Finally got the ipod touch. Ended up getting the 16gb for less than I would've paid for a new 8gb.

It. Is. Awesome.

My lovely second shooter (you know who you are), got me the Incase Slider case and Power Support Anti-glare film to keep it safe. It came jailbroken so I filled it out with some programs, and I just spent two hours last night putting album art into it. Now my coverflow is looking sweet. Here are a few pictures of my touch in its case. You may stare.

What lies beneath

Look closely (click on it for a close-up). I saw this on the Street Anatomy blog. If I ever came across someone that did this to their wife, I'd do a lot worse to them. It's a powerful ad. This is what I'll be doing in a few years hopefully (marketing, not vigilante justice).

Better (really) late than never

So my Best Buy giftcard finally came from American Express. Two months late, but I'm happy anyway. I'll be on my way to pick up a brand spankin' new Ipod Touch on Friday. I've been hoarding all my BB gift cards for this moment. Or as Lufthansa would say, "all for this one moment". Photos of the unboxing to come soon. I'm making a case for it out of an old game boy color. We'll see how that goes. I'm also sewing a case for it (yes I can sew). I'm pretty handy with my hands. Not quite so eloquent with them though. I'm in the mood for a family guy quote, so here you go:

Tom Tucker: A bit of breaking news. A local family is forced out of their home by ghosts. Who are they gonna call?
Diane Simmons (sighs): Ghostbusters, Tom.
Tom Tucker: No, Diane. Their insurance company. That's just stupid what you said.

Lois: Honey, what do you say we uh...christen these new sheets, huh?
Peter: Why Lois Griffin, you naughty girl.
Lois: Hehehe...that's me.
Peter: You dirty hustler.
Lois: Hehehehe...
Peter: You filthy, stinky prostitute.
Lois: Aha, ok I get it...
Peter: You foul, venereal disease carrying, street walking whore.
Lois: Alright, that's enough!

Lady(bug) in red

I found a lady bug fluttering around weakly in my room two nights ago. I have no idea how long it's been in there, but it looked like it was on its last leg. I couldn't bring myself to kill it, even though it was freaking me out flying around my desk and dropping down randomly. It was too cold to set it free, and I figured it would die soon if I let it outside anyway. So I captured it and put it into a water bottle that I made a bunch of slits in and had some water droplets on the side. I didn't know what ladybugs ate, so I went downstairs and picked leaves from the plants we have growing in the house. Someone has since informed me that ladybugs don't eat leaves. Well, I tried. It seemed stronger last night, but when I tried to set it free it wouldn't leave the bottle. We'll try again tonight. Pictures to come.

Some Family Guy quotes for you, my loyal reader (or maybe nobody, who knows):

Peter (after Lois tells him he's childish): "If I'm a child that means you're a pedophile, and I'll be damned if i'm going stand here and take this from a pervert."

Lois: Peter,why are we stopped?
Peter: Yeah, I'll have three cheeseburgers...
Lois: Peter for God's sakes she's havin' a baby!
Peter: Oh that's right...and a kid's meal... and uh,I, I guess I'll have fries...if I have fries is anyone else gonna have any? Cuz,uh I don't wanna be the only one eatin' them... I'll feel like a fatty.

Happy Monday!

I have a paper due Tuesday, a quiz on Wednesday, and probably some tests coming up soon that I won't remember until the day before.  The only thing happy about this Monday is that it isn't Tuesday yet.  Couldn't find any "Monday" Garfield comics, but this one is just as good.  I often have thoughts like this.  I will gladly accept your dollars.   

 

My bad

I know it's been a while since I've updated. To all my loyal readers (all two of you), I apologize. Lots have happened in these three months. Firstly, I turned 21. Yes, it's great. Now I can legally kill my brain cells. Secondly, guess where I'm blogging from right now. No...no...close...fine, I'll just tell you. My new black Macbook. It might just be the most awesome piece of tech I've ever owned. That's a lot coming from me. Photos of my set-up to come. I hear the new macbooks might be coming out soon, but until then, I think I'm in love. I'll be blogging much more often now. Lucky you.

Now here's a Dilbert for you, courtesy of my Dilbert widget. I think many of us can relate. I know I can.



I think I'll add that to my resume, "Incubator of innovations".

Spare me.

My new bowling ball. Isn't she pretty? Also picked up a bag and a pair of shoes. Don't ask about the shoes. They ain't pretty. Now I've got this urge to bowl during all my free time. More productive than napping in any case, and less expensive than my other hobby- spending money on photography equipment.

Now I need someone to bowl with. Anyone got some time to spare? Get it? Spare? 'Cause it's bowling? Man...I crack myself up.
