Yesterday I picked up a BlackBerry Curve in Red! Very nice, very cool. I've been putting off buying a smart phone like this because I have a Dell Axim pda and I didn't want to give up on it. But, it's been a real pain carrying around my phone and my pda. I was changing my cell phone plan anyway so I thought what the heck. Besides, I can't be a geek with a plain old cell phone!

How many people does it take to hang a picture?

If only it were that easy. Hmpf.

My very good friend, and the person who got me my current job, was fired today. Not only that, but the long time number 2 man turned in his resignation today. Things have not been good for a while at the office. Cash flow is tight. The direction of the company has changed since I hired in. The project list is short and not very interesting. Interesting to me anyway.

The weird thing about Ronda getting fired is that she said it happened right in the middle of a meeting! Like it was something that just occurred to the owner! I'm sure he'd been thinking about it but you'd think it would be a meeting of its own. Strange. Very strange.

The thing is now no one can feel safe. No one can be trusted.

I just bought a new house. Shit.

Very cool and somewhat depressing. I did the Life Expectancy Calculator and my virtual age is 59.8 and my life expectancy is only 64.2 years. I'm currently 48 years old. Yikes. The World Clock is pretty cool.
