7 years and still going strong...almost. My cell phone's flip broke on Friday the 13th, after just over 7 years of usage and 28,902 total talk minutes. I went to Sprint today and got the flip replaced so we're still seeing how long the phone will last. Say what you will about Motorola phones; at least back in 2000 they made them well.  10:57:33 PM

Once again my birthday is quickly approaching. I'll be in Chicago over Thanksgiving weekend for the usual combined Thanksgiving/birthday festivities. If you'll also be around, drop me an email.  12:04:51 AM

I usually think of Amazon.com as having a great user interface. But sometimes they outsmart themselves. I sold a book through their website, so I needed to enter my checking account information so I could get paid. Now, I do all my banking online, so I don't have checks. They cost money, and I'd never use them, so no checks. Occasionally I have to deal with direct deposit issues ("attach a voided check to form" nonsense), but just providing the bank routing and account numbers is sufficient. But now we have the Amazon.com website, which demands that you enter in a check number, as well as the entire bottom line of numbers off a check. Whoops. I managed to fake it; I conjured up a check #1 and entered in the numbers that would hypothetically be on it. And sent them email pointing out the problem; we'll see what kind of response I get.  8:44:03 PM

My amaryllis bulb is blooming. Now working on some other plants to add some color to the apartment.  8:53:40 PM

My 25th birthday is approaching. I'm currently seeking suggestions on what to do in Chicago to celebrate.  9:18:51 PM
