About The Girl

I'm a mid 20's housewife with 3 and a half beautiful children, and an amazing husband. I'm a jack of most trades and a master of none. I hail from an expanding New England town, just returning from a Podunk, crappy village hundreds of miles west of home.

I love photography, though, I haven't had the energy to pick up my camera very much since becoming pregnant with our baby. It is said that musicians often become photographers because it's their way to express creativity where it would be lost otherwise, and I have to agree. I love capturing the world through my eyes. Anyone who knows me knows that I love to document things that happen in my life. Photography has proven to be the perfect outlet for me.

Phone Conversations

Me: So I got you a present.

Husband: What?

Me: An iTrip.

Husband: Really?! Wow.

Me: Well, I've been listening to my iPod on shuffle, and I've been enjoying it. I figured we could test it on our trip this weekend.

Husband: That's great!

Me: But we have to use my iPod.

Husband: Oh... why?

Me: Because mine is impartial.

Husband: What do you mean?

Me: Well, I put the artists I like on it, but I also put the artists you like on it. You only put the artists you like on yours.

Husband: Is that true?

Me: Yes.

Husband: So basically... you're saying my iPod is biased.

Me: Yep, basically.

MyVu Personal Media Viewer

I was reading through RollingStones magazine a couple weeks ago and I saw an interesting add for something I've never seen before.  Its called the MyVu Person Media Viewer, it pretty much plays a movie for you in a pair of sunglasses.  They are pretty chic in terms of style (NOW we know why Jordy LaForge wore them in Star Trek!), and apparently MyVu uses certain crystal viewer technology in their devices.

Apple: Stop trying to make me buy your shitty software

When I purchased a Macbook Pro, I obtained a free iPod Touch through Apple's student promotion. The buying experience wasn't super pleasant: The salesperson played psychology games with me, agreeing with everything I said til I said the opposite, and then agreeing with that. He also slid AppleCare—which I did not ask for—into my bag. He tried a few times to get me to purchase MobileMe software, which he claimed would allow me to "publish to the world." I removed AppleCare and declined to purchase any additional software. As I left the store, I noticed that my Macbook Pro box looked beaten in places, and the tape had been cut and another piece placed over it. I became a little paranoid, thinking that I'd gotten a refurbished computer.

upcoming changes for Apple products?

MacBook redesign?

Multitouch screen?

A "mini-Mac"?

I love Apple. I am admittedly a part of the cult. So hearing rumors of an upcoming redesign is pretty exciting, in my opinion. According to Business Week, we may be seeing some of the afore-mentioned new developments in the coming months. I can't wait. Watching Steve Jobs' keynote is pretty much the highlight of my week. I'm not afraid to admit that either - except to the majority of my friends.
