So the week was fucked. I knew this by Monday when I couldn't sleep and repeatedly woke up at 2.30 am to battle my allergies. It culminated on Thursday morning when it left me with a significant red eye that closely resembled a red eye but thank goodness it wasn't. But the week just sucked.
Sunday I went to the Dogwood Festival which was a little disappointing for me, not only because the art was expensive but it was filled with families, couples which was a little numbing for m, and it just seemed llike any other open market day in Atlantic Station, so I wasn't missing anything.
Then I sent some aimless texts to that guy I met at Strip. Neither here nor there text messages, I should have realized something was up when he told me he was at Walmart -which single guy shops at Walmart.. Probably there with his wife and kids. Tssk, Tssk...
Tuesday...no Jay Z concert, instead chose to go to the Georgia Association of Paralegals dinner. big mistake, huge mistake, waste of $30, waste of time, waste of my precious evening. Huge mistake. Then...as if the evening couldn't get worse, I called the guy above, and left a message but he didn't call me back!
Wednesday, still have not slept, went to work groggy. And came home during lunch to grab a nap. Noticed some beeping from my computer didn't think nothing of ot. Came home in the evening and turned the computer, still beeping. Fiddled with it for 2 hours, succumbing to calling the help desk at Apple, and it turns out my harddrive is fried. Yep, fried. It's been 18 months with that iMac that cost me $1700 and I come home and my harddrive is mysteriously fried.
After that I have nothing to say except those Mac ads are fake. They should not make those assertions in an ad, almost like a guarantee and then you buy the overpriced things and voila, they mysteriously fry their 256G harddrive. Mac had claimed that they can diagnose their problems and let you know, at least give me some kind of warning. A $2000 machine just frys within 18 months, that's fucked.
It got worse on Thursday because I had to schedule a service appointment with the fuckers at Apple store. Just to get there and a thousand Ipods, Macbooks and iPhones are scheduled with repairs. No shitting! I just felt like my eyes were opened to a strange realization...Apple products are just as fucked as PC/Windows products. Those commercials with Justin Long making fond of PC, as effective as they may seem, are not true to type, and dare I say, a crock of shit. Take it from the girl who spent $2000 of her hard earned money on one just to have the harddrive fry for no FUCKING REASON.
It got worse on Friday. Sent a last resort aimless text to that guy. Why did I bother, right? Because I am just trying. Trying to stop being single, trying to make an effort which I don't normally do, trying to make new friends. And it seemed like we had a connection, or maybe my hopelessly single self read too much into it, but it did seem that way, and for the first time in a while I thought this might actually be the start of something good. But I guess not. He never even responded to my text.:(
Then my mother called to tell me the Bar people rejected my application for insufficient information. No shitting. My week just kept getting better and better.
Saw Keanu's new movie - Street Kings. The high point of my week even though the movie wasn't great, but he looked amazing, and his acting was right on it. Maybe he's wondering, why the fuck I am contacting these guys that are not worth my time. Yes, Keanu I am wondering the same thing too.
Decided not to step out of the house this Saturday, lest more bad news come meet me.
