i am tired.

tired of running
tired of the struggle
tired of arguing
tired of explaining
tired of the machinations of the rich
tired of the mumbo jumbo
tired of the greedy
tired of the bored
tired of the dumb
tired of the petty
tired of waiting for another day
tired of being polite
tired of corporate crime
tired of generals
tired of taxes
tired of banks
tired of coping
tired of the silence
tired of the battles
tired of the smug
tired of the manipulators
tired of being tired
tired of life

stop the world. i want to get off.

I have never been so excited to sign a cheque than I was today. I paid off the final installment for my MacBook Pro and properly own it now. I got my first Mac in 1990 and to date, have never had the money to buy a computer outright. It’s always been a struggle involving loans and credit cards and endless pay-back plans. This time, owing to a quirk of fate, I was able to pay off the MacBook Pro loan in 4 months – the quickest turnaround time for ownership in 17 years. Thank you to everyone who has enabled me to have a Mac on my desk ever since I fell in love. You know who you are.

The Macs I’ve Owned Over the Years:

- Mac Plus
- Mac SE (Best Mac EVER)
- Mac IIvx (Worst Mac EVER)
- PowerBook G3
- iBook 12″
- PowerBook 12″
- PowerBook 15″
- MacBook Pro 15″ (Sexiest Mac EVER)

No matter what Steve says, I’ll always bleed in 6 colors
