What Mr. Fab Can Buy Me For Valentine’s Day.

Beth January 20 2007 Humor 8 Comments

I’ve been thinking. I’m a single gal with no prospects of a man in my life any time soon. Why not utilize the next best thing? Hence, the reason I have hand-picked Mr. Fab as my Valentine. Sure, he’s married. But I want his wife to know I’m only going to use him for the Valentine’s Day Gifts after which, she can have him back. As long as he drives me through Taco Bell for a Valentine’s dinner of pintos and cheese, a Sierra Mist, topped off with an apple empanada for dessert, I’m good. Oh, and he has to buy me this Valentine’s Heart Pendant as a small token of his appreciation for me choosing him as my one and only. Is that too much to ask?

A List Too Good Not To Share.

Browsing through the links left by those who participate in the Thursday 13 meme, I found a gem of a list. Giving the credit to curvatude- I think we should all remind ourselves daily by reading this list.

1. Love the people I don’t know.
2. Love the people I do know more.
3. Find the grace or the humor in any situation.
4. Start smiling.
5. Take pride.
6. Become involved.
7. Teach the children well.
8. Believe.
9. View every opportunity as a choice.
10. Share your toys.
11. Share your memories.
12. Give freely.
13. Let your yes be a yes and your no be a no.

With my work schedule- mainly due to the time it takes me to get home, I’ve neglected the Thursday 13. But, today, I have some witty quotes. When you have nothing to say- quote, this is my philosophy.

A recent survey stated that the average person’s greatest fear is having to give a speech in public. Somehow this ranked even higher than death which was third on the list.

The Applie iPhone- Will You Buy It?

Beth January 18 2007 My Geeky Side Comments Off

I’m all for new gadgets. I recently became more gadget friendly when I finally bought a Bluetooth headset for my new phone. Keep in mind I only have a cell in case I break down or need something since I have such a long commute to work. Yet, I have to have the best, the one with the most features, the one that’s the most fun to play with. The Apple iPhone will be available this summer. I’m seriously considering buying it- for the features alone, although this also depends upon the price. The iPhone will double as an iPod with 8GB of storage. I’ll finally have the iPod I’ve wanted for so long, if I decide to buy it. It will also have a QWERTY keyboard-for those of you who do a lot of text-messaging. The phone is so full of features-but my main concern is the price. Will it be worth it? Will any of you buy the phone? Take a look at some of the first photos of the new phone below.
