The Results are in!!!

by Heidi on May 2, 2008

The results are in and the new mac that we met yesterday? Ladies and gentlemen….drumroll please…

Meet…STELLA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Submitted by the lovely Katelin @ Pretty Sandy Feet – send me your address and I’ll send you your prize!!!

Stella I believe, is a perfect name. They were all perfect names what am I talking about! But you guys chose, and the mac beauty is named Stella, which as I told boyfriend last night is a pretty awesome name because while it can be a classy name that makes you think of some roaring 20′s flapper, it can also give you the image of some waitress at some dingy truck stop diner on I-66 in the middle of bumblefuck nowhere with a mullet and a cigarette hanging from her mouth asking in a scratchy voice “how can I help ya big boy?” with a slight southern drawl. Which, not gonna lie is kind of what I was going for. Maybe not truck stop waitress exactly but come on…my ipod is named Bertha. I don’t exactly pick pretty, classy, make you think of Audrey Hepburn kind of names.

So Stella she is. I was tempted to bring her into work today but for my own productivity level…and since I’m going shopping for Gold Cup dress tonight after work since I was economically stimulated and have some bling bling to play with (after I pay some bills…damn) I didn’t want to lug her around because while she’s lighter than my HP? Let’s face it miss Stella is no macbook air.

You can bet though, that this shopping trip will be SPEED SHOP galore so that I can get home and play with my new toy. Last night boyfriend and I trekked over to NE to go to a Pre-engagement seminar put on by the archdiocese of Washington which was a great talk by a brilliant guy. We talked about it after getting dinner at some tiny italian place on C street which was delish, and more and more, I am constantly reminded that this dude? Is perfect for me.

We got home a little later than I had hoped (you don’t go to those tiny italian places for the service…lets just leave it at that) and within about 20 minutes? I was asleep on the couch. So much for playing with my mac :( Tonight, I need to transfer files (which might take forever given the insane slowness of our internet connection because well…verizon sucks a lot.) and finish downloading that damn MS Office update that keeps STOPPING because did you know? When a mac goes into sleep mode? It practically shuts down?! Gah!

This is going to be an adjustment.

But totally worth it!!!

Later today…get ready for my review of Trish’s fabulous book “He loves me, He loves me Not” and my first Pay-It-Forward contest!!!

And today? I like exclamation points!!!!!!

!!!!!!! see? !!!!!!!!!!!!

/end tangent
Anyhow, I have a lil bit o’ work to get done, so until we meet again dear freaders :)
