gone.

i know. i've been gone for awhile from this space.

it's not that i meant to. but. well. summer and back to school. and sports and dance and technical issues got in the way. big. technical issues. like my apple shriveled up and died. dead. went to the great place in heaven where all good macs go to spend their after life.

yes. it died.

i fought with it for a good month. encouraging it. pleading. begging. please. please. please. turn on. but it wouldn't...it would only spin in a circle. and make a horrible noise. worries. so many worries. would i lose all my files? (no backed up). all 28,000 of my pictures? (i know. i know. I need to delete). no. also backed up. so after a it went away. to get evaluated. fixed. but then the diagnosis. and then another diagnosis. and then it came home. never to work again.

so the process began. what to get. what to replace it with?

i wanted the 27" monitor. he didn't think i needed it. we compromised in the end. got the 27" monitor and the magic trackpad. so much better than the mouse.

so. there will be no new shoes. this fall. or purses. or whatever. but there is a new member of the family in the studio. that's it for now. i'll be catching up over the next few days. all those fun summer memories, right? but for now. let's just say hello...
