It's really time for me to get rid of the ghetto phone. I spent a lot of money on it and the non-phone features really are essential. BUT IT SUCKS AT BEING A PHONE. I know that people I'd really like to talk to aren't getting through. I've dealt with the orange bullethole looking thing in the display since it was 2 weeks old ("Not covered by Cingular's insurance, sorry!") and I'll be damned if they'll get a new contract from me- but this thing is hit.



Now the antenna is awol and it's only getting signal with an alligator clip. I'm torn between getting another insane high tech thing I can take notes on, and something that will actually function as a phone.

On other fronts, Meme Tech is busy as @#(*&#%. Going white water rafting this weekend with Tango. Reading good books, meeting some rather interesting female humans, hanging with friends and enjoying the summer. The youngest goddaughter, Asana Hasu, is suddenly walking. The middle one is getting cranky and working to establish her own separate identity from - The oldest who is an alpha princess. They are the coolest people I know. I haven't seen the boys in a while, but I'm sure they are loving life and working their mom to death.

Working on art projects for the first time in a while, there's a thing to get out of my system. Going to the gym & systema lots and finally don't feel pain in my back when I do things - which is amazing! Anyway, I need to go figure out a way to MacGyver some waterproof vinyl something around this alligator clip.

Life is still good.
