I Got the Last One!!!

I'm a gadget geek. Anyone that knows me knows that. I got the first iPhone and absolutely loved it. The new one came out on the 11th and I wasn't going to get one, but listen to my reasoning: The new iPhone is faster, better looking, and...well...it's newer. It also only cost me $300 (as opposed to the $500 I spent on the first one). Well the thing is the older iPhone is still selling for about $500 on eBay. So I get to make $200 and get a newer, faster phone. Is that crazy of me? I got up at about 5:30 AM, stood in line for about 3 hours, and got one. They came out and asked people which phone they were going to get to try and gauge where the "direct fulfill" orders would start. I was right on the line. The guy told me that as long as no one changed their mind in front of me I'd probably get what I wanted. The store only got 10 16gb white, 10 16gb black, and 20 8gb black phones. They were only letting 1 person in per sales person and then locking the door. One person would leave, they'd unlock the door then let the next person in and lock the door behind them. I finally got to the front of the line and followed the sales person to their computer. There was a girl walking around with the phones in her arms dispensing them as needed. I could see one white box in the stack so when the sales person asked me what I wanted I pointed and she said, "you got the last one". I about went through the roof I was so happy. I not only got the last 16gb white iPhone, I got the last 16gb iPhone. I felt kinda bad because the guy behind me was apparently there a few hours before me but went out to breakfast...you snooze, you lose I guess. I've never waited in line for anything before, but I got to tell you it was pretty fun. Getting to know complete strangers, having them pretty much cheer for you when they found out I got the phone that I wanted. Good times.

Capitain Huggy Face Dance

My sister told me about this show on PBS. I still haven't seen the show, but I found the video of the Capitain Huggy Face dance. I guess he does it with each new word they learn, different word - same dance. So I hope it makes you as happy as it makes me.

IT'S ALIVE!!!

Well it's still not 100% done, but it's live. Check out my new website at www.pinkskimask.com.

Coming in the Air...

Well it's really going to happen. pinkskimask.com is getting close to its launch. It will be my own site designed by myself with a little help from my friend (and possibly future boss/co-worker) Bryant. I've already got the domain name so go ahead and check it out http://www.pinkskimask.com/. Unfortunately right now all you will see is that GoDaddy.com is parking the site for free. Just let all your friends and neighbors know that there is a change on the wind. CAN YOU FEEL IT COMING IN THE AIR TONIGHT?

New Logo

Well I decided to practice a little designing so I tried out a new logo for the blog. I know it's not much but I'm going to be changing it from time to time as I get a little better with logo design and such. Enjoy.

Long Time, No Job

So I haven't posted anything for a while. Not that I have been busy or anything. I take that back, I've been busy looking for a job. Looking being the key word. I have had a couple of interviews, but nothing that was any good. I've just been recovering from a double hernia as well. But I'm doing well, just want to start working. So if anyone knows of any non-sales marketing jobs let me know (or openings at McDonald's).

My Week

Let me just tell you how my week has gone:

Monday: The only normal day this week. Took care of the kids etc., etc., etc.

Tuesday: Went to the doctor because I suspected that I had a hernia. He said that I had one on my right side, but my left side was fine.

Wednesday: Got a call from the surgeons office letting me know they could fit me in that day. Sat at the doctors for about an hour and a half. He said that I had one on my left side, but that the right side was probably going to go anytime now. He said that I could get them done at the same time.

Thursday: They got me in real fast. Surgery went great and I am hernia free (not in the least bit pain free, but hernia free).

Friday (today): Sat around a lot and tried to get up by myself.

Saturday: Going to see Dave Ramsey. Lets see if I make it through the day.

Seedless Pickles

Has anyone else noticed the pickles at McDonald's don't have seeds. I've decided either they are genetically engineered to not have seeds or...THEY AREN'T PICKLES AT ALL!!! I don't know what they are but maybe they're not pickles.

Too much time

This is what happens when you learn some new tricks in Photoshop and have all of nap time to play with Photoshop. It's what the family really looks like at home (you should see the "person" taking the picture).
