On my way home last night I stopped at Staples to deliver some documents I need to have bound. After dropping the items off and completing the forms, I headed to the exit. Something caught my eye. A beautiful new computer monitor. On Sale.
My gaze traveled beyond the new monitor to the computer section. Beautiful spankin’ new laptops, programs, keyboards. *sigh* Oh how I would love to have these new gadgets. How these gadgets would help me keep on top of this, yet still spend more time with Carter without my back turned to him, throwing crackers over my shoulder.
While relishing the thought of scooping up everything insight, I had a revelation. I am officially a full on, no holds barred, geek.
I. am. a. GEEK. (yet oh! so! glamorous!)
(I can’t believe it. I said it. I professed my geekdom to The Internets.)
I no longer yearn for those coveted high heels, instead? A wireless keyboard and mouse. Nor do I crave the latest vanilla berry lip gloss, but a new wireless router.
I. am. there! I am a full fledged geek. (For the third time! This is almost therapeutic.)
I just hope in Carter’s eyes, I will be the lovable geeky, yet oh-so-cool mom! *shrug* A girl can dream right?
Thirteen Things on now my Wish List
1. Wireless router
2. Wireless keyboard and mouse for my desktop
3. External hard-drive for all this stuff
4. A new lap top computer with all the bells and whistles (Don’t think I could convert to a MacBook yet though. I have sentimental attachment to PCs) - pink would be an extra bonus!
5. This cute little mouse pad.
6. Photoshop CS2
And so you don’t think I’ve totally gone off the edge!
7. Lululemon Hula Crops
8. Rimmel Vinyl Lip Gloss in any light brown coffee colour
9. Coke Zero. I am craving so bad right now!!
10. I wanna try Guitar Hero (since everyone talks about it - You got it? Invite me over M’Kay?)
11. I wanna play with a Wii (Oh, you have that too? Can I invite myself over? I’ll bring coffee!)
12. One night with this guy:
Well, at least one night. With handcuffs, whips, Cool Whip and chocolate.
13. Ben and Jerry’s Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough to hog to myself after I’m finished with No. 12
Great list! I am so happy now that I bought a wireless router. It makes things so much easier! They now make Cherry Coke Zero (YUM) Have a great weekend!

But perhaps you should make him leave his bongo drums at home.

The wireless mouse & rimmel lip gloss don’t cost that much, go out and splurge!

hehehe. You sound like my techy-pal who fixes all the boo-boos I make on my site; except, he’s not all that interested in your #12 and #13. But see, that’s where I come in! Matt is totally hot, hot hot!

Oh, what I wouldn’t give for one night with #12, too. *sigh*
June 28th, 2007 at 12:22 pm
I’d like one night with that guy too. Okay, maybe two nights.
June 28th, 2007 at 1:14 pm
I could go for a night with #12 too!!
June 28th, 2007 at 1:19 pm
I think we could all keep #12 pretty damn busy if we tried! We’d have his calendar booked solid for at least a good 6 months or so!

Go for the lipgloss. What can it hurt???
June 28th, 2007 at 2:08 pm
He is defintely one night material. And that’s pretty much it. (please wear protection - we don’t know where it’s been! GACK.)
:0D
Just kidding. well no. I’m not but
LOVE YA GeeK!

I want to spend a night with Josh Duhamel. Oh my goodness, what I would do to him.
And I wish I were a bigger geek. I’m so technologically clueless!
June 28th, 2007 at 3:47 pm
Damn girl I want a night with him too.
Great TT !!

I’m the BIGGEST GEEK, too. But, geek=cool these days!
And, I’m NOT into Mat McConnadhaieoa;djisa (however you spell his last name!!! ;))
