Computer at the Docs and Mexican food

Welp, we dropped off the computer to get fixed in the city! We called “our driver”, Claudio. He’s actually a self-employed driver we met a long time ago that always gives us a good price for longer trips. We call him whenever we need to get to places like the airport or IKEA.

We took the computer to Tekserve on 23rd. It’s the numero uno place to take your mac in NY if it ever gets sick, but the way. Unless you have a warrantee with an Apple store, of course. I do not.

Tekserve is still awesome, even as I announce that it’s going to cost $400 to get the computer fixed. They tried a ton of things while we were there, but it seems to be the analog board. That’s gonna cost almost $300 with about a $100 labor fee. CRAP. It should be ready in about a week. They seem to think everything on it will still be there. That’s at least good news.

Afterwards, we wandered the streets and finally ended up eating at the Caliente Cab Co in the East Village. I’ve wanted to go in there for quite some time! It turns out they have extremely tasty margaritas! The food wasn’t bad, either.

It was still rainy as we walked the streets. I really love New York. It’s so raw and alive. Dave and I are very happy living here.
