this morning i woke up and was like oh my god i think its my dads birthday. i text mum and she was like TOMORROW! thank god.
so i text my sisters and they were like shit. so in my head i decided joe could organise us a digital photo frame, chuck some photos on it and send it off for us. while typing the email to him i worked out this wasnt really going to work.
so i spent my morning researching digital photo frames, i found the perfect one at dick smith, that was in stock at both lower hutt stores, so that was all good.
i got joe to get some photos off facebook and a few others we had taken a few years ago, and email them to me at work, while i ran out in my 30 minute lunch break and got the photo frame.
i get to dork smiths, no one looks like they want to help, there were none of the photo frames i wanted on the shelf. i thought fuck this and ran downstairs to the other dick smiths. i get in there and there is a guy at the counter yelling out for someone to help him. i went and looked, there is was one with about a kilometre tape all over it. so i ran back upstairs and asked for help. the only place that had them was downstairs, but none of them were new. what?
so i ran to noel leemings, they had no good ones. went to farmers found the perfect one, same size and resolution as the original one, but with a bonus of a nice wooden frame. was $200 but on sale to $10 more than the original one. so i grabbed it.
get back to work 10 minutes late. then i tried to load photos on it, nothing would work! it had no fucking internal memory. luckily my boss was being lovely and let me run out and buy a memory stick. got the photos loaded, the frame wrapped and on the last courier of the day.
$10 says he doesn't appreciate it
