Long Overdue

Well,

its been more than a week since i posted.  Well, Noa’s mother is back safe in Amsterdam, and well, we had an exciting week and a half here with her.  i did end up watching the 4 harry potter movies at home, so that we could all go see the new HP movie on mon night together.

not much to report on, though, other than the fact that im picking up our ferret cage today, and by next weekend we should have our 2 ferrets.  it seems that everything is on track for them to finally be shipped to us.  ive avoided posting on this since its been up in the air for a while now, but it seems were all set now.

not sure what the plans are for the weekend yet, but some beach plans are in the works, if the sun holds out.

iphone?

well,

i got to touch my first iphone, and check it out yesterday. and ive gotta say, its really really cool. of course, i didn’t doubt that it wasnt cool, but its nice to actually get your hands on it and see for yourself.

anyways, it was pretty amazing. i was in this mall in seattle in the apple store, and people would just walk in, pick up the phone, try it out, and say, ohh, wow. can you ever think back about saying ohh wow, about any sort of cell phone? i guess i thought it with my blackberry pearl, but that because i was using a 4 year old phone before.

even noa and her mom were impressed when i switched it to its side view, and zoomed in and out of pictures. i cant wait now till it comes to canada.

anyways, that was pretty much the highlight of my day yesterday.

Are we having fun yet?…. yeah… not so much.

Well.

i had repaired my model and was excited to go flying yesterday after the wind calmed down in the evening. i thought my form would be better, and i would actually manage to get some nice flights in.

well. its not so easy flinging this sucker up. wait, let me rephrase that. its easy flinging it up. its the getting it to fly, after the fling, that i cant seem to figure out.
