YMBAGI you spoke to your girlfriend’s father for the very first time, including introducing yourself, so that you could help arrange for him to buy her a new PowerBook. (See above post from Jinkies
)YMBAGI the biggest thing you were worried about was screwing up said computer purchase.
YMBAGI if you have spoken with your girlfriend for more than 19 hours in one 48 hour period, using the computer (Go NetFone!).
YMBAGI you were also speaking with her on AIM and in the TMO forums at the same time.
YMBAGI you have done the laundry with your girlfriend, again using the computer.

YMBAGI if you continously jack up your computer in vain efforts to “fix” it, “make it better” or just to see “what this will do when I click on it”, then call Bryan up whining that “something is wrong with my computer and I don’t have a clue how it happened”
