Ooh, nice dress. What's the occasion?I also got a dress recently, with a gift card I got from work for Christmas. It was on sale and I still have moneys left on my gift card. The dress was red with white polkadots, just over the knee, short sleeves, doesn't make me look pregnant. It's super cute! I also acquired 5m worth of ribbon damn expensive hobby!

Picked it up at Chapters yesterday. Sci-Fi mag fyi. I'd like to get a sub for one of the big three (Analog, Asimov's, F&SF), but subscriptions in Canada are a bitch and half.

hello there the world of PEEL! I'll keep this one short as it be kinda hard to type on a touchscreen keyboard like the one on this stupidly expensive iPod touch.The problem is it is so damned awesome I think it will eventually pay for itself. Great quality screen and this keyboard is pretty sweet for what it is. Replacement for my Creative Zen Xtra which died on New Year's Day... A whopping £256, with staff discount bringing that down 10%, decided it was worth spending some of the Xmas overtime pay. [This message has been edited by aslate (edited 02-03-2008).]

They're great. Everyone in my household, besides me, owns one and I have to stop myself from just going out and buying one about once a week.If only they'd hurry up and release the fucking iPhone here, I wouldn't have this problem.

Two of my friends own the delicious iPod touch, also. It is so, so pretty.I'm also holding out for the iPhone, which I figure I can splurge on as I haven't bought a new phone since like 2003. (Go, original Nokia camera phone! Work as you always have!) All I have to do is wait another five or so years until it is released here. (One of my friends cited owning an iPhone as a big motivator for moving to London. He is there now.) Anyway, what was I here for? Oh. Too many dollars on various alcholic beverages yesterday, because every drink at the BDO is approximately 2 million dollars. Lousy extortionate festival.

Yeah, but blank cassettes are totally ironic. The cost to your ego is much lower.

New bike tires (because my old ones had 3 patches): $70USA Cycling racing license: $60 Half-Life Orange Box: $50 Upcoming expenses may include a new mp3 player, because mine got messed up and can only hold two songs now. I probably won't, though, two songs is really all I listen to at a time anyway.

Screw the iPhone, that is so last June, how about the LG "Viewty" KU990 (a challenger appears!) It has 3 more megajiggawattpixels than the iPhone and it can record in 120fps (why would you ever need that you say? Why to make slow motion movies of pigeons of course!)  Although I may have to rob a small bank to get one, my SE K750 is on it's last legs, especially the joystick, which only navigates in 3 directions.

The sort of person who cares about 120fps recording and ogg playback and linux compatibility is exactly the sort of person who shouldn't be allowed to be seen with Apple products in the first place.

You should have seen my buddy Luke on Saturday when we got issued our new bunker gear ... I'd never seen his face brighten up so much. Bought a handful of 50/50 tickets this weekend at hockey games, and bought a lotto ticket on Saturday. Let's see how spectacularly I lose! Airline tickets the other day, and arranged a rental car yesterday. This background check had better not be something that they could have just mailed me ...
