhh let me show you:

She is a 2005 PowerBook G4.... I actually am not even sure what that means, but she is 6 years old. That is like 90 years in technology life.

I try not to judge her too much because I know it can be hard to work at that age, and for the most part she is a precious and sweet creature. Other times when I nicely ask her to edit photos on Photoshop or Illistartor, I feel like she is looking at me like this...

AND IT IS FREAKING SCARY!!!! You know when she gives you that color wheel of death... I fear that she may suddenly combust into dust and evil particles causing me to be computer-less.

I would also like to inform you that her battery and charger are on life-line constantly!!! She will only live without the charger for about 15 min, and to charge the giant beast you have to hold it in a very certain and particular way.... ALSO she will not allow me to watch any videos whatsoever!!! UGH!!!!

She gets the job done, and that is what I am thankful for.... she may take 3 min to fully load Nie Nie's page, but she gets 'er done!!! I wish we could afford another one to replace her with... or I wish the Apple store did something like a trade in, you know like what they do for cars, BUT NOOOOOOOOOOOO they act like you should just splurge or go in debt.

So here is my most brilliant plan... I will find a way to sell things - either headbands, or something else I have never even heard of, or possibly just lemonade. I will call it "A Mac for a McK Foundation" and 100% of all proceeds will go to a new computer. I will even make a chart that will show where the goal is and how far away I am from reaching that goal. IT WILL BE PERFECT!!!

If you would like to participate in this foundation, feel free to email me.

I am seriously kidding and could not take any money from anyone... EVER!
