Note to Cingular

I can't believe that after the complaints I had about my service, my phone, and my plan, that Abby and I stayed with cingular, thinking that a new plan and phone would solve the problems.

Well,.....
FUCK YOU CINGULAR. FUCK YOU IN YOUR STUPID ASSES!

My new cool phone has shity battery life, mediocre picture taking abilities, and confusing menus. It came with no good ringtones, as well as buttons conviently located to accidentally get you to login to the internet. But on the plus side, its smaller and its a flip phone. But I still don't get reception at work or at home. This is probably because of the building, but with all the technology in the world, how come my cell phone signal can't travel through walls???

another wedding weekend...

...and another golf tournament I can't play in. I have been on my game this year, and I keep missing tournaments, including 3 tournaments that I wanted to defend my title from the year before. It sucks to win, and then not be able to play the next year. And I am playing better than last year, so I'm missing out on all the wonderful prizes and beautiful people that come along with possessing such awesome powers.

Okay, so one tournament was a scramble, and my buddy Josh pretty much carried the team. And one was a family reunion with only like 12 golfers. But the other one was a 2-day moose lodge tournament, and I shot my best round (78) ever the first day and followed it with an okay round (85) the second day to win it. I just shot a 77 this year, and I am sure that I could have spanked all those old drunk guys a second year in a row.

But Katie's wedding will be hella-fun (the new title for this weekend) and its in Shelton, which means we can hopefully crash Amy's high school reunion party, or at least the after party. I better start practicing my drinking now...

And I finished Harry Potter. The book is so good that I really felt the need to punch one of the imaginary characters in the mouth. If anyone would have spoken bad about Harry Potter right after I finished the book (2:00 AM), it would have been on like donkey kong beeatttchhhh! If that's not good writing, then I don't know what is.

Harry Potter is almost as addictive as Ebay

The title pretty much speaks for itself, and in case you are too lazy to remember the title you just clicked on, let me do a little cut and pasting for you...

Harry Potter is almost as addictive as Ebay

The reason being that I finished half the book in one day (with a few chapters on saturday, but whos counting...) If I wasn't busy at work, I probably would have stayed home sick to finish it.

And I continue to look for a few books I need (I mean want) to finish off the extensive book collection that I have been working on since college and before. People think I have a lot of movies (which is true cause that collection is well over 700), but its nothing compared to the 1000+ books I now have. Especially considering I am still looking for 100 or so odds and ends to finish collections of my favorite authors, and its going to take a while because I am cheap. So ebay is the devil. Which leads me to a favorite quote I read on gamespot.

Remember: you're not a pack rat, you're an archivist.
