I am excited and slightly nauseous about a few big purchases that I am about to make. My 6 year old MacBook is pretty much dead. It doesn't connect to the internet, the battery always feels like it is on fire, and the OS is so old that it doesn't know what an iPhone is nor does it understand how to run Netflix. That being said, I have a beautifully configured 15 inch MacBook Pro with a 2.6Ghz Quad-core processor waiting in my cart at apple.com. And I think tonight is the night I will actually go to the checkout. Who knows, maybe my next blog post will come from the new machine!
My next adventure in to adulthood (aka buying expensive sh*t) is purchasing a new car. My Toyota Corolla lease will be up in a few months and I'm going to need a new whip. I'm dead set on buying a hybrid and at this point in my search, the Hyundai Sonata Hybrid is at the top of my list. I was able to test drive it last weekend and it was very cool! You are able to see when you are using the battery versus the engine and even witness the battery charging as you press the breaks. The design is sleek and the interior is very ergonomic.
Now if you will excuse me, I need to go jump around with excitment and then go purge in the restroom. Oy.
