Chalk one up for the home team....

I have a ton of pictures to post in here....first day of school....our weekend at the beach...lots of great pics...and lots to blog about....so why haven't I done it yet?
ok....well....you'll all get a chuckle I am sure...Mark sure is having fun telling all his buddies about it!
When Mark was out to sea, my virus protection thingy...yah..you read that right...THINGY...which will let you know just how all this happened...I am NOT a computer person...Why should I be? Mark is the one with the degree! AND...my computer genius brother is just a phone call away...so when I have computer issues, I have PEOPLE....anywho...my virus scanner blocker thingy popped up saying 'your protection has expired' (which would be a GREAT feature on birth control right?) and so I clicked on it and it said 'download a new virus protection program'. Now as you all know, Mark is ANAL about computer protection. It is like living at bloody Fort Knox half the time with all the passwords and scans etc that go on on our computers......so when it said my virus protection was expired I thought 'oh crap' and thought I needed to do something...so I bought this new program...
It all went downhill from there....
Turns out I not only downloaded a HUGE virus but I PAID FOR IT!!! I DID get my money refunded from the company after threatening them with the Prosecuting Attys office along with various other agencies....but that didn't take the virus off my laptop....
But like I said, I have PEOPLE! :)
So Mark has spent the past three days (when I do something I do it well! lol) fixing my laptop. He's almost done...I have a feeling the bill won't be pleasant....maybe I can work it off! :)
So once my puter is fixed, I'll download pictures and blog about them....
You are probably asking why I don't download them onto the computer I am using in the living room....well..I am a creature of habit..and I KNOW how to download pics on my laptop..I DON'T know how to do it onto this puter...and I don't have ANY desire to learn...I have PEOPLE to do that stuff for me! :)
So...say a prayer for my poor sick laptop.....
Sigh...

Hugs to all,
Jaye
