yup — it’s been a while since i’ve written here last… i’ve been writing some stuff for matters of grey lately. it’s nice to come back here and not have to use uppercase letters, type words like “cuz,” and heavily use ellipses…
so i come back with this — darth vader being a jerk
added world cup schedule calendar: it’s a custom google calendar i set up… just the countries that i’d be interested in watching
added last.fm badge to the footer with my other social networking icons. i think it’s a little better than pandora — you get unlimited skips and minimal ads (for now)… i really like their slideshow thing when music plays… it’s slick
it’s been a loooong couple of weeks for me… not only do i have a plateful at work, i got several projects for gorirra i gotta take care of.
i LOVE procrastinating… i actually wanted to write this post earlier in the week, but, well… you know how that goes?
java chip frappuccino, please?
so anyway, i wanted to work in “solitude” so i hit up a starbucks over by my place that doesn’t get much business. i get in and just as i thought… not many people in there and there was a big table for me to set up my laptop and other crap
i go to the baristas and ask about the wireless and apparently it’s not just for t-mobile hot spots or at&t users anymore! all i had to do was get a starbucks card and then register it… i’d then have 2 free hours of wifi there everyday.
i was looking at the card’s rewards and they’re pretty good… especially the free drink on your birthday.
after 5 stars (you get a “star” each time you pay with the card), you get to customize your drink with syrups, butterfingers, cheeseburgers, etc.
after 30 stars, you get a free drink after 15 stars
not bad… i’d really just like the free wireless angle of it — they had me at hello
so anyway, i was talking to the baristas there cuz they looked pretty bored and i mentioned foursquare and how i want to be the mayor of the place.
i swear they looked at me like i was a visitor from the future… “whaaaaat? fouurrsqqquareee?”
they mentioned that they got a letter about it, but they didn’t quite grasp it… so this means i shouldn’t be mayor of this particular one — they wouldn’t know what to do…
so i went to trivia at kelly’s pub with a bunch of friends and we effin’ won… we beat these other teams who frequent trivia night also… and they’re bastards too — they drink water and get one order of chips… we had to take ‘em out
* it should be noted that the other teams are old women… not even cougars… sheesh…
so yea… we won and of course, i showed some shitty sportsmanship but yelling, fist-pumping, and dancing a jig…
