Textiness

I need to get more pictures on this blog. Too much text is bad for your health.

New time waster (as if I need one) - fluther.com. You ask questions and get answers. You answer questions and get lurve. It's that simple.

The site seemed limitless, at first, until I realized that no one on there really shares the same interests as me. Many are knowledgeable about computers, and everyone has an opinion on music and religion, but other than that it's a little dry. Also, the people who have been there a long time tend to ignore the noobs. I guess that's the way it is everywhere...

Also, I only JUST started getting RSS feeds. I'd heard about them, but thought it was some complex process to get them. To make using them easier, I've downloaded the Better GReader plugin for Firefox. Better GMail is making me smile also =D

It's only a matter of time before I start using del.icio.us and digg and all those fun things.

Note to self: I should start embedding videos in here, too. Mmmmhmmmmm...

Order being restored // chaos=pwned

I think I use the word pwned way too much.

Yesterday (as in Tuesday) I quit my job. I'm off to greener pastures. Actually, I'm planning to get a job about 300 ft from my last one, at a REAL Starbucks. No joke.

That being said, I feel like I gotta reevaluate my priorities. I haven't been reading nearly as much as I should have. Maybe I should commit to a project like ArtGeek81 to motivate me.

Really, I just need to get off Youtube. I just passed 19,000 video views...

New Word

In my last post, I used the word "smexy", which is something I sometimes say IRL because it sounds right. But I think a more appropriate word would be "spexy". As in, it has many good specs and it's sexy. Spexy. Think about it.

Room to Breathe

Finally! After a month of procrastination, I've gotten around to purchasing a Seagate Barracude 1TB hard drive from NCIX.com. Express shipping was only $10, so it BLEW MY MIND how fast I received it- ordered at 1:30pm Thursday, received at 10:30am Friday. WOW.

Aaaaaaanyway, I'm excited to kick expand the Hack. As I clean my room I'm imagining the possibilities with a dual boot system. *sigh*

In other news, I've decided it's about time I upgrade my clunky Nokia 6101 from 3ish years ago to a newer phone. While I daydream about the iPhone from time to time, I believe that reality is calling for a Nokia 5310 (red), a smexy little music phone.

In other other news, I'm contemplating my options with regards to employment. Meaning I may quit my job... Which makes paying for all of these gadgets a little more difficult.

Oh, life. How quickly you move.
