Vent 101:

You know I come up with two combinations of words thinking..hey..maybe nobody will even think of using this..but NO! Some startup decides to use ZINC..and oh...whaddayaknow!!!..they are involved with ink. WTF! Get your own name!
I am not even going to link to the page..yes..I am a party pooper today.
I forgot to blog on my snow trip to work.. 2 complete hours of pure driving hell on earth lol! It was crawling at a snails pace but I had a ton of music to listen to..

I got so much done in the past three days it is ridiculous..speeding through projects one by one..After working on that ginormous project this new one seems like a piece of cake. variable this..variable that..I often wondered why at my last job the girl wouldn't share the Pageflex work..now I understand why..Specific steps and methods to building a project..

I see that VISTA had some unitard cloned dancers on a side of a building in NYC..this looked insane if you ask me..

Check out Sciencemag.org and their video showing how they capture Stardust samples. One word..aerogel...if that is how you spell it..
So far my Pageflex upgrade isn't to psycotic. If I could wish for one thing it would be a larger pasteboard and added Preferences to change the color of the guidelines. Right now the guidelines are blinding light blue...and the pasteboard is just not large enough to move things around. They added text on a path and you are able to bring in older versions of templates without any major issues. I am hoping in the next upgrade we could have more preferences. I am preference obsessed lol!

I can't use my headphones at work anymore :(
This was my only way to tune out and get things done..now I must listen to humming noises...

I can't seem to get the fire alarm to stop beeping every single minute. I used my super human strength to detach it and put in a new battery..I can't undo it..guess I will have to sleep with a beep all night till Superman comes by...

waiting 2 days for myspace customer service...maybe it isn't open on weekends..I did receive a bot message though..not much help those bots..

*update...still waiting..approaching day 5*

We are welcoming a new MacBook Pro to the herd...but this one isn't mine :(....three cheers for USB and wireless because I remember daisychaining all of those SCSI plugs from scanner, to zip, to printer, to the computer. ugh!

When we went to purchase it I dated myself and mentioned Softwindows..the place was mobbed with people in the iPOD section..and a billion children playing games with their parents yelling behind them... I remember playing with DOS and never getting off the ground with Flight Simulator in the 80's.

what engadget has to say
what macworld has to say

What I have to look forward to in the upcoming month..eep Oh no a Pageflex upgrade!..this can be good news or bad..the only thing I would add at this point is the ability to have a larger pasteboard area because the scrolling can make you go batty.

Gawker never lets me down for funny captions.. especially at a gallery opening.

Things that happened today:
• Random person said hello
• Went to try a sandwich but the cashier said they were out of those
• An older gentleman asked me if I liked the chinese food dumplings
• An old man with ear muffs crossing the road but stopping on a major highway to pick up a piece of paper..I thought he was a soon to be dead man.
• I watched an old guy with a mullet and red lipstick sampling Red Door perfume spraying it at his face in the makeup department

yay NJ! hahaha!

I missed hitting a goose in the fast lane the other day..every new year seems to bring a new bird in front of my vehicle..last year it was a pigeon.
