Leave a message at the tone

So…I’ve once again gone on twitter strike. This time because I want to announce with my 10kth ( Ten-Thousandth ) tweet that I’ve reached 50k for NaNoWriMo.

But I’ve also lost my cell phone. It’s somewhere around the commune or Pat or something. I’m sure. But it’s most definitely not with me and it’s completely dead.

This means that not only can I not tweet avidly, but I also can’t text anyone.

So…

What I would love for you to do is, if you know my number ( which most of you do that are reading this bloggit ), call me and leave me a voice message so, when I find my phone, I have messages of love. Please? My voicemail’s really cool ( It’s me, singing ) and I love having messages.

So…yeah. Text me or leave me a voicemail ( or both! ) and I’ll love you forever. I’ll even do a “BLOG OF LOVES!!!” listing those people that left me love =)

My NaNoWriMo novel is called Pitter-Pat. ( The period is actually part of the title. ) and it’s about a girl named Skye. It’s going to be totally awesome when it’s done. I’m super, super excited. =D

And it counts for one of the things to do ( write a book and get it published. )

Incidentally, I finished the “Make a One Minute Movie” one yesterday but it didn’t work when I uploaded it to youtube because WMG owns the music I used ( Coming Clean by Green Day ) so it got stripped. I’m going to try and fix it but I don’t know if it’ll work…If it doesn’t I’ll figure something out so you can see it =D

Apps

So Guppie let me download an app onto his phone that lets me blog without having to use the site. This means that I can actually see and use all of the categories and that I can easily post from pretty much anywhere. Thing is, it hasn’t been working for the past little while because of some unknown reason. Well, I learned the reason this morning: I was pushing the wron button. :/

Basically, in an iPhone, depending on where you click on various buttons, different things happen. In this case I just happened to keep entering the settings mode and failing miserably to enter normal blog mode.

Dru = epic fail. Yes, I know

So now, I can once again easily blog from my boyfriend’s phone. The world, due in large part to Guppie’s willingness -upon meeting me – to surrender his phone to me completely, is once again amazingly good. And I can blog about it with the greatest of ease, once again

Mobile Network Companies

URGH!! rhrbosb^&$*()!$*!)!! They are soo annoying.

I’m not going to mention which Company it is, cause i’m nice like that.

I upgraded my phone and was told that everything would be up and running within 24 houes.

That was a LIE!

I got a text saying that I was being charged £50.61 for internet usage O_O HOW?! I have unlimited internet.

After a lengthy angry phone call, I was told that I could not use the internet on my phone until 22nd September.

FFS, if I had waited until the 5th instead of upgrading then I would have everything working fine. But no, this upgrading thing is meant to make things easier and better… That’s complete BULL!

I got this phone to use the internet on it while I was away.. and I can’t even use it. I mean, I love the phone, but what’s the point if i can’t even use it.

SOO ANGRY NOW!

Baked Potato

I’m at work – of course – and I just finished my lunch.

For lunch I ate a baked potato.

And…well, the microwave ( being all fancy ) has a baked potato button. So I clicked it. But I didn’t realise that the system of buttons was set up like this:

|option|
|option|
|option|
|button|
|option|
|option|
|button|
|option|
|option|
|option|
|button|

But thought it was set up so the button on top corresponded with the options below it. Like this:

|button|
|option|
|option|
|option|
|button|
|option|
|option|

So I clicked the wrong button, and got thoroughly confused when it asked how many ounces my as-yet-unbaked potato weighed. So I cleared everything out and announced to Jenny – a co-worker – that “I’ll just put it in for four and a half minutes and see what happens” with an air of not being able to figure out the microwave buttons and really just wanting to eat my dumb potato.

Then, in a wave of inspiration and understanding, I figured out that the buttons go in the opposite direction and – with much excitement – shouted “Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait!! I get it!” and happily punched in the combination of keys to bake my potato perfectly.

Any guesses on what the time readout was when I got it set right?

4:30.

>.<

 

 

"Yeah, that was a really lame story"
'You know what?! It was HILARIOUS at the time.'
"It may have been. That doesn't mean you have to blog about it."
'Well, I used to blog about nothing all the time and people read it. Now I blog about stuff almost never. Which is better?!'
"I, well… That doesn't even really make sense."
'Probably…I've been reading xkcd too much…'

Go read xkcd.

[ I tag insomnimaniacal antics because I'm ridiculously tired. =D ]

Nokkie’s Heartbeat

So, you may or may not know that my phone’s name is Nokkie. Now you know.

I recently ( and after quite a bit of phone-grown hassle ) upgraded my phone from a Nokia 5300 to a 5610. I have the white and black model, which looks something like this:

Well, actually, it looks exactly like that… But anyway…

I love my new phone immensely. I love the 3.2 megapixel camera. I love that the videos are actually fairly good quality. I love that it doesn’t crash all the time and that I don’t have to keep fewer than 800 txt messages to keep it running.

In fact, the only thing I don’t really like is that the screen blacks out occasionally for no reason and for a very short period of time. That worries me. It bodes ill of the future. But, whatever.

My very favoritest feature is Nokkie’s heartbeat.

There are two little lights under the screen of my phone that flash at a regular 15 or 20s interval ( I forget which just now ). When I listen to music, it increases half speed. And when I have a txt message, it blinks twice every 10 or so seconds. It’s an immense comfort when I’m sad and falling asleep because I feel like I have a little pet sleeping with me. Obviously, the cat does this if she’s around.

But really, Nokkie’s heartbeat was the most ingenious thing ever! And I feel a rush of fondness every time I see it. =)

And that, in short, is my new phone. And why I love it so much. <3

I'm drinking some really good tea right now. I've gone back to my good old PG Tips and it's so much better than that stupid cheap stuff in the hotels.

A-Z = random letter because I forgot where I was at…

W – Weezer! They're only super epic. =) Listen to surf wax america. That song rocks.

Twitter

So, I posted 35 tweets in the time it took me to run the stupid update on my computadora that didn’t work anyways.

And I discovered that there’s an hourly limit of tweets. And that it is, in fact, 35. Or something like that. Because I can’t twitter now. And I feel very odd.

But, I determined that the problem was not Window Movie Maker ( apologies Windows for dissing you hardcore ) but the files I was trying to save. So I changed their format and hopefully this will work better. Hopefully.

But probably not.

My Brother’s iPod

Yeah, so my little brother’s iPod got locked and no one could figure out how to fix it.

So it sat in my living room for a year.

Two days ago I got fed up and brought it in and fixed it in about three seconds ( literally ). So, once again, we see how awesome I am. And humble too!

lol, so it’s fixed.

Electro-tip of the day: If your iPod gets locked and you can’t remember the combination, connect it to a computer. That will fix it.
