here's the day i hoped would never come...

my macbook is dead...well dying. it froze yesterday and then when i tried to re-boot it it would only make the welcome noise, and then go to a gray screen. i tried EVERYTHING to try and fix it, including doing a 'safe start' and going through the 'fsck' thing where you manually enter the code commands into the computer. hopefully i'll be able to take it to the apple store, and they can at least get the contents of my hard drive off of it. she is three years old, and i guess i'm due for a new computer anyways.

in the meantime, i have been sublimating my anger towards the computer gods with these:

they're called veggie straws and they're delicious.
