I haven't forgotten the Wanda and Darryl saga and I will get back to it, but my computer crashed right before we left for Tybee Island last month. I'm writing this on Paigey's computer, which she has been kind enough to basically just leave in the studio for me (thanks, Paigey!) but I use a different program to compose my blog posts and I don't want to load it on her laptop. My little green laptop is in a brown truck on its way to Illinois for a warranty repair. Since I have a part-time job I use it for as well as just the general tomfoolery, I have decided I need a completely redundant backup system (and a tax deduction). Tomorrow is the beginning of tax-free days so I think we are going to get a backup laptop. Maybe, maybe not. I have been asked to take on more part-time work as a long-term temporary thing so the logic of a new laptop has become more compelling.
I figure I will probably be back over the weekend on the new laptop. I have to get either red, blue or pink. Not my favorites, but I think maybe red. I would really rather have orange or the same green, but those are not available. Neither is plain old black. I think brown would be cool, but that's not happening, either. Oh well, as long as it works, right? It's not like you can even see what color it is when you are using it, after all.
In other news, Cordelia flew off to Manhattan earlier this week. We had a lovely time and took lots of photos of the party she had last Saturday night. It was wonderful to see her again and I hope she comes back to visit soon. Two of my three children are currently getting their wisdom teeth extracted, but their father is doing Dad duty and handling that. I must be off to pick up their prescriptions, though, so that they are ready and waiting upon their triumphant return from general anesthesia.
I will be back with more Wanda and more Darryl. I can't say when precisely, but I will be back!
I had an amazing time!!! Thanks again for everything!!
