Last night the kids and I missed America’s Got Talent because we had to go to the Apple Store.
Seems that the iPod touch went on the blink and 12 year old Clara was left in a churning void of darkness and isolation (translation: not being able to message her friends).
The Apple Store is always bright and clean full of nice young people that make me feel positively ancient. Mind you, I’ve been using Macs since the mid 80’s (1980’s, not 1880’s) because I do things other than blogging and tattling on my kids and husband (I have a real profession). Don’t jump on me…I also have a PC. Two Dells in my house, 2 Macs, 2 Android phones, 1 iPhone, 1 iPod touch.
In my house Adobe isn’t a building material it is a software and a way of life.
Oh sure, my spelling and grammar can leave something to be desired (thank you Aunt Liz for pointing that out, now go stalk someone else you old vampire bat)… but…where were we?
Vampires like their computers and their toys. Honestly, do you think we’re going to wait around for centuries in musty damp old castles waiting for passers by to just happen upon us? I think not.
So, back to the story. We recorded AGT and will watch it tonight along with the new show. I hear there as a pig on it. Looking forward to that one.
Teddy might fix cocktails but he has been spending more time sitting with us on our couch, like a vampire version of the Simpson’s couch (but, I’m glad to say Teddy is no Homer).
Wait…hold on…Teddy said he has a new cocktail
Vampire Head Rush
2 oz Bourbon
12 oz Dark Beer (Teddy Suggests something like Downtown Brown)
2 oz Blood
Pour all in a tall glass over ice.
Clara calls it a head rush because she says it looks like something out of a toilet. Middle School humor.
Oh well. Have fun.

Addition or maybe a correction…we DID see it tonight. I wasn’t too impressed by anyone EXCEPT the young man who did stand up comedy. He was really really really good (maybe he is a vampire – we do ok at comedy. Really. I mean it. Come to one of our events.)
