well then. so i got a new printer. in yes i'm aware it's 2016.

uh. right so i got a new printer. The one I’d had [which i still have btw it’s been put atop a dresser i hve and is now a shelf.thing] well...........it had issues. i think i’ve written about this.
So earlier this wk. I um.I’d emailed my mom the printer issues. [cause well being that i didn’t have a printer i couldn’t, you know.print them out]. and on Thurs. at lunch we were talking about it and she said ‘i’ll let Mike handle that’. ‘mike’ being my dad. [yeah except for today when my dad was talking about my mom to me.when they’re referring to the other like in my company it’s always by their first name]. um..........so............ and I’m like ‘ok’. Well so my dad & I talk about that.yesterday and we say we’re going to go to my house at 3. [well it’s not technically my house it’s the house]. but anyway. well I was honestly hoping they wouldn’t have the printer which well they didn’t since apparently I think the only way to get Dell printers nowadays is to.buy them online. the one i’d had i’d had since college so. which ya know in a way i don’t like the online thing cause.sometimes certain things are easier to use than others and if you don’t go and interact w/ it in the store you won’t know untill you get it. and then if it’s hard for someone to use they have to send it back. i have trouble w/ physical things myself sometimes.
ok so.
but I was hoping along w/ that i’d. They’d [the people at best buy] tell us to go to another store and I’d say something about how I’d get it Mon. or no that I’d tell them I’d pick it up Mon. apparently for groceries if the person forgets them the store will hold them [the groceries i mean] for a certain amount of time.
and here’s why I wanted to wait.bc. I was going to get the printer w/ valerie and bring it up to my room. bc. I’m really comfortable w/ her. which i mean is good that’s one way of looking at it. and also well i would certainly hope so. and she’s been in my room before. so like if I got the printer w/ her [er i mean if my dad i bought it but then valerie i went and picked it up] I wouldn’t have to like put the pictue of Pat away.er well elsewhere. Far as I know my parents don’t know about Pat and if they saw the picture. like if they were in my room and saw the picture I wouldn’t want them asking.stuff about it. orlike evan’s guitar tuner which btw broke. [yeah when it did i told him and he’s like yeah i’ve had like 3 and they all broke oh ok]. if valerie saw it I wouldn’t have to put that away. or Pat’s hat.
or..............the postcards though actually even if I was in my room [at.the house] w/ my mom I wouldn’t put the postcards.away. [also she’s the one who sent them to me so the least i could do is display them. like ‘awww look. i like these and here they are displayed so nicely’ ]. but w/ my dad he’s the type who if he’s curious about something he’ll look at it.which is fine i do the same thing. But........w/ himand I. I don’t want him looking at my stuff cause i don’t want him to know who i am..........er maybe. like if he and I and my sister are out to lunch and we talk about idinno Maine and I mention I like lighthouses [which btw i actually do] then that’s fine.cause there’s someone else there. so yeah that’s why I would’ve like on Wed. or whenever wanted to know ‘ok so you and your dad are going to get th printer then go right to your house’.er why I would’ve wanted to know that before Thurs. so that I would have time to prepare. cause i really do’t like being unprepared in that manner. or in general.
um. so earlier today [god that was today? and it’s already 10;30 p.m.] or no it was like well it was sometime recently. i wrote my dad a note telling him I would like him to wait in the living room of my house er the house and when I’m ready we’ll go upstairs. [i felt like telling him to wait in the car would’ve been weird. esp. as again it’s not my house]. and that was fine. [and so the problem is.......?] i don’t like being unprepared. and of course me w/ my high expectations of most people ladies in particular.............i expected my mom to know that even though i didn’t tell her.
but no.
uh god so there was that.

oh yeah so. on Thurs. my mom & I go to panera. for lunch as I’ve mentioned in my weekly updates. [nummy panera. they have good sandwiches about as the ones we got from the amsterdam grocery store. oh i have a short maybe funny story about that. anyway. yeah panera. good stuff]. well so. We’re sitting there and she tells me.something about how the computer people called and they need to put new hinges on my computer and it’ll be back Sat. but more on that later. well anyway long story short...........uh.............. ......... so. I wanted to know that like. on um Wed. or whenever. so that I could make a folder on my desktop and put everything in that folder if.like my dad was at the computer place and they needed to log into my computer. and so I was thinking my mom & I’d drop the computer off at the place right after panera. er i mean after we were at panera. and I wouldn’t have the time to prepare it the desktop...........folder............thing. [btw it all got worked out and nothing happened].

so um yeah. i’m starting to notice a pattern here. unpreparedness and scheduling and..........stuff.

[btw as an aside. now it’s 10;50 p.m.]
