This is my gift. It is my curse.

So I just cracked open _Business Communications Today_ for my Business Writing class. I've got three chapters of this bad boy to read this week. It's a surprisingly easy read so far, but guess what? In the very first chapter there's a typo! So I was a jerk and emailed the publisher (they do include their email address to send comments) with the error. Seriously, a textbook? For a writing course? Can I please just travel the world with a giant red Sharpie and correct every single thing I see? Please?

This kid cracks me up

Introducing Pinky!

My new laptop arrived today! I decided to be super creative and call her Pinky, since she is pink. And so far, she's wonderful. I was worried that I wouldn't like the feel of the keyboard and/or touchpad, but they're great. Yea yea yea! Now I can finally catch up on a billion and one different projects. The only sad thing was that I intended to get Pinky a LeSportSac sleeve, but she's too big. So the search for a cute sleeve begins. This photo isn't actually Pinky; I grabbed it off of Dell's website.

Awesomeness

So when I ordered the new laptop, I went nuts and also ordered a GPS and a new camera. The GPS arrived yesterday and it's great. But what's even greater is

Yes, my GPS will now talk to me as Mr. T. Mr. T., fools!

A friend of mine just launched a really cool t-shirt search engine site. You go there and search for a color or subject matter and it shows you tons of t-shirts from all different websites. Check it out at teenormous.com. And tell all your friends. And their friends, too.
