Look, I'm not one to judge...no, wait, I do judge, but I'm also a hypocrite because I'm trying to use Twitter more for absolutely no reason. I just think you should know what I'm doing and you should know it often. It's not like I'm snapping photos of every damn thing in front of me and posting it on Facebook. Jesus, people. You know who you are.

Well, not until I get a smartphone, anyway. I have my beady eyes on the Nexus One (i.e., Google Phone), but damn Google and/or T-Mobile for making it impossible for Family plan customers to upgrade. There's actually a work-around that I found on the interwebs, but I don't like work-arounds very much. I like things handed to me on a silver platter.

...which brings me to my point! Just kidding, I don't have a point to this. I'm just bored because I set my laptop ac adapter on fire this morning so I can't use it to build a new website that currently top-secret but will soon be something I can't stop talking about. How exactly am I posting this pointless post, then? It's the craziest thing: I don't know.

This will be my 3rd ac adapter for the same laptop, although only the first that I've destroyed by flame. Oh yeah, I was talking about the Nexus One and how much I want it. I never got into the iPhone and I don't even use my current dumb phone all that much. But I can only charge it in the car nowadays and the battery doesn't hold its juice so I need a new one. Why not get the newest new one there is?

I actually have other superficial reasons for wanting it, including the built-in GPS app. Even though my inner compass is freaking amazing and always spot-on, it doesn't come with an updated map so this GPS unit would be handy for traveling. I've also been in the market for a small pocket camera and this would fit the bill. And that's all the reasons I have. I'll get it soon when Google comes to its senses and actually wants to sell the phone to more than a few thousand people instead of just telling themselves how great they are.
