New Gadget

This is my mandatory cell phone post. Okay, so it's not mandatory but I figure I should gush about it here and now so I can get it out of the way. Plus, whenever I try to talk to Master about it He just looks at me like I'm crazy because He thinks a cell phone should only make phone calls. He doesn't even like the texting bit.

So anyway, I got up at 7am today. I actually had to wake the dog up to take him outside. *laughs* Normally he's the one jumping on the bed telling me to get the hell up because he has to pee. In fact if I didn't know better I would have thought he was cranky because I woke him up.

Anyway, I took the dog out and got myself ready. I left almost immediately after I was fully dressed. I left Master a message in case He was up before I got home. (He hasn't been sleeping for shit.. as usual... so I didn't know how late He would be getting up.)

I got down to my mom's around 8am. I made pretty good time. I went inside and hung out with her for a little while. We went to the cell phone store and sat outside of it for a good ten minutes.

We were literally the first people in the door but what was funny was that there was a line of people waiting to get in. There wasn't a sale going on or anything so I have no idea why they were so busy.

But since we were first in the door we were helped immediately. I didn't even really have to look around at phones. I had looked at their selection online and since I had been able to play around with my mom's phone I knew that was the one I wanted.

So it didn't really take that long at all. They got me one of the phones and transferred all of the information from my old cell phone onto my new one. I got the Motorola Electrify M. Both my mother and my brother had this phone and raved about it so I knew I was going to get a damn good phone. It was on sale too, so that helped my decision.

I also made sure to get a shell/holster for it. I don't really like having a phone without a holster. Especially since it's a touch screen phone. I don't want it getting scratched or anything.

They put the shell on for me and made sure my phone had the settings I wanted on it. That way I wouldn't have to dick with all the basic set-up later and I could go right into playing with it and setting it up how I wanted it as far as look and ringtones.

I took my mom on a couple of errands before dropping her back off at home. I then went home. Master was still asleep when I got back. Like I said, it didn't take long at the store and neither did the errands. As a result I got to play with my new gadget. I fucking love this phone. It's the first phone I've ever had a data plan on and as a result the first phone I've had that you can have apps on!

I set up some of the ones that I really wanted and got my wallpaper and ringtones all set up. I'm glad they were able to transfer my pictures and contacts. I would have hated to lose those pictures and have to set up all those contacts again. I have plenty in there, trust me.

I've played with it a little after Master woke up but not too much. But I love it and I love the shell/holster that I bought as well. Happy Kitten.

And tonight I'm going to get laid! Even happier Kitten. Master is feeling a lot better and so am I. It's definitely time to fuck. We're not used to going that long without sex. *laughs*

Excited

Apparently my current cell phone is dying more and more each day. It's a slow death for this cell phone unlike my last one that died rather suddenly. It's a good thing I'm going tomorrow to get a new one. I don't really feel safe driving on the interstate without a cell phone. Especially not for extended periods of time. So I've been a little anxious on the interstate the past few days.

But in order to get my new toy tomorrow I have to get up at 7am on a Saturday morning and head on down shortly there after. I want in that store literally as soon as the doors open. I know it's still going to take a while but it's better than being there for four hours because the place is packed.

My mother was picking on me today while I talked to her on my lunch break because she knows how excited I am. I'm like a kid about it. This is extremely rare thing for me. I normally do not get this way about material possessions. Anyone will tell you that, especially Master.

But because I don't spend a lot of money on myself like ever, I get excited when it's a new piece of tech in my little paws. This will honestly be the first thing in three years that I've splurged on for myself. Normally it's for Master or for us as a couple. I prefer that nine times out of ten. But this time, I'm really excited and really happy for myself.

I know Master is happy for me too but that doesn't stop Him from picking on me. For instance He made fun of the fact that I'm going to get up that early on a Saturday and how I'm willing to do that just to get a new cell phone. *laughs*

Bells and Whistles

Well, I'm pretty much over that head cold. However, yesterday I ended up coming home two hours early because I was sick a few times the night before and during the work day. As a result I pretty much came home and lazed on the couch until I had to go to bed. Master made me go to bed on time, which is probably the smartest thing I could have done. I feel a lot better today. Master is pretty much over the head cold too. The only thing that is really hanging onto Him is the cough and the fact that His pretty much lost His voice. It's really odd having Master not being able to talk much above a whisper. He normally has a very deep voice so yeah, it's a little odd. Poor Master.

Since I left work two hours early yesterday I have to make sure I make those two hours up. I got a half hour in yesterday so I only need an hour and a half and I have three days to do that in so no problem there.

And this Saturday I am going to go get a new cell phone. My old one is a little over two years old, not that that's a big deal or anything. But it's started acting up for a couple of months now and it didn't help that this past Sunday I was driving down to my dad's and I had a styrofoam cup of coffee from the gas station. Well, while I'm driving down there some asshole decided to slam on the fucking brakes for no apparent reason while everyone is doing 60mph. I had to slam on my brakes as a result and apparently I squeezed the cup just enough for the lid to come off and send half the damn coffee right into my lap. As a result some of it got on my cell phone. Yeah. That did not help matters. It still works but when I'm talking it sounds like it's underwater.

Yes, a new cell phone is in order.

I already know which phones I'm going to choose between. I want to play with them a little first before I make my decision. Why do I have to wait until Saturday? Well, I'm on my mother's family plan and she's the main line so she has to be present for various reasons.

So first thing Saturday morning I'm driving down there and will come home with a brand new gadget!

Master is always yelling at me for not spending money on myself and I love my gadgets so I've decided I'm going to get a nicer phone this time. It's going to be my early birthday present to myself. After all I'll be 30 in less than two months and that's a milestone of sorts. Why not splurge?

He is making fun of me for wanting a gadget like phone. He thinks phones are only for talking. Not texting or surfing the internet or any of that jazz. Just a phone. No bells or whistles. So He picks on me about the fact that I like gadget phones with as many bells and whistles as possible!

It's my one and only splurge like thing I do for myself. I'm excited about it because I can come home and play around with it and all that stuff. It's so stupid that I get excited about a new cell phone but I am!

Stupid Headache

It needs to rain again. Actually, what I would really like is for a good, hard, loud as hell storm that doesn't knock the power out. Yeah, I'm not being to picky at all right? Right. *pft*

I have this damn headache in my left temple that is slowly but surely spreading it's happy go lucky self across my forehead. And I hate it. I want it to go away and never come back.

I want to read my book, but I don't want to wear my glasses. I've been wearing my glasses for 8 hours today, and after a while, since I don't wear them 24/7, they start to make my eyes hurt. On top of that I wore them for a good chunk of time yesterday since I felt like lazing about on the couch reading. So no more reading for me tonight.

Work went pretty well.

Master's interview turned out to not really be an interview. It turned out to be a bunch of people who got called in for said "interview", when in fact all they did was explain the job and have them fill out an application. You know, the thing Master already filled out online. So that pretty much felt like a wasted trip to Master.

He then surprised His mother by meeting up with her on her lunch break. She seemed to enjoy that. But apparently her router (you know, the one I just fixed) is "broken" and so she had ordered a new one. She is going to have her husband try and set it up, and if that doesn't work then they're going to ask me to fix it.

Also my mother told me that the font size on her computer is to small. I tried walking her through fixing that, but that didn't work. I do better with hands on stuff, and since we don't have the same OS I couldn't follow her step by step, and she isn't very good at explaining what she's looking at. She glides through all the things on the screen, and doesn't slow down. And then I tell her to click on something and she clicks on the wrong thing. I love her, the gods know I do, but sometimes when I try helping her with that kind of stuff I want to reach through the phone and smack her one.

So the next time I go down there (it won't be a special trip this time) she wants me to take a look at it.

I should start my own business with this shit. The problem being I don't know enough to actually do that. I know enough to help with small things, but sooner or later I'd be in way over my head.

So anyway, I looked into the Netflix selections for Yoga and Pilates, and I found a ton of them! Rock on! So I loaded a few into queue and we'll see how that goes. I won't be starting tonight, but hopefully tomorrow? I'll have to try and pry the Xbox controller out of Master's hands for a while. ;-)

Then once I have some of them down, hopefully I won't even need to watch the videos, at least not every time. I know, I know. I'm getting way ahead of myself. But this has to beat a gym membership any day. This way it doesn't cost me extra money, and it doesn't eat up gas in the car, and if it's nasty weather out, it won't matter. Yay!

Thank you for the suggestions ladies!
