I know, I know, it's been awhile, my apologies. A new blog post popped into my mind a few times over the last week but I just never took the time to sit down and write it. That's a lie, I wrote a few of them but, they are the posts never to be posted. You know, the ones I write when I want to send a message out to the world (usually because something has just happened that irritated me or because I need to vent about how someone is making me NUTS!!!). Anyway, those won't get posted, it's not appropriate.

I have been having a bit of a rough week, just not feeling myself. Sorry's to those of you I have neglected. Get over it.

So, what's going on here lately? Not much at all actually. Jeff somehow managed to convince me that we (read: he) needed a laptop. I already told you I haven't been myself this last week and I think he took advantage of me. Nice eh?! Anyway, we went and bought one. He made sure he had me in the truck and on the way into town before I could change my mind of course.

We already have this "grand poobah" computer but he wants a laptop for when he goes out of town for work; however, since the purchase of "the other woman", both computers have been running. No joke, he sits at the computer desk and uses both machines at once. Needless to say, I put an end to that and set my energy wasting husband straight (with Julie's help of course).

Although Julie may not live with us anymore, she is still the one we both run to when we need mediation (read: I need someone on my team). I know that i can depend on her for that and then she can be the bad guy, not me. Oh, I hope Jeff doesn't read this.

Did I mention the argument about the laptop bag? Jeff wants a backpack (I think he thinks he is still 15) and I absolutely refuse. We are adults, adults that don't go backpacking I might add, what on earth do we need a backpack for? His response, "They are way cooler."

"No" - that's my response.

We did seem to entertain the sales guys though, one of them actually had tears running down. I think it is because he felt my pain (the pain of arguing with my 30 year old husband about what looks cool) or, he was totally jealous that Jeff was so lucky to snag such an amazing wife!!!!
