My new cellphone is here – Nokia N8

by

I finally got a new cellphone! The last time I got a new cellphone was in 2006 and that was from a marketing company so I was more than a little overdue for a new phone.

It’s a Nokia N8 and so far it seems to be pretty nice. It’s fully loaded with all kinds of things including and FM radio and a 12 megapixel Camera and Camcorder and maps. I’m still discovering everything about it as I’ve only had the phone since Monday. The only other phone that I really considered was the htc incredible s virgin but the Nokia N8 won out, likely because of the camera capabilities seeing as I’m a photographer.

I tested out the camera earlier today and it works very nicely. I’m still getting used to since I’m so used to my much larger “real” camera, but I think I’ll have fun comparing the picture quality between my 8 mpg Camera and my new Cellphone.





The Foo Fighters Documentary

by

Why am I always distracted when I’m trying to work on the computer? My husband is watching TV and he happens to be watching The Foo Fighters: Back and Forth and of course, since I really like the band and I’m watching the show more that I am working on the computer. Not good, not good at all. LOL

Oh well.

Now Dave Grohl is talking about when Kurt Cobain met Courtney Love and how they got into drugs and stuff. Too bad they never tried going to naltrexone acamprosate campral treatment centers maybe Kurt would still be alive. Of course maybe the Foo Fighters wouldn’t have been created if Kurt was still around.

I guess I’d better get back to splitting my time watching tv and trying to work at the same time.

My husband starts his holiday next week

by

My husband is going to be on holiday for the last two weeks of June. We didn’t plan any big vacation though … we don’t have a lot of spare money and just a week after he returns to work he has a one week temporary layoff and then another one in August.

If we were rolling in dough four weeks off would be great .. but uhm … no, that’s not the way it works.

Anyway … sometime during Chris’ holiday I want to have a little get together, maybe a barbecue with friends. I was looking at this party invitation site and I came across all kinds of invitations, I even found Seafood Boil Invitations. I won’t be having a Sea Food boil since well .. sea food is kind of expensive and I’m also deadly allergic to it, but we’ll do something interesting.

I don’t know what we’ll do for the rest of the holiday, probably get things done around the house and then find some interesting things to do in the Toronto area. Good things for us that there’s lots to do in Toronto, especially at this time of year!

Rock Climbing is risky!

by

I was talking with one of my friends earlier today and I was very surprised by something that I learned. My friend is very outdoorsy … like I used to be before I got so sick.

She’s always out jogging, hiking and she goes rock climbing pretty much every weekend. I too used to rock climb regularly … so this is the part that really shocked me … Did you know that when you participate in activities like these that you might need higher risk life insurance? Yeah, it’s true.

She only found out because she recently applied for life insurance and I guess as she filled out the paperwork she listed her rock climbing activities and she was denied regular life insurance. Oops!

Finding a Father’s Day gift

by

My husband is trying to figure out what to get his father for Fathers Day. Yes I know, it’s a little bit late to be searching for a present, but not too late!

His father doesn’t have a lot of hobbies so that doesn’t help. He does love hockey though, so we might get him some hockey DVDs – like classic games and things like that.

My husbands brother was suggesting that we think about getting him a radar detector – maybe a whistler radar detector. I’m not sure if he’d use it or not. We might get it … I’ll have to check it out a bit more though. Have any of you tried using one of these? Did you like it, were you happy with it?
