Recently, due to the Colbert / Fallon back and forth raising money for donors choose, a donation site that Colbert happens to be a member of the Board of Directors, I checked it out last night and...found myself suddenly addicted to helping finish projects for these classrooms. I don't know what it is, but it feels addicting to me, and I like it. If any of you are in a giving mood, please consider this site. You can check out if there are any sites in your area that need donating, and there are a variety of other ways to donate.

Goddamn I need to blog more.
I do, really. Life, such as it is, has been hectic recently and as such I've been putting things off, such as blogging. My bad!
Anyways...so I'm getting a new computer. It's an HP. Was considering Dell but...honestly. Dell didn't even have the i7 chipset I wanted in the computer I was looking at, and their financing is bullshit. Could I have just said "fuck it, Ima build it myself?" Probably, and it would have been ridiculously fun to do so (While I have done some minor customizations to my computers in the past, I have yet to build one) but it also, I suspect, would have been wicked time consuming, and as I have two jobs and am going to school, this isn't even remotely a possibility.
The jobs are good, so far. Working in the mental health field is pretty rewarding, and since I like helping others, it's a given that I would enjoy my job. Are there difficult days at times? Naturally, but it's a good job and one that makes me happy. My other job (retail)...meh. Mindnumbingly boring, but it serves its' purpose.
I hope all of you out there are having a good St. Patrick's Day. :)

It's Official - Verizon's Getting the iPhone
Specifically, the iPhone 4, which will retail between 199-299 depending on GB (16 and 32 respectively) for customers with returning contracts, or 599-699 if you buy it without finishing your current contract. Upside: Verizon customers FINALLY get their hands on an iPhone; downside: It won't be utilizing their LTE network, apparently because utilizing the fastest network would have resulted in design changes.

So...who's going to run out in February and get one?

New Years Resolutions
We all have them, even if you can't admit it to yourself. Here are some of mine.
1) To get in better shape. Starting later on this morning, gotta hit the treadmill or (if it's going to get above 45 degrees *fingers crossed!*) maybe go for a jog outside.
2) To be in NYC for New Year's 2012. Already got a list going of people who want to go, lol.
3) To get my MA and head back to MA. Yup.
4) To be a better person in general, and to live my life to the highest standards I have; honor, justice and truthiness for all.
5) To go to a LIVE taping of the Colbert Report or The Daily Show *sigh... :) *
What are some of yours? Don't be shy...share. :)
