Truth be told, I'm a die hard internet junkie. Yes, I know that you've already guessed it...but me and the internet, well it's a mad love affair. That's why I'll only post on television shows or specials when I can honestly say that I can't wait to turn off my Mac (ok fine - put it in sleep mode).

If this isn't the coolest skin for your laptop, I don't know what is! Damn! I've been a huge fan of gelaskins from when I first saw them a little over a year ago. My MacBook Pro loves her Audrey Kawaski sticker so much, in fact, that she doesn't feel right without… Continue
