No, this is not a post about how I’m a fan of the Big Mac at McDonald’s (though that wouldn’t surprise you….); it’s a post about how I’m a big fan of my new MacBook Pro!
My sisters both switched to Macs at some point last year, and I have been a little jealous of them ever since. I decided I had to save my pennies until I could buy it with cash, and that moment came at the end of January…..until I had to cover the emergency dog expenses while my roommate was out of the country. She’s reimbursed me, so I dropped off my PC at the Apple Store for a data transfer while I was on vacation, and I’m currently fully entrenched in the tasks of switching from PC to Mac. I have absolutely no idea how a few things work, but I just have to be patient (not easy for someone who wants everything in its proper place RIGHT NOW) and figure it out little by little. I am THRILLED to have a computer with a battery life of longer than 7 minutes, and I’m excited about finally being able to conveniently Skype! If you’re a Mac user, you should comment on what your favorite features are so I can figure them out!
*This title comes from an inside joke that I’m not even a part of (my sister is), but I like the play on words, so I stole it. And the joke would be "lost in translation", so I won't even try.

But the real things in life haven’t changed. It is still best to be honest and truthful, to make the most of what you have, to be happy with simple pleasures, and to be cheerful and have courage when things go wrong. Laura Ingalls Wilder

Good Stories
I tell stories for very good reasons, she said, but I’m not going to tell you what they are or you’d start reading too much into them. StoryPeople

Hannah - welcome to Mac-ownership happy land. :) My favorite things as a new owner have been ... the touch pad which does different things depending on how many fingers I use and iphoto. Iphoto is the BEST INVENTION EVER :) ... the facial recognition thing is sweet! I actually really like iwork, too. It's so easy to navigate - let me know if you have any questions - I may not know the answer but love trying to figure things out! (Ichat is also great!)
