First I have to give a shout out to everyone who was so supportive yesterday. I feared a lot of ‘be thankful you even HAVE a dad!’ and ‘at least your dad wants to see you’, kinds of comments, which, I suppose would be fair to leave but I still wouldn’t want to see/read/deal with them. So thanks for sensing the kind of support I needed and givin’ it to me!

Second, yesterday sucked. I got out of work early on the premise that I was going to see my dad. I went to the salon instead. Well, I tried to go to the salon. It seems like everytime I go, I get lost. I take the wrong exit every fricken time. There are 2 exits to Highway5 in Canton. I always take the first and it’s the wrong one. Or I completely drive past it and end up in freaking Chattanooga. Not really, it’s Woodstock but may as well be Tennessee! [Read more →]

Q: When you’re stuck in a boring class or meeting, what’s your favorite way to keep yourself entertained (or at least from falling asleep)?

A: We’re terrible about Blackberries in meetings. I try to keep mine on me, and if I don’t have that I have my iPod touch because I can forward documents to myself and bring up up via email, without having to have printouts, and I can also send reminders to myself.

Okay and play Tetris while sales and ops has an argument over an account update.

Q: What recently developed technology—cell phones, wi-fi, laptops, handheld gaming devices, etc.—do you think has had the worst influence on how people behave in public?
A: Cell phones, for sure. Because without them, I wouldn’t be forced to listen to a one sided argument some lady is having with her man about something or other, all loud, in public. We hear snippets of people’s lives all day, everyday, just by listening to people’s phone convos. Remember when personal life was ‘personal’?

OMFG. The Kindle App for the iPod touch– I have it. The app is free. I just have to buy the books.

*passes out*

I LOVE physical actual books but I never go to the bookstore. I’m SO excited. My list of books I want to read is SO long, and I don’t have any new books at all.

YAY! \o/

ETA: And its backlit. Weeeeeeeeeee!

Q: Do you prefer texting or talking on the phone?

A:Neither. I want my text function turned off except for certain people and I have a well documented hate for the damn phone.

IM or Email is where it’s at, for me. I LOVE email.
