Personal Questions
I have a few things to discuss and some pics!
So, I officialy have my computer back and it's almost the same but not quite. One, because it has inifinitely more memory now but also because one of the speakers isnt working. They were both working when I took it in and I'm not sure what the freak at the MacCenter was doing to my speakers, but I am pretty determined to find out by doing an awful lot of yelling and maybe a bit of cursing (possibly in both english and spanish).
Speaking of which, picking up the computer from the Apple hospital was really bizarre. First because one of the first things the guy who was handling the process asked me about a million personal questions including but not limited to:
"How is work?"
"I called you a bunch of times. How come you didn't answer?"
"There's no one at home to pick up the phone when you're not there?"
So now here are some of the things he knows about me:
- I teach english
- What part of town I live in
- That I live alone
- That work is slow this time of year
- My house and cell phone number
- That I went on vacation recently
- What kind of music I listen to
This is what I know about him:
- His name is Luis
I'll be surprised if he doesn't show up at my doorstep in a couple of days with replicas of the both of us dressed exactly the same.
He also made this comment that made me really uncomfortable while I was checking to see if all my pictures were recovered. He said (and I quote) "Oh ALL of the pictures are there. I looked through all of then and made sure they were all there." After that was when he said something about me having gone on vacation.
Yep, that's right. I have no further comment on the topic. I'm looking forward to submitting myself to another round of interrogation when I go bitch about my speaker.
Yay.
Let's backtrack now.
I spent Christmas in a cabin in the south with three cousins, a wife and SEVEN children. Precious, precious things that they are. I'll share some pictures for you to love and admire and if I didn't say it before, Happy New Year!
Here is a view from the bathroom window I took during the crossing from the continent to the island of Chiloe:
My cousin's twin two-year olds and I:
And just for shits and giggles, here are some salmon jumping around in a salmon cage at the salmonry (?) (Salmon are gross):

SHIT! The Mac guy knows more about you than I.
I think the mac guy might go all Jennifer Jason Leigh on you. He was probably all excited... thinking "she's a mac peron, I'm a mac person... we'll have sooooo much in common". Now you've disappointed him... I don't think he can handle disappointment. But glad to see you're alive -- for the time being.
