Captain Flat and No we're the Mac store!

As you may know this blog is daily but I am only trying to find two major things that happened during the day so that the blog is not so long and hard to read. My first encounter of the day came when I stopped by the Performance bike shop to buy some new tubes for my bike. I walked into the store and this girl who worked there smiled at me and that was cool. She had some crazy hair but that was cool. I looked around a little bit so I could see if I needed anything else and I bought a new pair of cut off gloves as well. I got to the register and guess what it was the girl who earlier smiled at me. I purchased 5 tubes and started a conversation with her about my friends calling me Captain Flat because of all the flats I get. I mean I have already gotten 2 on my new bike in the first week of riding. She said really that's interesting. That seems like a lot of tubes and I said yeah I guess I just ride hard. I was wondering what she was thinking.

Next I went across the street to the Mac store. I needed to get a minidvi to video adapter for my computer for the next China presentation. I walk into the store and look around trying to find what I'm looking for but am not seeing it so I sk one of the guys working behind the counter. He is a younger guy with a ring in his eyebrow and I ask him where it's at. He shows me where it's at and then he asks me what it's for and I told him but he said oh your resolution will not be that great and I told him that was OK. I figured he was probably trying to sell me something more expensive. He goes back behind the counter and rings up a young lady in front of me who had tatooes on the back of her neck and behind her ear which was different I had never seen one there before. I got up to the register and he asked me if I had ever bought anything at the store and I said no but I had been to a different one, the one in University Villiage and he goes "That's the Apple Store, we are the Mac Store they are totally different." I was like "oh sorry I was not sure about that." He was offended, it was interesting. I asked him how they were different and he said "the only real difference is that our classes are better.
Oh sorry I didn't see that on the sign outside. Anyway that was the day hope you enjoyed!

On another note I have been a little discouraged with Dex because she has been quite busy this week and has not been able to hang out. Oh well I can only do so much. I just try to invite her to everything that we do and hope that she wants to come and that she is free to come.

The video announcement idea is great and I have a great first episode now I have to pull the people together.
