Motivational Sunday (on Monday) - Motivation

Hey there. I know, I know... I'm a day late on this but in my defense, I forgot. Today's poster is brought to you by the term Motivation itself. I'm sure that we've all thought it, and I'm sure some of us have even said it, but by looking at the below poster, we can all conclude that one point in our lives, it rang true. Later.

The Perfect Chore for Football Sunday

Hey there. The perfect chore for football Sunday is laundry! Think about it men. You sit on a couch, watch TV while folding clothes. It's perfect! I've been doing it since the start of football season and I must say that I don't have a problem doing it. I have noticed that it frustrates me when it's done at any other time, but I guess that because football is on, I can yell at the TV and take out some of that aggression. lol Later.

At the hospital.My little cousin looks great and very happy.The docs are amazed at her recovery. From what im being told she may be able to go home any day now.

An Update on My Little Cousin with Meningitis

Hey there. As I mentioned before, my little cousin has been battling meningitis. It's been a tough ordeal for the family since it's taken a huge toll my little cousin as well as our family. It's tough to see a 5 year old, strapped to her bed, with feeding and breathing tubes coming out of her, all while being heavily sedated. Well, I'm happy to say that she's doing a lot better.

We were worried that the sickness did not affect her brain too much. I don't remember if it is viral or bacteria but the sickness did cause some speech loss, but my lil cousin is smiling, walking, playing, and doing what little girls should be allowed to do. Albeit, in the hospital, but it's better than being drugged up or strapped down to your bed due to involuntary body movements. The doctors have mentioned that she may be allowed to go home very soon. She's still there for some observation and the speech loss is something that she can regain with some therapy. We're hoping for her to be released by her birthday later this month, or at least for Thanksgiving. If all turns out well, our family will have something special to be thankful of this year. Later!

Pathos

I sit here in wonder
In awe and disgrace
Of terms and my trials
That I cannot embrace

My life has passed by
It burned up in flames
All faces and characters
Lived on with no names

No sense of my pride
All down the drain
No wine and no blood
Will flow through these veins

As god as my witness
And cherubs as jury
My days will come pass
I'll full their fury

A life has been wasted
Time has ticked by
Remorse and disdain
I won't fly to the sky

I sit here and wonder
Sullen in rain
As minutes turn to hours
I live on with this pain.

The T-Mobile Dash Phone is Getting on my Nerves

Hey there. I am officially looking for a new phone. I've had the "T-Mo Dash" for some time now and I must say that it has served me well. I don't need much flare. Just something that can get my Emails while I check out ESPN or Cracked.com. It was horrible at taking video and you can forget about any flash applications. But you know what? It was alright. I didn't need those things, but now... the phone is not even doing the simple functions anymore. I can't make calls, the phone resets by itself, I love text messages, and it's constantly freezing on my when I go online. It's extremely frustrating and it's time to for this phone to go.

I got my wife a G1 one too long ago and I must admit that I was impressed by it. It has flash, the browsing is great, and I like the fact that you have a wide array of applications that you can download. The problem that I have is that YOU MUST get the internet plan in order to get full use of the phone. I refuse to do it. I'm running on an unlimited data plan with the Dash and it's served me well since I am able to text, Email, and surf all I want for something like $5 a month. The internet plan alone is somewhere around $20 a month. I already subscribe to it because it's a must have for my wife but I don't feel it's right for a company to deck us for another $20 to have the same service on a second phone. I don't think it's worth it.
So while my phone is on it's last legs, I feel that I'm in between a rock and a hard place. I don't want to pay more to use a newer phone, but I need to get a new phone because this one is ready to be smashed up against a wall. Maybe I'll call T Mobile and complain about it. If I'm lucky, I may be able to get a discount on the phone AND get them to reduce the price of the plan. Wish me luck! Later.
