boy toy: August 2004 Archives
After having a long discussion with the DSL people my dad told me that my internet was only working at 25% of the speed it was supposed to, thus I spent my morning waiting for the SBC repair man to come out. Everything was fine and dandy until he wanted to use my laptop to check out the internet. He then proceded to take my computer, run the ad-aware and norton anti-virus programs, update things, and reprimand me for my use of AOL. I felt a pang of guilt as these are usually the duties of the computer geek boytoy... and here is this complete stranger doing his job, filling one of his roles in my life. Oh, computer man, why must you put me in this awkward situation? I wonder if the boytoy will feel as if someone has tromped on his territory.
Fortunately for the BT, the only role this dude could fill was that of computer fixer-upper, as 1. we speak different languages (his involving gigs and megs and all sorts of numbers that mean nothing to me) and 2. He's married.
My mom just sent me this pic of the boytoy and I before getting in the water to start Ironman USA! Pretty cute pic of us even tho my head looks freakishly large...
Edited: Ok so I haven't quite gotten the hang of posting pics yet. You're just going to have to deal ;) Click on the actual post for the full shot :)
