First Full Day

I’ve spent all day with this new phone, and I’m still mildly cussing and swearing under my breath.

Maybe it’s time for an audiobook.  Hrm, Dark Tower Vol. III seems a good choice.

Ah, better.

Why am I swearing?  Even if it is the Jesus phone, it’s a new, blank, pristine, unused and untracked Jesus phone.  After using my stupid Razor for, what, four years now, I have 96 contacts and 135 phone numbers to move over.

Happy iPhone Day!!!!!

I finally did it – I picked up an iPhone today.  After years of talking about it, dreaming about it, praying for it, begging my boss for it, hoping for it…

I got sick of waiting and just did it.  Thank gawd for tax returns.

It seems paradoxical to get one now, at a time when Verizon and AT&T have a full-blown ad war waging across the television screens and radio channels, accusing each other of having the worst networks since wireless communication was invented, but I have good reasons: Read more

Pictures!

Well, a picture is worth a thousand words, so this must be about 20,000 worth:

(moved pictures to Upgrade to Snow Leopard)

:cool:

Skåll!!!

Snow Leopard… So Far, So Good

Wow.  Long time, no post.  Well, that’s been an overall pattern of most of my friends, and I am just such a follower of crowds.  I mean, the trenchcoat and dress shirt with tie and waistcoat and all.  ;)

What gives?  Life is just such a grind, and instead of overcoming difficulties I’ve become a whiney bitch.  I work to please other people and haven’t honestly looked to myself for a while now.  I thought moving into my new apartment would’ve kicked off a more realistic view of how I’m taking care of myself, but no – not really.  It just gave me a place to do it in.

So, I took two weeks for vacation, and I’m just taking care of things that have piled up around the apartment and resetting my mindset.  Since I’m resetting the N8-OS, why not do an OS upgrade on my laptop?

Today I woke up and shouted to the world, “Snow Leopard – here I come!”

Then I groaned, ’cause hangovers suck. Read more

Dang… Where Does Time Go?

It’s already May 2nd?

Holy Crap.  I’ve lost my soul to playing on this laptop, setting things up and checking settings, making myself comfortable.

iTunes library is set up and working on my 2TB external drive. Photoshop and Painter are installed, optimized and work correctly with the Wacom tablet.  Coda & Transport are installed for working on this site and it’s (now languishing) brother & sister sites.  I’ve even gotten every browser on earth installed for testing, both Mac OS browsers & Vista…

Wow.  Maybe I should’ve been pausing occasionally to blog my progress.

Oh, wait.  That implies I’m working on logic.  Silly me…
