Finally, who to vote for..

Well, here's my effort to get out to vote.. Everyone should, but in case you were confused by the various candidates and views, here's the Starwars Guide to the Candidates

My Life as a Cartoon

I'm becoming increasingly convinced that I live inside of a cartoon. I'm not exactly sure why.. I look around at the other characters that I see from day-to-day, and, honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if someone pulled out a giant mallet with, "ACME" emblazoned on the side and took a swing at me..

Maybe this is a function of having a son that's a month away from being 2.. It could also be that I have yet to do things the "right way"...

Junk

On a previous post (one below this one, as a matter of fact), Taco noted that he has a strange addiction to seeing what people's workspaces look like. I have to admin to a similar malady. I love seeing people's stuff. I used to get yelled at by persons I was walking with when passing through the dorms because of my habit of looking into other people's rooms to see what they had laying around and how they were laid-out. I guess there's a little voyeur in all of us. I don't know, it seems to me you can find out a lot about someone by looking at what they have laying around -- usually a lot more than what you'd find out speaking with them.

With that lengthy preface, I give you, links!
Face your pockets
What's in your bag?

Things like the above make me wish I were more interesting and carried more interesting stuff.. Someday I'll have to post a pic of the stuff I carry around more than half of the time..

Abode

Yeah, it's kind of corny, but it's where I spend about 45-50 hours a week.. My office..

What Koolaid?

Well, I've drunk the Koolaid, and I'm convinced it was spiked with something tast... *thud*

Actually, last weekend, I bought a new phone. I've joined the nearly ubiquitous iPhone crowd. I realized with all of the junk I'm doing at work that I'd need some kind of "smartphone." I narrowed my list down to either a Palm Treo 750, or an Apple iPhone. After pondering it for a while, I decided it was really about the bells and whistles, and down that not-so-lonely road I traipsed.

So far I really like it. It's very easy to use and rarely gives me cause to toss it. So far, the only thing it doesn't do is tell me when I have new work e-mail. That's not a huge problem as I can hit my employer's web-based e-mail system.

How'd I end up here?

I mean, what the hell? Life was pretty simple, and BAM! here I am.. Maybe I should open this with something like, "Hell yeah, I'm all up in yo' scene!"..

After two of my close friends ended up here (Taco and Grimm), I figured this would be the best way to keep up with them. So here I am.. expect more..
