I was at a gas station/truck stop near Crawfordsville, IN (Exit 39, I-74) for a rest stop. I went into the bathroom and was faced with the dreaded 1-3-5 at a 5-spot urinal (if you are a girl, you might not understand, play this game for more info).
I opted for a stall instead, and after [...]
This weekend we went to Springfield, IL for a wedding. My wife took me to work and then picked me up at lunch to leave so we would not have to leave a car somewhere and so I didn’t have to drive back home since work is on the way.
She forgot to get the [...]
Last night I went shopping with my wife at the mall to get a present for my sister-in-law’s 20th birthday.
It was the first time I have gone shopping (2+ hours) without my iPhone since I got it back in October.
It was a……… different experience. I had nothing to do, to fiddle with or play on. [...]
I got used to waking up to my iPhone alarm. I had alarms set for each day (my work hours vary through the week). I set my alarm for one day, and forgot to change it last night. Today, I was 15 minutes late. Whoops.
16 more days.
It’s on it’s way. Here are a few videos of me packing it up last night.
The funny thing about shipping it? I got to the Post Office at lunch and realized I didn’t have Tom’s address. I have grown to rely on just being able to pull what I need up when [...]
I was out of town 3.5 days for a conference last week, followed by 2 days of vacation at a cabin. I checked my email on a laptop twice between Tuesday and Sunday afternoon. Once at the conference, once quickly while unpacking/repacking.
So where will this put me over the next 20 days without my iPhone? [...]
I let Tom in on the site here, and he has already commented on the last post. He’s going to join in on the site and film the receiving/unpacking in Norway when the phone arrives.
As it turns out, Paypal refuses to ‘confirm’ international addresses, even though his account is ‘verified’. Very strange [...]
Tom from Norway had an unconfirmed account on Paypal, so I asked him to confirm it before I would accept the money, so we are both protected by Paypal for the transaction. I had to send the initial payment back to him, and it has yet to hit his account. Once it hits his account, [...]
My parents are in town, and my dad wants to grill out for supper. The problem: we didn’t have a grill yet. BUT, we did see one for really cheap at Menard’s last weekend. $69.99. Nothing fancy, no side burners, etc. Just what we needed though since we rarely grill out and we haven’t built [...]
Today we had to run a lot of errands, so I jotted notes on my iPhone as the day went along. Here is what all I used it for:
Find Indy Tire. I had a free tire rotation/balance, and wasn’t sure where the closest one to me was.
Look up Jen’s pin # for the Library. They [...]
