A year ago, Kurt gave me a smartphone for my birthday. I started with Android 1.6 but a few months into owning it I upgraded to 2.1 -- and that was the end of the upgrades. The battery life on my old phone sucked, and it just was so super slow. What's the point of having a smartphone if you have to wait thirty seconds or more just to pull up a text message?!

This week I finally got tired of all the issues and problems and the babying I was doing with my old phone. I couldn't hardly use it out in town because the battery was so crappy! So I bit the bullet and got myself an HTC Evo. This piece of equipment is truly beautiful. It works, quickly and easily and elegantly. I open an app, and it's there. I switch to something else, and it's there. No more waiting! It just WORKS. This is probably what it felt like when Apple folks upgraded to an iPhone 4. All I can say is that I am in LOVE.

LOVE LOVE LOVE. Yay Android.

photos I came across in the wrong section and instead of putting them into the correct section I decided to use them for today's prompt (it only took a minute or two to find them) The journaling is on a pull out tag attached to the arrow on the bottom right.

Mated 15 for the art show. Only 100 left. yay.

Bathroom Cat is watching you, er,... nevermind. I have been told that there is a reason this pink cat is in our bathroom. Apparently it's full of bubble bath. I suppose it can stay for now. :p

This is most of the equipment I am now packing up for my big shoot with WSB-TV that starts tomorrow. In the process of making an inventory of all my stuff!

Day 21 of 365 (~ take 3)

My bi-weekly splurging on shellac nails has come to an end. It was fun while it lasted, but so not necessary when I'm quite capable of making my nails fancy all on my own. Today's choice? Russian Navy with just a touch a sparkle.

Was in Glasgow for a meeting first thing this morning. In the sleet and the cold, with the remnants of the Xmas decorations still hanging, George Square looked pretty forlorn.

I'm playing catch up here as we have just got back from our holiday, a cruise in the Caribbean.

Our 1st day image is from the Martini cocktail Ice bar - this was to be our regular evening venue! The bar was covered in ice, the guys behind the bar were very nice, amusing and entertaining nutters and the measures were very generous - happy husband and friends! I'm tee total and was also very happy as barman made me a very nice alcohol free drink and as he was the only one who knew how to make it we nicknamed it a 'heknows'!!

Tohya - What is this.

Me - It is a chart for the different cycles of the moon for this year.

Tohya - Ahhh, why do you need this?

Me - The moon cycles are important with Paganism and influence when certain spells are cast.

Babies are so full of energy! Chance enjoying his new ball pit, it was electric!

The photo was monotone reds...and softly focused. It was a challenging photo to work with. But once I got started it was so enjoyable. I left the threads hanging were they were to become part of the texture of the portrait.

He's a little on the thin side and kind of quiet. But a really cool guy.

01/21/12 - Love this restaurant! All the walls look like this, with paintings from the urban Italy. We went to this place on the occasion of my friends' birthday. And yes, "toalett" is Norwegian for the word "toilet". x

It is supposed to be a happy weekend here at Patras carnival. A weekend of joy, dance, parades, photos, drinks and so on. Weather though isn't with us. Heavy overcast and rain is in the forecast, and it reminded me of another day that was supposed to be happy but was totally grey... #day21 #365story #insta365 #absence #grey
