All Systems Go

I woke up this morning and wanted to send a text message from my computer but when I pressed the space bar to wake it up, the computer was dead.  Would not turn on.  I started to hyperventilate.

OH NOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooo…….

I called Apple Support.  Nothing they could do over the phone but set up an appointment with the nearest Apple Store.  So I went to my appointment and right as I walked in, some nice boy asked me if I needed help carrying my ten ton computer that I’d been lugging five miles by now.  "Yes, please!"  As we got to the top of the stairs, they called my name.  "Here I am!"  Yes!

As it turns out, my power source was shot but it was an easy fix and I left with my computer fixed within 30-45 minutes.  Yes!

I worked all day lugging shit around and decided at the spur of the moment that I deserved new shoes.  So I went to Niemen’s to get a pair of calf skin zebra print open toed Manolo’s but they didn’t have any.  I chose a cute beige and pink pair of Gucci’s instead.  Beautiful.  I handed over my Visa Check Card and the salesman tisked me.  "We only take the Nieman’s card, American Express or personal checks."

What?!  I’ve shopped at Niemen’s for years and how do I never remember this important tidbit of information?!  So I casually say that I’ll have to send Brad by one of these days to put it on his AmEx.  The helpful salesman said, "If you can call him, we can take his card number over the phone."

"Touché," I say.  "I have his card number right here!"

But I didn’t have his security code.  So, I called Brad and woke him from a nap to get the four magic numbers and he asks, "Don’t you need my card number?"

"Is it 4567.4567.4567.456," or whatever and he exclaims, "How did you know that?!"

Please, I’m Kathleen mother-fucking Newlove in the HIZ-OUSE!  Who do you think I am?  Of course I have the number!

I left with yummy new shoes.  Yay!  And let me tell you, they are SUPER DUPER CUTE!
