MacBook Air for home

So my dad got me the best birthday present ever -- a MacBook Air! I did buy all the accessories and software so I had to invest about $750 in it. $1500 if I want it to have all the software my PC has. Since my PC has not crashed I'm in no rush to have Adobe Standard, the EZ Pay Stub Generator, W2 Mate, etc.

I will bring this iBook with me to off-site interviews. I hope I can install TaxAct as well. If not I will buy a Sony VAIO in November on Black Friday.

Anyways, now Carl thinks I should stay put and not move until December. I really do enjoy his support and we are coping with the fact that I'm living in Bayside. He's come over 3 times so far and we're trying to meet every 2 weeks which I think is doable. I really need to move closer to Manhattan for my work -- all my clients are based out of Manhattan and I only know how to get more clients in Manhattan, my Craigs List demographic.

I am going to try to post once a week at least since I don't have a therapist anymore and I want to make sure I am not acting manic or anything.

I really want to see my old therapist -- either Dr Judith B*el*d or Dr Curtis C*amp but I've gotten very frugal with my money ever since Carl has been telling me to save my money. And I know myself so I will probably visit the NAMI support group and seek their advice. It's free and they all have mental illnesses to a varying degree. I will visit both groups -- the general mental illness that meets on Wednesday nights and the bi-weekly support group on Thursdays. 

We are meeting next week to see the Gaughin exhibit at MOMA. I think I can get in with my MS ID. I was able to get in a few years ago so I hope that works. Very excited for that date! Carl is really into art as he was a design major or something like that. And I appreciate art as well. I will update after my date to fill you in all the juicy details :)
