Drop Dead Sexy
January 22, 2005 @ 05:43 PMSo, I made it to the Apple Store at the Alderwood Mall these afternoon. My reasons for going were two-fold. Firstly, I wanted to pick up two software packages (iLife ‘05 and iWork ‘05). Secondly, I wanted to see – in person – the new Mac Mini and iPod shuffle. The iPod shuffle is sold out, of course, which is great news! But the real excitement of the night was getting to see the Mac Mini. It’s SEXY. And it’s small. And people were gobbling them up much like they were iPods. It’s heavier than I anticipated, but in hindsight it makes sense that it would be fairly heavy.
Anyway, I did that with my parents. It was fun to hang out with them for a couple hours! I don’t see them nearly as often as I would like to! Well, specifically my mother, and my sister for that matter. I work with my father, so I see him every day. And despite what one might think, it’s surprisingly fun working with him! After that I hung out here at my house with Jessica for a while. Watched television, mostly reruns of Frasier. Frasier’s become my favorite television show ever. Sadly, I didn’t start watching it until after the series had ended. But, such is life.
I had an interesting thought. If I manage to keep this blog somewhat active for the remainder of the year (11 more months), it might be fun to take all the blog postings, along with a selection of photos I’d taken over the course of the year, and put together a little book. Like a “Year in the Life of Brasten” book. With CafePress you can pretty much do your own books, so that might be kind of fun. Just for me, though I don’t see why I couldn’t make it available to anyone. It would likely be a boring read!
I promise I’ll write my post on blogs and the media. I have some interesting thoughts. I’ll do that tomorrow. Promise, promise, promise. It’s too late now, gotta get up early tomorrow. G’night, all!
