it lives!!!

My computer, not me.  My computer crashed a few days ago which was why I really haven’t updated much.  I was having issues with the time of day clock (think I wrote about that before) and someone said my BIOS probably needed to be updated.  Seemed simple enough.  Went to my manufacturer website, downloaded via the driver updater, viola.  Only not so viola because upon reboot it was a black screen with an error message.  Fail.  So I took it to the store to have it looked at by a computer tech.  They told me to give up and buy a new computer.  I definitely don’t have those funds.  Lo and behold, my dork in aluminum foil got a promotion.  Isaac had one of his brothers who is a computer guru look at it and he managed to save it so I have my baby back and they bought me a few more months before I’ll have to buy a new one.  Then on top of that wonderful news Isaac got one of his other brothers to say that for $20 they’ll do my inspection and guarantee a pass and he’ll help do the work on the car for a discounted cost!!  

Yup, my dork in aluminum foil is officially a knight in shining armor because those were 2 huge worries on my mind.  

And he says the sweetest things!  The other day I was trying a new eyeliner, the liquid kind which I haven’t worn since jr high because I suck at putting it on and he didn’t even notice so I did complain a bit about it.  One of the girls came up and took my side but then he came back with a great save of "I don’t notice her make up because I notice how beautiful her eyes are and her wonderful smile".  It made both of us girls melt and go awwwwwwwww.  She told him that was a nice save but the silly thing I know he was being genuine because he just shook his head and gave her this look like "if you say so".  

Mom is on my nerves.  She made a comment about my weight IN FRONT OF ISAAC!!!  OhEmEffGee!!!!!!  How freaking embarrassing and hurtful!  Who does that??  Seriously?  Is she trying to undermine my relationship?  She’s already done a great job of destroying my self esteem.  Here I am with this great boyfriend and she says crap like that in front of him.  Wow,  Just wow.  I was pissed.  And Isaac saw it right away, I didn’t bother to hide it when it was just him and I because of course I wanted to know that his opinion wasn’t going to change because my mom decided to be a bitch.  It wasn’t and he proceeded to sit there and cheer me up.

Work has been going smoothly but I’m working a lot of course since it’s the holidays and both the pharmacy and the store or open until midnight now.  I had 2 midnight shifts last week and 2 this week plus closing on Christmas eve but I’m off on Christmas and don’t work until the afternoon on the day after so I can hit up my after Christmas sale at B&B in the morning hopefully.  Then I’m off on New Years day so I don’t have to worry so much about New Years Eve.  Not sure what my plans will be yet but I don’t want to be home this year.  Maybe come home afterwards and cuddle lol.  

But we’ll see.  Okay off to bed, have to be up early to run errands before work tomorrow.  Tuesday is baking more cookies before my midnight shift at 4pm.

Women are quick to discount are honest reactions as “saves”, that always bugged me too 🙂 Glad your computer is fixed! I hate tech store guys because they never have any idea what they’re doing and either overcharge or insist on buying a new one when you don’t need to. ryn: glad I’m not the only one that feels that way at least 🙂

i am happy your relationship is going so well yay! i know what you mean about the mom thing lol.
