How's Your Day? Archives

Oops. Last paged myself.

Also, package tracking is one of the worst things ever for people with obsessive compulsive personalities.

 

Ain't that the truth!

Good thing you're not a FaceBook fan, Dom. It would make you nuts!

Hey, the Tanglewood concert sounds like an incredibly good time. Do they still bring HS kids there in the summer? I had a friend that attended in the summer of 1977. He said it was amazing.

 

I'm like that too

 

Where else can we get a tub of SC in whatever scent we want for the price you charge.

I'm a happy repeat offender

 

I should be out there banging on leather things. Sighhhhhh 1 last order to go and I'm all caught up

 

Yep, I should be working on pens. My queue is way too big. :shocked031

Guess I need to stop the farming for a few days and hit the bench, eh?

For tonight though, I think I just get some sleep... Goodnight, everyone!

 

Nite Tom, Thanks for filling the pool!

I'm off to be creative, nite everyone!

 

I don't need more things to be addicted to, thank you very much.

Yes they do still bring HS kids and other youth groups there. It's my first time going to Tanglewood, though.

I'm always happy to be offensive.

I agree with Pam. How many places can you get a quality product made for you the way you'd like it?

Oh yeah. Bang on that leather, Pam.

How'd the latest attempt on the case go?

Goodnight, Tom.

I should head to sleep soon, myself.

 

Aw. Goodnight, Pam.

 

Time for me to hit the sack.

Goodnight, all.

 

Hrm, that reminds me, Dad said he sent me the tracking info for something he's having shipped to me but I never got it.
Need to txt him in the morning.

Why is it that I always wake up earlier when camping?

Didn't shut down last night until around 2:00 AM---

Been up for about an hour now.

The weird thing is, I'm not any more tired than I normally would be.

 

okay, so much to catch up on, I know I'm going to miss 1 or 12, so don't take it personal if I don't mention something I thought about mentioning while thinking about what I needed to mention.....

Micah, sorry to hear about your grandmother
...and waking up early while camping. I did the same thing last week while we stayed in a camper at the beach - 6:00 am, I'm wide awake. This after staying up til at least 1:30 am...for undisclosed reasons
(by the way, whoever said "ladies first" was only partially correct...oh, the rewards when you make it lady first, second, third, fifth, and seventh...)

Shep, sorry to see that you feel the need to step down. I thought you brought a new energy to the aftershave area, with weekly chats and all...now I guess Matt has to pull up the slack there now

Bill...what the carp? they made you a mod?!?! Inconceivable!

Jen, sorry the job is boring you, guess it's not as exciting as staying up all night and cramming for tests a la college, eh?
well, 4 words: welcome to real life

JoAnna, glad you're feeling well and catching up on orders (though I am concerned of your want ads seeking assassins on facebook....

Everyone else: Hey!

and thanks for the congrats!

 

Now, update time:


before I left, I had two issues come up which nearly caused self-inflicted head trauma
1) Dell order that lost a mouse - well, mouse came in the following Monday; I was happy, wife was happy, everything was good on that front.

2) touch screen on my cell phone died. normally wouldn't be a big deal, except it's nearly impossible to do anything on it as there are very few physical buttons to do phone tasks, and those were limited to making calls - again, the main reason for having a phone, and in reality the only feature I desire, but with several family members that text me frequently, I could neither read nor respond to their messages.
Stopped by a Verizon store to plead my case, expecting the worst, and lo and behold they went right into getting a new phone on it's way to me...:happy108

Well, it came in while we were out of town, so I didn't get the benefit of having it while on vacation, but the end result was very worth the wait...

since I got the phone at an Alltel store before the takeover, I got an LG Glimmer:



over all, not a bad phone, but I grew weary of some of its limitations - and I know Micah was sure tired of having to call me again, or wait for me to call back, when I'd try to open the slider and not quite get a good grip on it, to have it slide back down and hang up

well, since the Verizon takeover, the Glimmer is no longer available, so they substituted for me. Now, I wish they would have called and said such, and maybe say "we can offer X for free, or you can pick up the phone of your choice for X discount", but they didn't, and yes, I agree it is totally their discretion to do so, it's just that historically, I end up with a slightly bittersweet taste of the deal - sure, you get a new free phone, but not necessarily one you would have picked on your own accord.

However, this was an exception to the rule:



LG Env Touch Screen is now my phone, and I can say I do love it, especially compared to the glimmer (truth be told, I probably would have picked a blackberry or HTC, but this will certainly be more than adequate!)
And, they sent me a free car charger for the "inconvenience".
Wow is all I can say.

 

so true....



So Jim, is that a Brew phone or a true Java? I hate Verizon's Brew phones. I just didn't realize how much I hated the brew phones until I started using the web on the phone this last 6 months.

speaking of brew.. maybe it is time for some. (I am a bit sickie this morning so have been a tad bit off...)

 

Hey guys, I just did a post about how evaporative cooling air conditioners work, I also changed up the colors a little, tell me what you all think!

 

Morning, folks.

Sweet deal on the phone, Jim.

Sometimes, I catch my Lego buildings on fire. That'll have the lessor concerned.

 

yes, absolutely true!

as for the phone, I don't keep up with cell phone technologies that much, so....
*Google-Google*
it appears it is a BREW phone (very clever, BREW and JAVA )
not sure if it will be any kinda of issue for me (doubtful), unless it affects the web-browsing a lot, which I am considering adding...the specs say HTML capable, but I only want it if I can do the handful of things I'm even considering getting it for...TSD, web email, FB, google maps, etc
