A brief rant about "Genius"

So my computer has been on the fritz for the past week and now it is in the Mac hospital with those "Geniuses" getting the hard drive or something scary called the logic board replaced. First off, those "Geniuses" kinda bug me. I was in the Providence store 3 times in 5 days trying to get the same problem fixed and these dudes, while they certainly know more than me, seem kind of clueless and also really slow. One of them thought a simple software update was the cause of my troubles but nooo, as soon as I get home my computer freezes again and comes back on with a big fat ? and then an ominous



Then there's this other thing. Were you aware that all it takes to become a genius is a 2 week training course? I also did some impromptu investigative reporting and learned that there is not a single female genius in all of Providence Place (the mall). Granted, there are only 4 Geniuses total, but still, I don't think I'm comfortable with this definition they seem to be working with.

Then, Google had the nerve to disable my fledgling blog because they thought it was spam! Ugh. I was so sad. So sad. And this is when I realized I am completely and totally addicted to my computer and the internets. So much so that I am in the library now, writing this, instead of doing something productive so I won't have to do it after I see BRIGHT EYES tonight. OK, enough ranting.

On the upside, I am seeing Bright Eyes tonight and I also want to thank that special someone who hooked me up with the brand, spanking new Kings of Leon (not out for a month) after reading the blog...Review and tidbits will be forthcoming cuz you know I'll be rocking out to it on the way to the show tonight.
