Surviving Without My iMac

  • 10 Mar, 2010

It’s now day 4 without my iMac and I’m surviving quite well. You see, my iMac screen decided that a yellow vertical line was cool and I didn’t agree. So I called Apple and my screen was on recall so they’re fixing it for free. The downside is that it’ll take 5-7 days. So I’m […]

Starbucks & a Dirty Diaper

The other day the wife and I were out with Lily when we had to stop and change her in the car. We didn’t have any issue changing her but when I realized that my cup holders were turning into dirty diaper holders, we couldn’t help but laugh. I’m pretty sure this is not what […]
