The Edge

These have become increasingly few and far-between for me recently. I believe things will get better. I have to believe this, or ... well, I'm screwed, basically. But, before they get better, I expect they will get a whole lot worse. Not trying to be negative. Just realistic. And, thus far, this is what I've experienced. >.O

But, today, I actually have genuine happy-sqwees. Happy-sqwees that I don't even have to work at being excited about.

Happy-Sqwee the First:

Cels!!! I got some plastic pretties in the mail today. Three Orphen Hanken cels and one production cel, which is an A1 (I think End) cel. I am so, so, so excited about it and super relieved to have them in hand.

Happy-Sqwee the Second:

Hubster surprised me this evening with an early b-day gift. An iPad 2!!! I am over-the-moon excited about it. I was so reluctant about getting the first iPad. It was one of those "trendy" things that I felt guilty over wanting. I'm not sure how to explain it, but sometimes I'm weird like that. Anyhow, I did want one. In a baaaaad way. And hubby got one for me. I absolutely love it. I use it every day, and pretty much always carry it with me. When the new one came out, I knew I wanted one in that bizarre, shiny-eyed way that seldom strikes me. But when it hits, it hits HARD. I'm so, so, so thrilled with this, and can't wait till it's all loaded up and ready to go! Woot!

zOMG!!! Hubby unexpectedly surprised me with an iPad this AM. I told myself I didn't want one. I told myself that I should not want one. But ... yeah ... I wanted one. I found myself drawn to the iPad display every time we went to either Best Buy or the Mac Store. Even though I knew it made me evil, in a way ... and even though I knew I should feel a little ashamed.

(And here I thought I was hiding it all so well!)

And now?

I LOVE THIS THING!!!

Yes, I am an evil, evil techno junkie, hopelessly hooked on the shiney, *exudes shame vibez*
