HAPPY BIRTHDAY, HERMERT!!
Pearl girl
July 3rd, 2008 estheraRecently, I upgraded my mobile phone to a Blackberry Pearl in the Titanium color. Here’s what it looks like:
So here’s my question: Blackberry Pearl or Apple iPhone? I just got this phone last weekend and have 30 days to decide if I want to keep it or return it and get a new iPhone - 3Gs release July 11.
I did a few searches online about which phone is better and both seem fairly comparable. I suppose it’s all dependent on what one is looking for in a mobile phone. I did find a lot of places that compared both and crazy people that get all wound up and angry talking/defending whatever phone. iPhone users calling Blackberry users and their phones stupid and vice versa. Holy crap. That’s not helpful at all. Which made me think - why are people so fucking crazy? And will owning either phone make ME crazy? I hope not. It just seems funny to me. ‘Blackberries are stupid!’ was one of the comments and all I could think was - Getting so riled up about it and posting that someone is stupid makes you look stupid.
So anyway, I’m still indecisive about it. On one hand, I could stick with the Blackberry Pearl and be happy. It’s small and pretty and fits nicely in my hand. I definitely like it more than I like my Motorola Razr. The little scroll ball is fun to play with and touch. So far (it’s been a week) it’s been great. It does what I need it to do and I don’t have to pay the extra $30 a month for the data plan if I don’t want to. I could be a responsible adult and not spend money on something I don’t really need. I didn’t have the data plan before and I was happy, why should I start spending more money? I’m paying off a house for chrissakes.
On the other hand, I’ve longed for an iPhone. My dad recently got one and I helped him set it up and I played, played, played my little heart out on it: Taking photos - zooming in and out, turning them horizontal and vertical and back again on the beautiful, crisp screen, customizing the settings, listening the the ringtones, such a beautiful interface. BUT, what I’ve heard/read a lot about the iPhone online is true for me too. It’s a little difficult to type things with the touch screen and the tiny buttons. It is also a rather large phone for my tiny hands (I have freakishly small hands). AND, I HAVE TO pay the $30 extra a month. It doesn’t seem like a lot extra a month, but when your phone bill is already almost $100 a month and you’re paying off a house and other things you never had to pay for before the house it’s excessive. Especially for something you were doing so fine without for so long.
I’m talking myself out of it and doing a fairly good job. But still…I don’t feel like I’m at a final decision. I still very much long for a shiny new gadget. I take after my father who owns more ipods, digital cameras, and other electronic gadgets than anyone I know.
I have until July 29th to decide. Does anyone have any thoughts? And don’t be lazy about posting. This will help me out.
Light as a feather
June 30th, 2008 estheraI just purged my Netflix queue of 25 movies. There’s something satisfying and empowering in doing that.
Current count: 94
My next goal: to get my queue under 75.

Bros before Hoes
June 29th, 2008 estheraI was recently afraid of posting here because I was in the process of moving my website from one host to another. I backed up my wordpress database and didn’t want to repeat the process as if it were such a difficult task - it’s a few clicks. Boy, have I gotten lazy.
Anyway, tonight I’m going to meet with my brothers - A, D, and C. C is coming in from Chicago. At first I thought he was visiting us and staying for a time. Turns out - he’s not. I’m a little bummed but it’s ok. The time we do have will be nice. I’m bringing pizza over. I want to take pictures. I wish my sister, B, was here.
This weekend is feeling really short. I brought some work home with me. It makes me relax a little bit to do work at home. I don’t know why this is. Maybe it’s because I stress less because I’m getting things done so I won’t run out of time. I don’t know when I became so slothy.
I don’t know why I titled this post what I did.
