Mar. 25th, 2008 07:05 pmSo, my brother got a girlfriend... Tuesday or Wednesday or so. This, methinks, is his second or third girlfriend, which puts him squarely beyond me irt: dating experience despite my being older, which I'm sure should be more bothersome to me than it is. (He hasn't realized that yet, thankfully, or all the advice I have been giving him about where to go/what to do would be completely ignored, which is not really something he could afford, LOL). Thing that is bothersome? She just came by for the first time to pick him up for a date (as neither yet drive), so I only just now got to see her. And she's so far past way too hot for him that it's not even funny. Except it actually is really funny.
It's just odd. My brother's oddly charming in that dorky, rumpled teenage kind of way, and he does clean up well, but she's hot .
I'm entertained, And further entertained by the fact that I've written this whole post on a tablet PC that my dad borrowed from somebody to test out as a prelude to possibly buying it. As cool as it is to have handwritten all of this--and if I slow down my writing a bit and do it significantly bigger than I normally would, I don't even have to make that many corrections--I type like nobody's business. A single correction takes several pen clicks, and I'm pretty sure that I type faster than my standard, scribbly chicken scratch note-taking handwriting anyway, much less the bigger, clearer writing I've got to do on here, anyway. Add that to the fact that it's a pretty lacking laptop in all the more technical aspects (1.40 GHz, 1.24GB of RAM, only a 30 GB hard drive), and I'm not really impressed. Fun to play with, but it wouldn't cut it as the kind of laptop I need for next year.
