Galaxy Nexus Watering Hole

Hey! :) I have been meaning to write you! :)

The desert is warming up. After a nice snow in December, we've had almost none since, not good for us - spells another drought. :(

How's by you?

Great weather here. 70's for the last week. I passed through Albuquerque in January, made me itch to move back. But then I got out of the dustbowl into Santa Fe and Red River, and the itch went away, lol.

Seriously, I miss NM some times. It's definitely got its charm.

I guess I must be ugly or something because women don't even socialize with me at work. But I am sure no one wants to hear me wine about that so...

Aww. Chin up, man. Maybe if Darth turns out to be a psycho or something, BB will agree to a date with you!

Right, BB?

I am spared the Apple obsession here, because A. we don't have an apple store within 100 miles, and 2. Tomorrow is St. Patrick's Day, the biggest holiday of the year in Savannah. Some estimates are we will have the biggest parade in the world this year, surpassing New York City. Of course this is just due to participant count, not float size or complexity... Plus 1 million people in town to get hung over on green beer and Irish Whiskey. Good Morning Everyone!

We have an area of the city that is turned into about a 6-8 city block party called Shamrock the Block. Bands, food, vendors, green beer, lots of "Irish Yoga". Between that, the VCU game and Elton John being in town tomorrow for a show, all within 1 mile of each other, I am dreading the ensuing traffic nightmare.

Ugh. Count yourself fortunate that you don't have to deal with the Taste of Chicago, Air and Water Show, or if you live where I do, 40 thousand people driving through your neighborhood every other afternoon for the Cubs game.

Crazy! I feel like I have done/learned so much about Android/Linux in these 3 months than I did in the previous 1.5yrs before I owned the Nexus!

Big thanks to AF, Mods, Guides, and Users like you who have helped me along the way!

Same goes for me (except that Linux part -I'm just not ready for that one yet!) lol!

Again, a big thank you from someone trying to learn a lot more about the device I dearly love! You guys are the best!

PARTY @ AntimonyER's next year! (um... How many can we fit in the house without going over fire code?)

I honestly didn't know that about Savannah!

Usually our biggest concern in Ohio is all the college kids partying (the worst are typically near me, University of Dayton anyone?) lol!

There's not enough money in the world. LOL I don't even live in the city I work in...I live in a tiny 8 square mile city 20 miles from where all this goes on, so at least I don't have to deal with it in my back yard. I'm a suburban girl. :D

Easy there, BB! I did say maybe, lol.

Besides, it might not be beneficial to you to suggest I'm a pimp, when you are the one I'm trying to hook up with someone!

lol

Hahaha! So you're like the big brother (who I think is actually younger) that is trying to hook up his sister and his friend. I get it. :D

Also, I was trying to hook you up with someone who feels as if they are unattractive. Poor guy. Although not everyone wants to be hooked up, I suppose, so I might have jumped the gun.

Sheesh. I'm 32!! I feel so old.

Please... I'll share a little secret with you: Not acting your age helps prevent you from feeling your age. I turned 42 last week, and I feel like I'm still 29. In fact, probably better than I did when I was 29.

You must take really good care of those! :p

Okay, well maybe not...I did wear a bra at 10, but I dare say...I've long since outgrown the ones I had when Han was born.

Hmm, my wife always complains I act like a teenager.

Me too. Not to sound like a girl, but I'm kind of disappointed that men nowadays seem to be bigger versions of children. Video games, comic book movies, imitating Homer Simpson and Peter Griffin for laughs. Don't get me wrong, I'm as much in that group as anyone else, but what the frak happened?

As long as the bigger versions understand some responsibility then its all good.

Yeah, I have my theories, but it's too political to get into here. Basically it comes down to society accepting this behavior, and in ways encouraging it. It's sad, but men aren't allowed to be MEN.
