"Oh my ... what is that beeping?"
Geek Squad Agent
I apologize for the delay in posting my quote this week, but I'd like to explain. You see, yesterday, my new awesome laptop, Little Greeny, came down with BSOD, aka: Blue Screen of Death. Yes, that is actually the technical term. I've only had Little Greeny for about 3 weeks and I have no idea what happened. As soon as I recognized it was BSOD I called Geek Squad (came with the computer) and about 5 minutes into the convo, this week's quote was uttered. By more than 1 Geek Squad Agent. That quote was followed by:
"You need to take this into the Geek Squad guys asap."
2nd Geek Squad Agent
I had a gee? really? you don't say? moment, but I opted not to say that, as they were being nice to me. I packed up the kidlets and off to Best Buy we were, so Little Greeny could get into the computer hospital. And then I had to leave him there. So ... I am without computer for the time being. So if I'm a little lacking in my normal online-ness activities, I apologize. I am practicing my meditations so that I can stay Zen about the whole situation. Hope everyone else is having a better start to their week than I've had!
"Ohhhmmmmmmm. Ohhhhhmmmmmmm."

So frustrating! I hope greeny gets well soon!
Oh no! I hope the squad comes through for you. I'd be scared spitless if that happened to me! Ack!
Seriously, I thought I was the only one technologically cursed like this. It's why you don't see me with a laptop. PCs only. They don't blow up as easy.
But YAY that you got the warranty! Go, greeny, go!!!
lbdiamond - it is frustrating. hence the efforts toward meditating to maintain my Zen. I have to say, it is easier said than done to just sit around "ohhhhmmming."
T.Anne - I've decided that all the stress is in my head and if I think affirming, positive thoughts, all will be well. (this follows every bout of crawling into a corner and crying, of course.)
Wicked-Sassy - Yes. Go Greeny, Go! I'd rather not have to figure things out with one of your twins. And see--paying for extended warranties is totally worth it sometimes!
I don't know what I'd do without my own "Little Red". It would take more than ohhhhmmmmm's.
So good to meet you this weekend!
Erg! How annyoing. Hope Greeny is better soon. :)
Brodi - You'll notice my Ohhhhmmmms get longer with each breath. I'm about to pass out. Feels like I'm missing an arm or my right foot or something.
Sara - Yes. Annoying. And a little scary at what I could lose. :( Thinking positive thoughts!
The horror! No computer? I'm so glad you have Geek Squad.
ROFL. How's the meditation thing working out for ya? Get better soon Little Greeny!
Oh no! Feel better, little greeny! I feel like I need to go home and give MacBuddy a hug :(
NOOOO! That is super bad news! I hope greeny gets better soon! I don't know what I would do without my lappy. Probably cry and cry.
Oh, I hate computer woes! Good luck! :-)
Grrr. Computers. Hope you get your little greeny back in perfect shape soon!
I hope you get Little Greeny back soon. Good luck with the "Zen and the Art of Computer Absence."
Is greeny back home safely now? I hope so! *hugs* P.S. We should talk about Saturday. I need to give you directions!
