Birthday present

So I've been incredibly busy for the past few weeks and have sons to write about. I've been saving pictures and stories for when I had time to sit down and write them out for you all. I also have had TERRIBLE allergies and took a Benadryl not so long ago. Now my eyes have quit itching and watering enough that I can see my computer, but I don't know how coherent my thoughts will be.


My birthday was this week and it was WONDERFUL! Dave is the most amazing husband in the world. Two weeks ago I had a really bad day where everything that could go wrong did and then some. I don't remember everything that happened which is probably for the better, but I do remember having to do work stuff on the computer and it had a virus. My computer's video card was fried so I had been using Dave's computer. The straw that broke the camels back as they say was the virus caused the web browser to reroute ANY address I tried to go to to either a mortgage broker yellow pages type page or super graphic porn. It was so disturbing and I finally had a serious breakdown sobbing. It just so happened that Dave's sister had come by to pick up her new Stephanie Meyer book so she was witness to my meltdown.

I went to work needing it SO bad (I teach a fitness class and working out always makes me feel better if I've had a bad day) but it happened to be the big annual CUC family pool party/ BBQ which I didn't get the invite to (because I only work evenings). So instead of getting to work out I found out that everyone was at a great party that nobody told me about. I felt like such a loser and went home, crying. When I got home Brice and Mary (Dave's sister) had told Dave about my crap hole of a day and so he decided to give me my birthday present early.

I was so excited to open this box I could hardly do it fiast enough.















Look what I got! It was so light when I took it out of the box I was confused for a second as to whether or not it was actually a full laptop or maybe it was just a new case/screen to fix my old one.
I don't know much about computers, but I know mine is awesome because it is lighter than Dave's and it's faster at letting me open stuff. I have no idea what this means, but Dave says it's a Dell Inspiron 1525 with 2GHz, a core 2 duo processor, 3 gig RAM, and 120 gig hard drive. When I ask what that means, he says "That mean's it's one sexy machine!"
I love having my own computer again. I am also pleased to announce that Dave was able to get the virus off his computer (he got it while trying to find a video of the Olympic opening ceremony footprint fireworks since I missed them). We are once again one computer happy family.
Well as I said I have a ton to talk about, but I'm going to write different posts for them.

Dang girl, that is one sexy machine. I want a 120 gig hard drive. I only have an 80 and I need more ram too--hmmm, I might have to invest in something similar. Lucky you!!!

Okay, I read the bottom before I realized the top matched it. What a freaking babe your husband is!!! He's totally in tune. I hate computers. I swear mine gets slower by the second. Sigh. I'm really jealous right now! Nice Job Dave! It is a beautiful computer Camy. You totally deserve it! Oh, and I swear you look skinnier every moment. You need some chocolate girl.
