This is a test, this is only a test...

I recently decided to purchase an iPad. Mostly because It would be a great addition to my classroom for my dear wee students. I also thought that this pad would make a great addition to my vast computer collection. This consists of an toshiba that it seriously on its last leg and a MacBook. Neither of which I can count as reliable. The toshiba, poor thing she is, is honestly so old she has hot flashes and shuts off on me. The MacBook is not actually mine. It's a tattered loaner from work that I'm
Terribly afraid to upload anything personal on for fear I might forget to clean it off later. So this leaves me with my new $400 love child.

The iPad I adore! The accessories that laugh each time I pull out my credit card are not as loved.

And then the worse battle, picking a cover. Why most of these covers cost more then my cell phone is beyond me. The more simple they seem the higher the price tag. Then the worst part, how do I have pretty and functional?! I've purchased this $100 dollar gem which comes standard with keyboard and camera plug in. But then I stumbled across a lusty little number with tweed threading and a silly little sign reading "life's a beach." This blog is my test. And yet, while I'm typing on my nice handy keyboard.....I'm thinking about tweed and beaches. Oh how cute we will look together while walking pad and hand together through a downtown store.

Where did I put my keyboard receipt?
