well today i went to see the new iBook at a local Apple retailer. whoa.
it is BIG. i mean BIG. i'm currently on a laptop thats about i dunno.
13 inches wide? maybe? the iBook is like 15 inches wide or something. but
that screen is NICE. 12.1 inch diagonal, active matrix. very crisp display.
its a cool little laptop. well not so little. cool stuff tho. i like how
the lid opens up like a cell phone. kinda weird at first, cuz yr looking for
a latch or something, but you just lift it up...
well last night, after i posted my black memorial page to greg moore, i went to
visit a friend who i've not seen or talked to in years. she is goin through
a rough period in her life, she just realized that the man she was engaged to
is a complete jerk, and that she shouldnt talk to him. i mean they've been
broken up for some time, but shes still been hanging out and stuff with him,
and now shes realized that its just not good. on top of that, her apartment
building just went condo, and she had to be out by this morning. so... she was
in the process of moving 40 miles back home to a rural community that is home
to Malt-O-Meal...
shes gonna stay at her mom's for a while, but that too is a really bad situation
cuz her brother and nephew live there and her mom's like "theres no room for
you" and her mom is also on a self-destructive path of alcoholism... bad stuff.
shes worried for her nephew's sake.
i'm thinking about letting her rent out a room here, cuz we get along well.
a few years ago, she had talked bout moving in here, but i dont remember what
happened with that. we'll see... she never was really good at calling, i
stopped calling her and thats how we lost touch...
