*Drool*

By Chris | October 28, 2008

Since the demise of my Treo 755p, and the fact I am using my older Treo 650, I’ve sort of been on the lookout for a new phone. I think I have found it: BlackBerry Storm.

Blackberry Storm

It’s supposed to come out in November on Verizon. I’m excited. I don’t get excited over stupid phones. I will likely have to pay full price, since I am in the middle of my contract and won’t get those fancy deals. The price plan is comparative to the plan I have now. I’ve never had a BB before, but lots of friends and coworkers have them and love them.

Some Days Are Diamonds, Some Days Are Rocks

By Chris | October 20, 2008

Such a poignant song…. knowing who I do, this song is totally that person…and so…

Walls
Tom Petty

Some days are diamonds,
Some days are rocks.
Some doors are open,
Some roads are blocked.

Sundowns are golden,
Then fade away.
And if I never do nothin’,
I’ll get you back some day.

‘Cause you got a heart so big it could crush this town.
And I can’t hold out forever; even walls fall down.

And all ’round your island
There’s a barricade.
It keeps out the danger,
It holds in the pain.

And sometimes you’re happy,
Sometimes you cry.
Half of me is ocean,
Half of me is sky.

But you got a heart so big it could crush this town.
And I can’t hold out forever; even walls fall down.

Yes, they do.

Oh!

And some things are over,
Some things go on.
And part of me you carry,
Part of me is gone.

But you got a heart so big it could crush this town.
And I can’t hold out forever; even walls fall down.
Baby, you got a heart so big it could crush this town.
And I can’t hold out forever; even walls fall down.

Yeah, I guess they do.

Yes, they do,

They fall down.

High School Musical a la Starbucks Summerville

By Chris | October 19, 2008

I went to Starbucks in Summerville last night, sort of a weekly thing where Meegan and Jo and I enjoy coffee and each others’ company for a while and just catch up. It’s been something I’ve been a part of since Jamie and I broke up, so about three weeks going on four that I’ve been meeting them there about once a week, more often than not on a Saturday. I noticed that it seemed to be sort of gathering point fot the Summerville High School kiddies, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing, they always seemed to be sorta quiet, and for the sake of assuming that they’re legal (ahem, before you think ill thoughts, it’s 16 in SC, even though that’s a moral checkpoint…ew), some of them are not too bad on the eyes ;-) .

HSM Summerville Starbucks Version

HSM Summerville Starbucks Version

Last night it seemed there was a larger number than normal, and they all gathered outside…and much to our surprise, and almost to our chagrin, the one cute boy went and grabbed a guitar out of his car. And then another brought out a drum (bongos, I think?) and they started to play music. Okay, so this was a little strange…but then, I would find it weird that they do this at a Starbucks and not like, well, their house or something. They weren’t bad though…it was just bizarre. Jo and Meegan seemed equally surprised and though I didn’t ask I figure it’s safe to assume that it’s not happened when they’ve been there before.

Strange.

On an unrelated not, yet not something that doesn’t permeate my thoughts practically hourly (much to my difficulty) I’m trying to keep positive with all that’s been running through my head this weekend…so…good thoughts…good thoughts.

Thirty Days

By Chris | October 17, 2008

Thirty days. In the last thirty days a lot has changed. None of it for the better, in my opinion.  In the last 30 days I’ve lost someone in my life who was most important to me. I’m so annoyed at the last 30 days worth of shit I don’t even know what the fuck to write about. When the hell will something go right?

I wish ATP was open. I want to go shoot .40 cal holes in paper. Oh, wait, J and I were supposed to do that one day…another thing that’ll never happen.  Fuck it.
