And on a lighter note…
I felt I was being too serious lately, because I’m really not a very serious person. So I have been thinking about getting a new laptop. Of course at the mere mention of this, G was on it like flies on shit. He lives for this kind of “project”. So he found a laptop in my range with the features I wanted – plus its PINK!!!! My questions about this are as follows:
- Would I get laughed out of my own dissertation defense if I came in with this bitchin’ flamingo pink laptop?
- Will this undermine all of my feminist ideals?
- Can I possibly be taken seriously at post-doc job interviews if I whip this out for presentations?
- Would it look even more awesome with some kick-ass pro-feminism decal stickers on it?
I may decide to throw caution to the wind because I just like this thing SO MUCH.
And another completely un-serious thing. If you’re a TV watcher, you must watch “How I Met Your Mother”, it is possibly the funniest sit-com since Seinfeld. Seriously.

Oh, B
It’s so cute! …but if I were you, I don’t know if I could do it, due to your first three leading questions. If you’re that daring, more power to you, girly-pink girl!

Yea, I have reconsidered. I have moments of unfettered girliness to be sure. I think I’d go with the nice green color if I do get one, which I still want to!
