No matter how good the things we humans make are, things will quit working at one point or another. (This is the order of this fallen world and we cannot but hope for a better world coming with our Lord Jesus Christ. Yes, as a 21st century thinker living in a developed country and hedonistic society I believe that Jesus Christ is God's Son, and He is our Saviour.) So I (Arpi) had to spend quite some time reinstalling some of Bill Gates' favorite softwares, and some of the better ones on my laptop lately. This task being quite tedious and very time-consuming I have decided to make an image of my hard disk drive allowing me to restore this image at any time in minutes, all this for free!
While I was attending to my gadgetry Andi was surprisingly patient. Maybe she learned that if the computer works properly she is happier as well. We get into discussions about my gizmos (male trinkets) occasionally, but I always win the argument by saying that this will make our life so much easier. This statement has been proven wrong so many times as I shouted at the laptop, the divx player, the mp3 recorder, or my state of the art phone, but we both still believe that our next tool in this digital society is going to be flawless and perfect. Fat chance! Sometimes I think that Ned Ludd and the Luddites were right in destroying those textile machines years ago. Yet, I am writing this blog on a laptop, over wireless internet, as I am watching the latest episode of Lost aired in New York only six hours ago.
I really need to go, for Andi is almost done cooking and I am really hungry. (Oh, by the way, in addition to eating healthy and occasional running we started doing pilates this week.)
