Default Update Dead Computer and Now Engaged

Hey all, life has been crazy lately. My macbook pro crashed and I have not been able to get it working again. New hard drive and still having issues. Going to try a few things and see what happens. That has been keeping me busy.

Also on saturday October 29 I proposed to my girlfriend and she said yes. It was also the same day my mac book crashed. It was an amazing day and we are getting married August 22nd. August 22nd was my grandparents anniversary, and I could not think of a better way to honor them.

On top of that I took on an extra position at work that will help me down my carreer path and provides a little extra scratch.

Looks like we will be selling her car, ford focus, and she will drive the monte while I drive the suburban. It will save us over 300 a month. Hopefully I will also be able to get the camaro up and running.

Well hope everyone is well and I will try to get the computer up and running soon.

Todd

First, that statement is POPPYCOCK!! I work as a PC tech and all the MAC guys brag about how the MACs NEVER crash and NEVER fail.... I refuse to believe it!!!

Just kidding (though I do hear MAC guys brag about MACs never fail). I hope you are able to get your issues panned out.

More importantly, congrats on the engagement AND the change in job (more for the engagement).
