So, here I am, alone in my scrapbook room. Boston is asleep, Randy is still at work. I have the house all to myself. I love it....the quiet of it all. I love just hangin' out in my little room that I've created in the basement of my house. Makes me happy. I sifted through some of my scrapbook supplies and played on iphoto, much to my pleasure.
My day has not been completely smooth...when I tried to start itunes today, it was funky and the window wouldn't come out of hiding in the bottom right corner. I called my bro and to no avail. no hope with my friends Jen and JJ either. ugh. So I broke down and called apple support, mainly cuz they were still open and I've never called before.
I actually got someone in tech support in less than 5 minutes and guess what, he spoke ENGLISH! That's worth the extra price on a mac's head any day. He did speak "super fast" English and I really had to focus to keep up. I could tell his time was precious and the only reason my wait time was so little is cuz they like to get down and dirty pretty quick.
I explained my dilemma, thinking in the back of my mind that maybe, just maybe, some freakish mac virus has already attacked my new imac, much to my dismay. (This of course happened frequently with all of my pcs, so the loss would have been nothing new here).
I explained what was "wrong" and after a few questions on his part to simply clarify the phenomena, he said, "can you drag the window up with your mouse?" and the strangest thing happened...
when I drug it up with my mouse, it was fixed. The itunes window just needed to be dragged up. hmmm. what do I say now? Do I say I see smoke and hang up?
silence.
silence.
complete embarasment.
me, "I really need to apologize, your time is very valuable and I've just called you so you can tell me I need to drag a window up".
tech guy, "it's ok, it's hard to know what to do sometimes. are you new to mac's?...you should do a tutorial".
hmmm, this sounds vaguely familiar, I think it was something I mocked earlier in the day with dear husband.
I guess he was right after all. again. ugh.
