A Smattering of Blurbs

  • Still up in the air about the 3G iPhone and it’s only a few days away.  It’s going to raise my phone bill another $30 a month.  I really don’t mind that much, but I have plenty of wi-fi access for net browsing.  Maybe I’ll try canceling the 3G data plan after I sign up.  I will get 150 more texts messages though; yet I’ve never broken 40 in an entire month.
  • I’ve been looking at apartment sublets in Chicago lately and feel like moving there for a couple months or two.  I picked up a part time gig at Mahalo recently writing guides and it’s fairly lucrative for the amount of “work” I have to put into it.  Anyway, I’m weighing my options while stockpiling money like Scrooge McDuck.  Maybe it would be cool try some sort of urban nomading for a while; limited to cities without the need for a car.
  • I’m not going to E3 this year.  I have the press pass ready to go, but flights were ridiculously expensive this year.  It was going to cost me something in the range of $1,200 for airfare, hotel, various expenditures.  Boooooo!
  • I totally want a Flip Mino so I can start cranking out some Vlogs.  I played with one at Best Buy and just loved it.  The video quality isn’t HD, but the quality is darn good.  My Canon digital camera shoots average video, but the microphone just plan sucks.  Plus the Mino takes about an hour of video.
  • And if my sister is reading this, the answer to your last question is SHIRTS!  I’m completely dependent on your fashion sense and survive from Christmas to late July on whatever clothing items I receive from you.
