I'm a mommy now...

Yep, it's true. My brand-new bundle of joy arrived this week. Like Gwyneth Paltrow, I'm now the proud mama of my very own little Apple. Well, it's actually a reincarnated little Apple, but it's still precious to me. I just hope that I can care for her the way any mother would. It's a scary new venture, people, but I'm ready to take on the challenge.

(For my less pop-culture savvy readers: I bought my very first computer---an Apple/Mac iBook. It's refurbished. I'm a bit scared of it, but I have not been given a spirit of fear...)

Welcome to the world of "everything actually works when you need it to." Such a refreshing change.

Oh, sister King. Whew! I thought for a minute you had ... oh, never mind. I get it now. That's all that matters.

I'm glad you are a proud new "mommy" (wink, wink).

This has been Harvey Brown.

Harvey,
I almost didn't know who it was because you didn't clue me in with the usual, "This is Harvey Brown...."

Good think you signed off that way or I might have just been left in the dark!

Macs are great. Just as Hilary said, it works when you need it to. So different than the PC's I've had.

Good luck with little Apple King.
