Look at what came home with me today ...

Ok, the guy on the left .. well I came home with him almost 6yrs ago now.. he he.

Tuesday morning, on my way to work, I always listen to Telephone Time in the morning commute - its a call in show, where you can advertise your goods for sale.

Well the announcer read an ad for a Dell Laptop, and a list of accessories. Then I heard the price.... I had to do the memory thing where I had to repeat it till I found a pen and luckily I had a piece of paper to write on, sitting on the passenger seat.

I got to work, punched in and then I made a phone call to the party that was selling the laptop. Left a message, but I wanted to have the seller call my home # and leave a message, as to when he would be home so we could talk. Well Brian called about 4:15p, the guy called at 4pm and left a message, to say he still had the laptop for sale, and that he was going to be gone from home and will be home around 8:30. Well I drove crazy home on the slushy roads.

I called at 9pm - he precedes to tell me that he had a guy coming (suppose to be there at 10pm) to look at the computer. And here is the kicker - the seller is telling me all the specs of the laptop on the phone, rambling off all the bells and whistles, and I just let him babble on.

I was pretty bummed after the phone call. Pretty much gave up hope. Then last night, the phone rang about 9:20p, Im thinking its my sister. Nope, it was the guy calling back to let me know that the other guy never showed up! And if I was still interested, it was mine. I asked Brian, should we still get it?!

Well guess what his reply was..... umm look at the picture!

So we are now owners of a Dell! We have named it Brian's Toy - humm I wonder if we mate it with Kim's Toy, if we will get lots of Toys?!?! LMAO!
