Man, two posts in one day.
See, here’s the thing. I want this new 3G iPhone and now I think I have a reason to get one. My current iPhone crashes almost every time I run Safari on it. Seriously, it happens a ton. I don’t like having to restore all the time. 
Yesterday was the one year birthday of the iPhone. I loved it then, I still do. 
Tomorrow is July 1st and the new phone comes out on the 11th. I will be in line, I will buy one, I will feel fine about it.
Thank you old iPhone for giving me a real reason.

It's been a while

So, it’s been a long time since I’ve update this blog. Sorry to both of you who have ever seen it.

As soon as I think of something interesting to write (that takes more than 140 characters) I’ll update here again.

All my best,

Explaining Twitter

I’ve read a lot of posts on how to explain Twitter to someone. I have found my way, my script for explaining it. I thought I’d present it here in full.

Here goes:

I don’t. I’ve given up. I am finding that there are two groups of people, those that get it (or want to) and those that don’t.

If you don’t get it or don’t want to get it, guess what, you won’t. You’ll continue to think it’s about giving people needless updates or adding to the “noise.”

Is it about that? Sure, sometimes. Who hasn’t had a “I’m eating a burrito. Yummy!” Tweet now and again. We’re all guilty of this. But it’s so much more. The concept of community is lost on those who don’t get it.

And I am done trying to help the see the light.

These things drive me crazy. I mean, there’s a new law and all that makes it illegal to talk on the phone without one, but still, they make me nuts. I use mine in the car and only in the car. Even then, I take it out of my ear the second that call is over.
I do not like it when people walk around with them in their ears all day. I can never tell if they’re talking to me or if they’re on the phone. This bothers me.
Also, how important do you have to be to have it in your ear, ready to go at all times? 
And don’t tell me that you forget about it after a while. No you don’t. 
Liar.

I just finished reading (listening to via audible) this book. It’s awesome. Donald Miller gives some really great insights about what it means to be a Christian.
It’s a cool one to listen to because Miller’s delivery is great. Sometimes an author can be a great writer, but not a great reader. He’s able to deliver his material in a great way.
Check it out.

All kinds of stuff

So, I keep adding more things to my online life. It’s crazy.

Twitter. Love it. Don’t know how I lived without it. If it’s down, I don’t know what to do with my life.

Flickr. Another love. No one sees my pictures but that’s ok, no one sees this blog either.

Tumblr. I also dig this. I wish there was a way I could have comments on it but I can’t figure it out. I’m also lame.

FriendFeed. New to this one, but I think it’s going to be pretty sweet. I’ll let you know.

Pownce. Nope. I have an account. I don’t use it.

Facebook. Fail. Don’t get it, don’t want to. Over it.

Then there’s socialthing, brightkite, the list goes on and on.

I can’t do them all, but I will try.

That’s just how I roll. 


My kids have reached boiling point. Pink eye in one and just crabby in the other. It will be quiet when they’re asleep no peace tilll then.

I’m eating tuna right from a can. At least I have some soy sauce on it. Yeah, that makes it better.

Day 2 of the new diet & workout plan. I’m craving a donut but will have dry eggs and wheat toast instead.
