This is about my ca-razy experiences in Rennes, France as an English teacher and American!

Bye-Bye, Serge
I am both sad and happy to announce that Serge, my loving pc for the past 4 years will soon be replaced by this lovely lady pictured above. Serge and I have been through a lot together-we've done countless plane/train/bus/car trips together and we've lived in 3 entirely different countries. However, Serge has been ageing not-so gracefully in the last while-he's slowed down a lot and gets annoyed with me when I ask him to do more than one thing at a time. He especially does not like it when I wish to watch something other than his beautiful face. Unfortunately, Serge has had it a bit rough over the years and has come down with several viruses that have made him go a little loco. I can only hope Solange's(yes, I have prenamed her and, yes, it's a she, have you noticed the pink and the flowers?) life will not be so hard. Though I am opting to welcome Solange into my life, that does not mean that Serge won't be a perfectly good compagnon to someone else. I have about 6 weeks left with my cheri and I plan to make the most of it. Here's to you, Serge!

That new computer is so preeeeety!
Is that pink? But it looks... PURPLE!
Ah, my old ibook is getting curmudgeonly, too. I'd love to replace it. Was Serge a Dell, too?
E-I agreeeeee!! Thanks!
JS-It does actually look purple now that I look at it next to my very pink blog background. Tant mieux! Serge was a Dell as well and despite being outsourced to India for cust. "service", my fam and I have had good luck with Dells in the past. I actually got a pretty good deal(there was a memorial day sale and I saved about 200 bucks), so it wasn't too expensive once I paid with my euros. :) If you're thinking about Dell, I know they're having a 3 day sale right now, but they always have sales from time to time anyways, so it might be worth looking into.
I have been scouting prices for a while now and the sale was what did it because I got to add memory, update the hard drive, opertating system, add Word, have a fun color and a few other things I had been looking to do and they were all included in the price. Just dumb luck, I guess! Happy pc hunting!
Isn't it funny that we get so attached to our computers that they become our friends? I'm totally like that about my baby.
Oh you already answered if it was a US or French pc! I'll definitely have to check out the sales, poor George here won't last much past the summer I'm afraid. And paying in euros is the best thing ever!
