choke on that causality

Do you ever wake up in the morning and your entire arm is just a big dead lump? Like you slept on it all night and completely cut off all circulation. That has been happening to me a lot lately it seems. Even with my leg too. It’s kinda freaky.

Ugh. Not really looking forward to getting the day started today. I have to catch up on bills and a lot of cleaning and laundry and shit. I’ve really been slacking lately. I used to be way more organized I swear. I think I just need a simple consistent place to put all my bills and I don’t think it would be so damn frustrating every time I digging though the desk or table or coffee table or wherever to find what I need. Yeah seems pretty simple. And it should be. Like I said…slacking… Hey it was my birthday week.

I mentioned the other day that I lost my phone. Thank chebus I had insurance though, cause I was overnighted a new one for only a $50 deductible. I recommend paying the 5 bucks a month insurance to anyone…cause it is worth it. The frustrating thing though about trying to activate and troubleshoot your phone is that you aren’t able to call from your actual phone. You’d think they’d have some sort of chat available for circumstances like that. Nope. Luckily it is all fixed now…I just don’t have any phone numbers anymore….Yes I’m a dumbass for not backing them up. Whatever.

I read this article about the doomed hd dvd format. Thought I’d pass it along. I was planning on getting a PS3 anyhow…

Wal-Mart to officially discontinue HD DVD sales by June - Engadget

I don’t really have much to blog about. My life hasn’t been that exciting. I guess we did decide to go ahead and buy that lcd tv. That’s news right. It’s pretty cool, and we moved the other tv into the bedroom, which is convenient. I guess I’m going to have to learn the whole HD thing and how to get that all set up.

I’ve been thinking about whether or not I should start drinking again. I know that’s a taboo subject or whatever…like I’m falling off the wagon. And I’ll tell myself it’ll be different this time or whatever. But I’ve been analyzing the reasons I quit, and my behavior in the past, and my will power over the last year… I haven’t made any definite decisions one way or the other. I’ve just been thinking. I used to enjoy drinking. I know…a little too much. But I may not have quit for the right reasons. That sounds silly. Like does any reason have to be ‘right’ to quit drinking. Like it’s a big loss…especially health wise, but it was just a little too easy to blame all my problems on alcohol. I don’t think this is a peer pressure type of situation…I mean it’s true that it’s came to mind because I’ve been around others drinking recently. And I miss that feeling of bonding, loosened boundaries, and just making me less uptight and more inclined to have a good time that all comes with having some drinks. Jeez all that sounds stupid. I guess I have some thinking to do.

I feel like kind of a dork…but I’m really excited about my new blackberry. I got the 8130 Pearl that was just released for Verizon (even though they’ve had it on the gsm side for almost a year now). I haven’t quite gotten used to it yet. It has a qwerty style to the keys, but it’s odd cause it is a 2 letter per button style. It’ll take some getting used to. It’s funny because I never realized how accustomed to the classic layout I was…

Well I got email/web, and I’m trying out the “tethering” as they call it - using it as a modem for your computer. Haven’t tried it yet. I have a month trial. I can’t imagine I’ll use it all that much.

The email is working pretty well. I like that. The web is little hard to read. I went to my blog and it looks pretty messy. I’m going to have to figure out how to make that a little more mobile-friendly.

I know this is old news to some, but the new Philips ambilight-y LCD Television is pretty freakin sweet.

Hands On: iPod nano Review - Gizmodo

Check out this review of the iPod Nano. I’m not sure how I feel about it overall, but it just seems ridiculous to try and watch video on a screen that small….especially wide screen. I’ll pass.
