Dave is da bomb!

So, you may or may not have noticed a break in my posts...
About two weeks ago our computer started to wig out.
It was slower than me getting chased by a snail.
Going from one task to another took minutes, let alone reading blogs and posting on them.
Then last week, it happened.
The Blue Screen Of Death.
We sweat.
We were stuck in a three screen cycle.
We cried.
We thought about all the pictures - some from 2008 and all from 2009.
We yelled at each other.
We tried to stay calm, but we were seriously panicking.
Then, Matt called my brilliant cousin Dave.
Is there anything that Dave can't do?
He is so smart.
He put our minds at ease, his evening on hold, and he used his skills to fix our poor,
little,
pathetic,
rusty,
moldy,
decrepit
lap top.
And now it's working better than ever.
AND HE SAVED EVERYTHING ON IT!!!
Dave is my HERO!
And he didn't even roll one eye when I told him that the penciled in numbers on the top of my keyboard are from my library card, which I need easy access to.
Thanks Dave!

DAVE IS MY HERO TOO!

Thanks Dave!!

Second everything Jeanna said. Seriously we would all be in serious trouble with out him.... And I've been anxiously awaiting more posts. I'm super glad all of your pictures are safe. That is scary!

Dave I love you! I've missed Julie so much these past couple of weeks.

So glad that you could take the time to put the Earth back on its Axis.

Now if you could do something about stupid congress and the Health Care crap their peddling...I would personally commission a bronze statue of your likeness.

P.S. Julie I see that you are reading Uglies. I really liked that book. I'm reading the sequel Pretties right now. Post about what you thought of the book when you're done reading...I would love to get your take on it.

Becky said...

Ditto Jeanna! And Whitney and especially Holley! Something needs to be done about that healthcare circus.

I missed you Julie. When you told me your laptop was on the brink of death...and then that it had died...I cried. And now I cried again...happy tears.

Maybe I'll start blogging again too? We'll see.

Yaaaaaay!

Jeanna said...

I just finished Uglies, Pretties, and Specials.

I'm not great about writing deep thoughts on books, but let me just say, the "green" agenda in the books was making me roll my eyes to death.

But overall a fun read.

I'm so happy for you. Scary business. That's a good idea for your library number. I finally took the time to memorize mine because I was tired of looking it up. It's a very important number!
