And right there ... that's what would send me out to the electronics store to buy a whole new everything.
Ignorance + extreme laziness = bonus for Best Buy.

Just need to be careful.

Because sometimes the stores clerks DO abuse from clients who dont know anything about tech (and sell them stuff they never needed)

Went running. It wasssss so hot. Not as hot as the south but..

"Hot as Balls" ?

I just have to share this for the Monster and Men song.

Seen it already, looks adorable so far!

considering pixar.. I suppose we should expect a lot of "feels".

I finally got a new Laptop today, but I will have to get used to the new keyboard.

ohhh.. what did you get?

ohhh.. what did you get?

Lenovo G50, I had to use my mother's computer for the next 4 months and with my Lenovo Tablet. Since my previous Laptop one day crashed and we couldn't get it fixed. Thankfully I got it just in time for my first year in a community College. I'm planning on taking the Disney Dreamers Academy when I complete community college and when I head to a local college who does it. Especially after my third visit to WDW.

This might explain why I haven't been posting as often these especially during the night.

Bacon makes everything better.

So we tried to potty train the kid this weekend by taking away diapers. Epic fail! Thinking she is not ready yet.

Oh my. Sympathy like.
Been there, done that...3 times...!

 

[donaldtoo]

I've been on that list most of the year.

Yes, indeed. Sympathy like.

Thanks. My computer needs have always been minimal. My BS-detector finely tuned.

I've actually never bought a computer from Best Buy. I was just using them as an example most would recognize.

We've dealt with a small mom & pop store exclusively for the past 10 years or so. My cousin used to work there, and then a few years later when Hubby was working a gov't contract, he bought more than 100 desktop units from them. Out of fear of Mike, they would never take advantage of his wife.

Considering I had two kids, I only had to do it once.

Son #1 decided at 19 months that he was done with diapers, refusing to wear anything except at night.
Zero daytime accidents, and only 3 overnight BM incidents from that day forward. He never even made it out of size 4 diapers, as he insisted on Pull-Ups for bedtime.

And before you think I'm brilliant ... Son #2 insisted on wearing them until he was 38 months!

 

[Gabe1]

Just don't let @Gabe1 top here antenna with you when you're wearin' it...!

Ha!

 

[Gabe1]

Exactly!

 

[Gabe1]

hang on.. didn't these guys close these "attractions"? I mean.. I heard they had awful accidents left and right.

I don't believe so. I have not been there in the summer only the winter. My folks had a condo up that way and I went to college out that way too and I skied Chestnut many a time in my younger days until I started going to Colorado to ski.

Now one year I was following a couple of kids down the mountain in Breckenridge.. They collided. I could hit them, hit a tree or go off run. Off run wound up being a bad choice too. It was a mini cliff. Now that was a bad accident that had me in a ski basket being brought down the mountain by ski patrol. Not exactly a smooth sled ride. Ahhhh my youthful days. Didn't stop me, by spring break I was in Aspen. I really love Colorado.

For a weather/heat update down here in the lovely south.. We had a heat advisory today from 10am-7pm because our heat indexes were going to be 108-110. Our actuall temps have been 95-98 for 8 days straight and no real end in sight for the next 10 days and may see real temps of 99/100 next week. Would not live anywheres else though!

Oy. My goal is moving south. But ugh. I'd be hold up in my condo for that duration. We've had the highest dew points where people were permenently dropping like flies but that is unusual for us in the North. This week we are doing 85ish but finally the humidity and dew points are lower but promising to return by the weekend.

I keep telling myself it is practice for my goal of moving to the south, plus it is better than snow.

 

[Gabe1]

I'm with you there @Gabe1 so don't feel left out or behind alone. Hahaha

Right there with ya sister friend. Reading your posts at the moment I am glad my DD didn't go to Tulane. Oy.

 

[Gabe1]

Hahaaa...!
Mickey wearin' a rain pancho!
Glad you got it back...!

Me too. Got him on my Mother Daughter trip. Like him. Plus I like those Yellow Poncho's. The new clear, "Disney Parks" just not the same.

 

[donaldtoo]

My socks do not match my dress. Not even by early 70's standards.
And of course, I am very prim and proper. Like always.

I still don't know if I got it right...?

Sheesh dropping like flies and not even close to our scorching temps and dewpoints! Craziness but yall are not used to it up there like you said. I try to
Stay in the a/c especially during the daylight hours as much as possible. And Yes so much better than snow and freezing cold!! We get occasional rare snow occurrences in the winter but not enough to really accumlulate. lol
