Maybe I should start a "non-picture-day jar" kind of like a swear jar. I have to contribute money every time I forget to take a picture.

So...today was my first day off since Thanksgiving. And I really wanted to relax, lay on the couch all day and watch Christmas movies. That plan was thwarted when Comcast knocked on my door telling me that some internet signals were getting crossed in the area and they wanted to replace my old cables. Fine. Nothing like 2 men invading my house unannounced. I was indifferent to the whole idea. We were having no problems with our cable or the internet. Question 1: Can you come back when my husband is home from work because I'm not letting random dudes come in my house while I'm alone? Question 2: Am I getting charged for anything? Yes and No. Whatever. Go to work then. Not that any of that information has anything to do with my picture today. Except for the old white cable that you can see on the TV stand. But the real star of the picture is my Duke! (Who was none too happy to have the random dudes in the house.)

I expressed my confusion about recycling on facebook already. So I'm sure that the only two people who read my blog have already seen this. But, do we or do we not recycle frozen food boxes?

My, how the year has passed by so quickly. Here it is December already. Today we had our first real snowfall of the year. It was quite windy and chilly this morning. It was a looooooong walk from my car to the building at work at 7am. I'm not ready for his. Brushing off snow, scraping my windshield, starting my car early to warm it up. Let's hope it's a short, mild winter. For once.

I've been so busy at work and trying to catch up on my sleep schedule, I didn't take a picture today. Boooo.

This was a test picture with my phone. To test the camera, test sending pics through text and email, and test uploading pics to facebook. Success on all accounts!

Oh.Em.Gee.

I got a new phone! I've seen commercials for the Samsung Galaxy S and I've wanted one ever since. They make it for different carriers, and for AT&T it's called the Captivate. It's part of the Android family. It's a full windows smart phone. I can do everything on it! It's even a Kindle! I downloaded a book onto it already! And it has a 5MP camera. The only con is that with all the functions it does, the battery life sucks. I have to charge it every night, where with my old phone, I could go 4-5 days before having to charge it. Now let me tell you the story of how I got it. FOR FREE! This is a $200 phone. And even though I was in love with it, I knew I'd never buy it, because let's face it...Who's gonna spend $200 on a phone. I could stay at a Disney hotel for 2 nights for that much. Well, tonight the Target Mobile guy (the guy who sells contract phones at Target) was walking around asking if Target team members wanted a free phone. I'm interested, tell me more. They wanted to make room for more inventory and needed to get rid of some phones. All I had to do was renew my contract. Well, I've been extremely happy with AT&T, so I had no problem with that. And since I already have a full data package, the smart phone data package is only gonna cost me $5 more a month. Well, sign me up! Talk about being at the right place at the right time. Especially since I wasn't scheduled to close that night. The other GSA called in because of a family emergency and I came in to close when I should have been a mid shift that day. Everything happens for a reason, right?
