Oh, P.S., I got the music essentials kit for my LG Chocolate today.  This includes the USB cord, the syncing software, and an okay pair of headphones with microphone.  I tested out the headphones today by calling my mama at work.  She heard me fine.  I’m glad.  I can’t afford a bluetooth headset right now, so this will have to do me as far as hands free goes.  I haven’t gotten to try out the syncing software yet because the lovely IT gurus here at work won’t grant anyone admin rights and I can’t install without it.  I downloaded one song from Vcast already, though, and I love the sound quality on my phone, so I’m looking forward to using it for more music.  Hopefully tomorrow my MicroSD card will come in

Okay, seriously, why can I not visit any site on the internet without running into some scantily clad, big busted, wide eyed, sailor moon chicks?  I mean, I get why people like anime, and I even get why people like naked anime, but why are there so many friggin’ adverts for it on every single site I’m trying to look at while I’m at work? It’s a tincy bit annoying.

That is all.

Old Phone Out
New Phone In

Yesterday I got my “new every two” phone from Verizon. FedEx shipped it to me over night & I’ve been fiddling with it non-stop since around 11:00 yesterday. I got the “Dark Cherry” VX3550 model, which is the newest chocolate by LG. So far I’m really enjoying it. The call quality is clear and I love the user interface. The screen is large, although not as large as my razr, and very bright. The camera is much better than the razr’s, but doesn’t have a flash so I still can’t take random pictures in the bar or other low light situations. I’m especially loving that the Chocolate has a slot for a MicroSD memory card, which I think goes up to 4GB. I won’t have to carry my mp3 player around anymore!

The keys are a little close together, compared to the razr, which was kind of wide, but they’re suitable for texting and dialing.  I love the vibration feedback that the touch keys give you, but I have noticed that I hit them on accident some.  However, the lock feature is great & prevents a lot of mistaken touches.  Overall, I’m really pleased!

I love new gadgets

It’s like Watergate in my office today. I’ve shredded so many old files (some circa 1960s! Most from 1980s.) that my poor little shredder gave out on me.

I do not like Felix da Housecat and I never will.
Techno is stupid… even when you’re on drugs.

That is all.

Have you ever felt like you couldn’t escape someone?  Have you ever felt like you couldn’t escape a Co-Worker? Well, I’m not in that situation, per se, but a vendor keeps calling me.  Literally, I get a call every day, sometimes twice a day!  I got a voice mail about an hour ago and since I hadn’t answered they called me back!  Honestly, there is something to be said about having a good line of communication with your customers, but this is a little much.  I’ve never enjoyed call-ID so much!

This morning on the way in to work, Patrick and I were behind this trailer:

I can only imagine what kind of instruments “Thicklove Entertainment” was carrying around in their trailer.

I’m super psyched because Patrick and I have two amazing vacations planned. We rarely get out of town & when we do, it’s normally to Atlanta for a show or my mom’s for a weekend. Even more sporadically for us is the “real” vacation where we leave the continental U.S. and spend a week or more in a hotel. Well, friends, we’ve got two fun trips coming up in December and January.

The day after Christmas we’re flying out to Denver to spend some time with Patrick’s sister & do some sight seeing & skiing (yikes!). I’m looking forward to this because I’ve never been to Colorado, I love the mountains & snow, and I want to try skiing.In January, for MLK weekend, Patrick, Lindsey, Todd, & I are going up to Helen, GA to stay in this amazing cabin:

This will be one of the least boring winters I’ve had in quite a while. I welcome the change & look forward to snow
