True story.
My Wife, Something of a "Logical" Buzzkill
Me: Hey, want to go with me to San Francisco on January 23, 2010 and meet a bunch of imaginary people from the Internet?
Wife: What do you mean by "imaginary people?"
Me: Well, they are mostly from Twitter. So they might not be real. But they probably are!
Wife: Just one day?
Me: Well, I think it's more like a gathering at a bar for a while.
Wife: So you're going to fly to San Francisco—
Me: I was thinking ROAD TRIP! Fun, huh!?
Wife: So you're going to drive… how far is it?
Me: Um, maybe a little over 10 hours.
Wife: So you're going to DRIVE across Nevada in the snow for 10 hours one way and rent a hotel room just so you can hang out in a bar with people you've never met from the Internet for just a couple hours and then drive back home for 10 hours?
Me: Um. We'd probably also eat a meal somewhere in there.
Meanie Pants (An IM conversation)
Carrie: DAD!
Carrie: DAD!
Carrie: SOMETHING TERRIBLE HAS HAPPENED
Carrie: WE
Carrie: ARE OUT
Carrie: OF MILK!
Carrie: Also, there's, like, nothing to eat.
Jon: that *is* a crisis
Jon: sadly, though
Jon: Mom is working late tonight
Jon: as am I
Carrie: OMG WHAT WILL I DO.
Jon: maybe you could walk down to Smith's and get some milk, etc.
Jon: maybe once it cools down a bit
Carrie: OR
Jon: yes…?
Carrie: you could order me some delivery food
Carrie: OR I COULD JUST COMPLAIN A LOT.
Jon: yeah
Jon: not gonna happen
Jon: (my calling to get you delivery)
Carrie: WHY?
Carrie: THAT IS MEAN
Jon: yes
Jon: i suppose it is *super* mean
Jon: for me to interrupt MY life and work
Jon: and instantly drop everything I'm working on
Jon: so I can do something you are quite capable of doing
Jon: yes, Ellis is quite correct, I *am* a giant meanie pants
Carrie: BUT THE MONEY!
Jon: you work
Jon: you make money
Carrie: Not very much.
Jon: YOU ALSO DRINK A *LOT* OF MILK FOR SOMEONE WHO NEVER BUYS IT
Carrie: I REALLY LIKE MILK, OKAY
Carrie: IT IS DELICIOUS
Carrie: IT COMES OUT OF A COW
Jon: THEN MAYBE THE MONEY TO BUY THE MOO JUICE SHOULD COME OUT OF *YOUR* WALLET
Carrie: MILK IS A STAPLE OF THE AMERICAN DIET; YOU WOULD PROBABLY BE BUYING IT ANYWAY
Jon: but in any case, I'm working late tonight and probably Mom is, too
Jon: so you might have to survive on something else
Carrie: fine
Carrie: maybe i will
Jon: or walk to the store and spend $3
Jon: Sorry! Have a great evening! *smooches!*
Help! I need a new computer. →
Excellent recommendations from @tj. Though I haven’t had any problems with our 1TB Time Capsule here in the studio. If you need a router, it’s not a bad way to go. Though yeah, it’s a bit pricey.
Also, the new MacBook Pros are looking mighty sweet. Maybe a low end 13” MacBook Pro, configured with a larger hard drive and with the Apple LED flat panel display tossed into the...
