stick with me.

Have I ever mentioned that I have the best in-laws ever? No really, I do. I'll fight you on it. And so will my Aunt, cause she thinks they're the best too. They are fantastic and I am seriously so blessed to have them as my "additional" Mom and Dad.
So anyways, I was all prepared to try and bribe my father-in-law to buy me a new laptop. Did you see that whole, "Buy a PC, get an X-box" deal? Yeah, well, you see my father-in-law has been practically bursting at the seams to get Ryan an X-box. [Boys and Call of Duty. Ugh.] So I saw that commercial, and the gears starting turning. We were talking on the phone a couple of days ago, and just as I was about to present my marvelous plan he's throws me this curve ball...
Dad: So, do you want my "old" computer? That one I practically just bought?
Me: YES! (In my squeaky-I'm-too-excited-to-talk voice)
Dad: Oh, and it has the latest and greatest version of photoshop on it.
Me: I love you.

So there you have it. Not only do I have the greatest in-laws ever, but I'm also abouts to have me a new laptop! Wooot woooot!
Stick with me guys. Just another month or two and I'll be back to regular really regular updates.  Ones with pictures and stuff. I can't wait.

In other news:
1. I finished my first roll of Diana film. Oooo. I'm so excited to get it developed! Aren't you excited to see the pictures? You better be. Or I'll punch you in the face.

2. I get yelled at at work everyday. You know what I got yelled at for today? Getting a customer red pepper flakes and garlic powder for his pizza. The stuff that he asked for. Specifically. You know what I got yelled at for a couple of days ago? Answering the phone. These people know how to run a business, let me tell you.
Also, I cried today because I realized I won't be able to quit as soon as I thought I would.
Sometimes life really sucks and you just want to kick in the shins and be like, "STUPID LIFE!" But you can't.
Cause life doesn't have shins.

Stupid.

Dear Comcast,
I love you. I really really love you. If you were a boy errr, my husband, I'd kiss you. A big ol' wet sloppy kiss, cause I'm silly like that. Remember that one time that you kept me waiting over 3 weeks to set up our internet and then finally gave us the news that you don't have the rights to this building? Remember how you knew that all along and just kept us sitting here waiting and waiting aaaannnndd waaaaaaiting? Remember how I don't love you at all and I would never ever kiss you? Even if someone bet me one hundred bucks. I would actually break into you're shiny skyscraper headquarters and vomit on your toilets and spit on your floors. And the maybe steal a tv or two.
Love,
Nancy




So. I'm back. ish.
Yes, we finally have internet.
Yes, my dog did chew the power cord for my computer. So I essentially still live with out internet. I can use Ryan's laptop to check my facebook and email and such, but it takes me a while to put together a blog post and I don't like to be a computer hog.


I have lots of posts in my head. Posts have been piling up for months now. We'll see if I ever get to them, I might just start with the present and never "catch-up" with all the posts I've missed. Except, I'll most definitely be posting the pictures of a new dress I got that is just darling. My friends grandmother complimented me on it and said that she loved my style. Most people would probably be like "Oh no, I better change something." But for me? A grandma complimenting my style? Perfection.



Also.
If you ever come to Philadelphia, do me a favor and don't go to Pete's Famous Pizza. They don't deserve the business. One passerby on the street said what I feel perfectly, but the language was too foul to pass on. Use your imagination. And while you're at it, pray that I will be able to quit. quit. QUIT. soon. More on that later.
