In the moments when you feel lifted...


Let me start out by saying that I am ashamed at how easily material things can influence my mood.

My new iphone got here today! I'm so happy:) I need to get busy switching my contacts over to it:)  Quite possibly my favorite part of the iphone is the shimmy cloth.  This is true because if anyone has ever seen the homestar runner podcasts at the end Strongbad does a faceprint on yuor ipod screen and says: "uh oh looks like you're gonna need one of those...shimmy cloths." Its pretty funny if the podcast isnt funny enough that will certainly get you rollin. 

On another note, my iphone was supposed to be a 2g but it shipped with a 3g instruction booklet, im not sure if thats just default iphone packaging these days but i certainly got a deal if not.

Obsessions: my new iphone

Reaching into the unknown (Good, Bad, Ugly)

It snowed all day yesterday:) It didnt stick though:(

Good News (Not the Jesus kind):
I've been thinking my myspace profile was a little bland for a while now, so I've decided to get back on the educational wagon and teach myself how to make an entire flash website. I'm hoping that this will eventually bring me skill enough to mastermind my own design portfolio. 

Bad News:
Its getting really hard for me to concentrate at my job. I hate not being in the field i want to end up in.  Design is really all i want to do, and scanning records and printing faxes have both just lost their luster.  Maybe somebody should put some colored paper in the printer so it'll make me chuckle for 5 seconds.

The Ugly .....Stuff:
The consecuences of me putting colored paper in one of the printers would probably consist of me chuckling loudly then getting yelled at by my manager.... woah is me. The entertqainment value seems to greatly out weigh the consecuences. I'm so gonna have some fun today.

On another note, messing with people in your office is very dangerous business kids, so dont try this unless you have very little supervision, otherwise you could get fired:p

Obsessions: Deviantart , Emailing the guy who i bought my iphone on ebay from every 5 minutes until he ships the damn thing!, nike+

Winter where art thou?


So its the middle of December and I'm aware that snow has been here already but I need more of it. I need it to stay. It keeps friggin melting and that is not okay with me. Ugh... Is it sad that the better part of my day is spent wishing snow was covering everything? I think its a valid request.

Current obsessions: Jogging in my new Nike+ Shox, New All American Rejects album (hits shelves tomorrow)

Dreaming In Black and White

Every night as I watch your eyes close,
I start to wonder just where your mind goes.
This may be a bit of track,
but I hope you're thinking of me,
because when my eyes close,
I'm thinking of you back.

When that bubble apears above your head,
When you're sleeping soundly in your bed,
Just know that I'm always with you,
Whether its in your bubble above your head
Or next to you in bed,
Just know that I'm there with you.

Do you dream in color or just in outlines?
Because I could be there either way.
Whether you're slaying dragons or dancing slowly,
I could do it all with you there with me.

You know that As long as you're dreaming through a window,
Your heart can take you anywhere you want to go.
Just leave the window open for me.
So in your dreams I'll always be.

What the biz!!! (Scams galore)

It has come to my attention recently and I love haggling with con artists.  I have been in the market for a new phone for quite some time, well ever since my chocolate died last summer, and 
I have found that there are way too many con artists on craigslist, and ebay is certainly not giving me the prices I need.

Last night I found multiple ads just in an Indianapolis craigslist search for iphone, that as I dug in deeper and started asking them buying questions they all had seperate excuses for why I couldnt use paypal or anyother secure transaction type to insure my purchase was legit.  When I asked one of them about a web site so i could read up on his supposed "refund policy" he calmy replied that their web site was under construction.  After that I just chuckled and asked him what other excuses he had that might work better on me. :-P 

One lady tried to tell me that she couldnt use her paypal account because she was going through a divorce. I asked her if she had a phone number or address that I could meet her so i could pay in person so i could inspect the phone before i bought it. She hasnt replied back yet:( I really enjoy their attempts at responding to my emails.

So I often ask myself "what the biz!!!" when I find an iPhone advertisement for $150; then I promptly ask the seller what BS they are sellin.
