Barbie laptops deploy American cute off the coast of Korea
The smart folks at Samsung know that, despite whiz-bang new technology, classics always win, so they recently unveiled the X170 Barbie Special Edition laptop. Available in pink or black, the girly laptop is specifically targeted at the female teenage Korean market.
Measuring just 25.4 millimeters thick and featuring an Intel Core 2 Duo processor, Windows 7 Home Premium, 4 gigabytes of RAM and a massive 500 gigabyte harddrive, the U.S.-icon-laden device is ready to cutify all of Asia. The Samsung's ode to American teenage glam will soon go on sale for 1,400,000 Korean won ($1,238) here.
One good thing about a major reorg - nearly all of my objectives from last year are n/a. (Self-appraisal time, yay.)
Quick, what do we think of this dress for me? Too busy?

Stay safe Fay.
Barb, I love the cut and it's fun!
Fay, please check in regularly, and let us know if we need to send in a crack team of sound designers and audio technicians to rescue you.
Love the dress!
Fay, thanks for checking in and stay safe.
My husband's interview is in five minutes. I think I'm more nervous about it than he is.
I hope it all goes well, Dana.
I'm still grumpy this morning. I can't refill my pain meds until tomorrow, which means I wake up with a migraine in the wee hours and toss and turn until my alarm goes off. So all the extra exhaustion just sucks the life out of my day. At least I go home kind of early today.
Guy who introduced himself to me has started talking to me over the cube walls. All very nice, but he can't see me so he was interrupting me during a con call to tell me good morning repeatedly. Hmmph.
I would totally like for somebody to be my "Dad" in an absolutely non-incestuous context like:
-fix stuff I break
-give me good-natured financial/romantic advice that I ignore, but listen to because your heart's in the right place.
-teach me sports or some other hobby he hearts.
Just treat me like Keith treats Rachel, and that'd be about right.(Except I could make KO feel about a million, but he should be used to that...a twenty-four year old *weathergirl* Really? Sir, I'm too old to play with twenty-four year olds anymore, and I've got an experience gap. But I couldn't date somebody who thinks Matthew Broderick is that sad-sack teacher in Election...I just couldn't.)
