Worst Memorial Day. Ever.
It has not even been a year that this last happened to me. Is it even possible?! (Apparently so.)
While working on my desktop Mac doing some proofing, I also had open my macbook trying to open up a slideshow, when suddenly my computer (macbook) went still. (For mac users, you know that twirly rainbow circle? It just kept going and going and I wasn't even able to click on the blue apple or any program at all.) I restarted it and now it won't even turn on. Well, I take that back. There is a flashing folder with a "?" mark inside of it. Same exact sort of deal as my desktop a year ago. Remember me posting about that? Yeah, I remember that, too.
I'm beyond upset. This may be my 5th (FIFTH!) mac in 7 years. Is that possible?! Mac is going to hear from me. Not that they'll listen, but I thought these computers were suppose to be reliable?! Not any of the ones Val gets her hands on. This is horrible. Horrible!
Now the rest of the day I will be sick to my stomach thinking about all I lost. And tomorrow it's a drive to the "mac authorized repair shop" to pay for them to tell me that I lost everything.
I'm doing 6 shoots in Chicago this weekend. I have to have a laptop. I'm going to order one today and hope it arrives by Thursday. Ho-hum, another mac. I hate perfect ingenious technology. I hate macs. (Harsh word, I know, but I can't think of a better one right now.)

Okay that totally sucks. :( You must really run your computers hard. I have never heard of anyone busting a mac like that. ((hugs)) I hope they can recover your stuff.
So sorry Val! Hope it all turns out ok! I'll be thinking of you in chicago this weekend (wishing I was there too!!) Can't wait to see some of the pics ;)

VAL!!!!!!! nooooooooooo... how does this keep happening??? We still have Matt's g4 from college! My parents use it. I just think you and Macs have a little something that isn't clicking! Not sure what it is... but at this point, I think Apple should just GIVE you a laptop!!! Hope you are enjoying the new one! :)
