Meet my New Friend Genevieve!

Most of my followers know that there is an item (or 10 ... ish) I have been coveting for at least the last year. I bought one for a moment about a year ago, but it was too small and I decided pink just really wasn't the right color for me. I mean pink is pretty and all, but have you seen Green!!!

Everything looks better in green! (minus my hair...my hair would not look very pretty green. I know this because there was one summer where I did a LOT of swimming and well chlorine and yeah...you get the idea. But pink highlights...totally cool!)

Getting back on track...

So on New Years Eve I finally caved in and bough myself a long awaited present. She'll help me with my writing and my blogging and make me ten times more awesome than I already am. (Wait? Can the world even handle that much awesomeness?)

No need to make you wait any longer. I know you are all on the edge of your seats. So dear blogger friends, I'd like you to meet my new BFF.

Say hello to Genevieve!!!


Isn't she the prettiest thing you've ever seen? And the best part is ... she is TINY (just like me!) She clocks in at 10.1 inches wide and she works like a dream! She even fits in the new purse that I want. I'm not quite sure what that purse looks like yet, but I KNOW Genevieve will fit in it!

So what do you think? Feel free to tell her how cute she is. She loves flattery!

Is there something you've wanted for months on end? Even if its not big or totally unaffordable, it's just something you haven't been able to get your hands on yet? What is it? Is it as awesome as Genevieve?

Adorable laptop! I love Genevieve! Great present to self! I love my laptop but it is not nearly as cute or tiny as Genevieve and mine is a boy... funny enough we call it (it's a Gateway) G.W. (like G.W. McClintock from John Wayne's movie McClintock - hilarious if you have never seen it)So I will say that Genevieve is the tiny petite girl and our G.W. is the strong muscular guy she will 'talk' to via blogging lol
We are all crazy!
Oh something I covet.... There is a book that I want (vintage) so badly from a curio shop here but it is very expensive and I just cannot yet bring myself to purchase it...but oh i want it!

It is adorable and there are several little things I've wanted for months - books! There's little I hate more than reading an amazing book and having to hand it back to the library a few days later.

I have a tiny (pink) laptop too. Is Genevieve an ACER? I love mine! The fun patterns on yours are cool - mine's just a solid, pearly color.

I've been wanting a puppy for my daughter, but hubby hasn't caved yet. :)

CUTE! And I love green. So jealous, but I think if I had one more place to keep my work I would probably lose everything. Congrats on getting something you've wanted for a long time. That's always exciting!

Awesome Marybeth! I'd love to get a laptop too, but I have a great desktop so it seems like a frivolous expense. Maybe someday.

Andrea McKay said...

Me likey! She's beautiful and much less poopy than a new baby, so congrats!

Oh, I like her a lot! I am desperate for a DSLR.

AHHHH! I broke down and bought a new laptop too! I figured since I'm blogging so much now, I deserve to do so in style (plus my laptop now is a few years old and keeps shutting down for no apparent reason... I think I'm overloading it with all the writing I've been doing!) I'm just waiting for them to finish building it and send it to me now, but I can't wait!

Green is the best color! I finally got my Cricut Expression that I've been wanting and ALMOST had it in green. However, red is fabulous too. :)
