My first blog is going to be about my love for my good friend Carmel’s husband, Chris. Now before you starting thinking, “What is wrong with you Shannon that is someone’s husband!” never fear I don’t mean it that way. I mean I love that Chris is so computer savvy that he has taken my new computer and made it better, well first he helped me (meaning I bought him some dim sum and he did all the work, you can see pictures here on my friend Travis’s blog http://weekendfrenzy.blogspot.com/, and a picture of some file transferring) transfer all my info from my old computer to my new one, then he made it better!
I was so excited to finally buy a new computer, one that Chris helped me pick out. After about 5 or 6 years, my old one was quite the dinosaur in computer age. After having to wait for it to arrive in the mail, I quickly installed my favorite computer game, The Sims 2, on it and got ready to lose an entire weekend (who am I kidding about a month) to building my Sim community up and getting it running. I was ecstatic when it took less than a minute for the game to load, on my old computer you clicked start then you could go and take a shower, make a sandwich, maybe do some dishes and it still wouldn't be done loading! I go to create my Sim-self and the game freezes!!!! I think to myself that can’t be right and try it again only to learn that yep that is right The Sims and Vista don’t like each other! Of course I went right to Chris and begged him to help me! He took my computer home and removed Vista and installed XP (yes that is right I’m one more person who said Vista your crappy and downgraded to XP), which of course meant he had to transfer all my pics and music back on to my new computer (I don’t really know the whole process, that is why I went to him) but needless to say he did it wonderfully.
So now I have my computer back and have lost my free time (not to mention my sleeping time) to The Sims; I have graduated college after joining a secret society of course, gotten married to my college sweetie, I just opened my first restaurant, started my garden so I can make better food for said restaurant, my dogs have had 4 puppies (well on my way to meeting my lifetime aspiration of raising 20 puppies) and woohooed enough to become pregnant with my first of six babies (Daryl my husband’s lifetime aspiration is to marry off 6 children), God bless America I love The Sims!!
So this first blog is dedicated to you’re Awesomeness Chris!!! Thank you for being you and helping me become The Sim obsessed person I was meant to be!
