I still Love you NSF
February 14, 2010 by Gary WalshThere is that L word again.
Yep, its Valentine's day. Just like last year at this time my mind drifts to thoughts of NSF.
Its been a so so year for the old girl. Hah...funny to call her old considering that she just turned 20. Things were pretty exciting after her birthday party last year. XPAGES, DAOS and hooking her up with a new designer. But it soon became apparent that although she had some pretty significant work done to her backend, not everyone liked the work she had done on her front end. This is not about her being essentially flat. Most have gotten used to that over the years. The front part just seemed to slow down. Maybe the first stages of Alzheimers or something. She could spell better, and had some other cool things to offer, but it just seemed to take longer fo do some of the simple things. And the new designer, try and get him to do something quickly...sigh! Blue and yellow...still not sure about that.
This last year saw some trouble on the home front too. I am not talking about her friends leaving her, some of her relatives were making noises as well. Uncle Bill had a bit too much one day and posted some things about her parents online. Papa got pretty upset. By the time her party rolled around this year they seemed to have patched it up, but there was no singing and dancing together like we were used to seeing in the past.
As for me, I am still a big fan. Went out on a few dates with SP this year and it did not take to long to see there was a lot of baggage there. NSF could be ready in 10 mintutes, but SP seemed to take forever to get her game on. NSF knew about it, and did not really seem to care. She knows most of us prefer a cheap date.
XOXO
