tidbits
Posted: September 3rd, 2009 | Author: jason | Filed under: life, technology | Tags: iPhone, life, technology | No Comments »Just last night Rosie was showing me some of her old toys, including the same Barbie video camera that showed up on Boing Boing Gadgets today. Ah, synchronicity.
***
Speaking of Rosie, she’s been trying to get me to eat healthier for a while now. To that end, can anyone recommend any good recipes (or places to find recipes) that will help me with that goal?
***
In three weeks I’ll finally be able to do with my iPhone what my RAZR could do four years ago, send and receive picture messages.
***
In case anyone hasn’t heard, Rosie and I will not be at Dragon*Con this year. She has to work most of the weekend and we’re both trying to save up money for the wedding. That being said, since it’s free (and right by her work) we will both be at the Decatur Book Festival some this weekend.
