Title: Yeah, I am

Yes I am sitting here, waiting while Expander decompresses all my apps (and I have not even started the 32GB of Games) and remembering how I thought this was better than burning CDs of the apps. Boy was I wrong.

I can see my husband sitting there in his favorite chair watching some horror movies on YouTube on his iPad Mini 2. I am on my 2008 Mac Pro while I patiently wait for Fallout to finish decompressing so I can install it. I am still excited I could get OS 9 installed on a iMac that was one of those "OS X Only" machines. 

I am also thrilled beyond believe my husband is one of those men who are comfortable with us doing two different things, how he encourages my Mac collection as it continues to grow, and that my dog is patiently sleeping in his bed beside my desk. While my phone does not take the greatest of images (it is an old Android one), you can see how peaceful the house is. :-)

Yeah, but man my Mac Mini has been in for three trips to the Apple Store, so I never move it in case a fourth trip happens!

Hmmm, but maybe I should bring out the other G4 towers, add a level to my desk, and add both of the acrylic 17' and 23" by adding a shelf on the desk..  . . . ideas ideas ideas. :-)
