Well, the saga of my sad mac continues. Brought that sucker into the 5th ave Apple Store (the only one of the 3 in NYC that had available time in the afternoon). I forget how deceptively heavy the iMacs are and how sharp those edges are - couple that with some light rain and the screen covered by two small garbage bags and it was a dicey proposition getting there but it made it safe and sound.

The Genius, Jason, was very great, as they usually are in my experience but said that he had never seen anything like what my Mac was doing. So there was no way to know if they had the parts necessary to fix it, it might be gone from 5-7 days! Oh NOES! I did get the ProCare subscription which helps put me at the front of the queue and I’ve got my fingers crossed that they’ve everything in stock that they need. We’ll see. Sigh. Cross your fingers and send me some positive vibes.

In miscellaneous good news, I just was perusing my Google Reader recommendations (it does that now, dontchaknow?) and what did I find at the top of the list? Why this very blog! That’s pretty cool. I’m glad that Reader figured out that if I read everything I read that I probably also would want to read my blog. :) I mean that without sarcasm, too!
