Where the Hell Have I Been?

So where the hell have I been?

I know my loyal reader (whoever you are) out there was ready to send out a search party. Fear not...I'm back. My computer crashed, my grandfather died, I've been fixing up my grandmother's house and just about anything else that could happen, happened. But, I'm back and man have I got a lot to talk about.

First off...I got a new computer.

Yes dear friends, your boy is now "bougie" on a whole 'nother level...I got a Macbook. Personally, I never felt glam enough to even go in the Apple Store, but after resuscitating my windows laptops (plural) over and over for the past two years, I finally put some money in Steve Jobs' plate.

Now that I've joined the cult, I must say that I am loving the new life. I have been through maybe five Windows PCs in as many years and it was quite the experience to boot this baby up and it just came the hell on. There was no "Would you like to activate your free trial of Norton/ Corel Picture/ MS Office 2010/ AOL/ Yahoo Messenger."

I never noticed how much of an advertising whore Microsoft was until I bought this Mac. What's even trippier is the fact that I've had this thing for about a week and haven't had to reboot it yet. I close the lid, open it back up and shit keeps working. I'm going bananas in here.

So anyway, there are some challenges to this thing. In many ways, switching from PC to Mac is like screwing outside of your race. You know someone who's done it, but you kinda have to see for yourself. The same thing that worked on one, doesn't work on the other and you feel the need to brag to someone.

So anyway, I wont bore you with the details, but it is cool to have something that friggin works. The coolest thing of em all is being able to work on this thing six-eight hours straight without charging it. My old Sony Vaio gave you a good hour and a half before giving up the ghost. And that was with the power settings turned as conservative as possible. Now...please don't let this damn thing break since I've hyped it up so much.
