wack this, wack that

speakerphones are wack. they are all about the speaker, and not about the hearer. they are selfish. talking on a speaker phone is like talking on a walkie-talkie - only one person can talk at a time. and, it's just so freakin' hard to hear the other person. wack. wackity-wack-wack. you know what would be cool - if you could have multiple devices on one mobile number. i am sure it's more diff to txt on an iphone than on a reg phone. would be nice to have both, but not have to have 2 numbers.

at walmart tonight, saw a guy purchasing one of those boards for displaying a science project. boy - glad that phase of life is over! late night homework purchases are wack.

if you were purchasing a nice ink pen, and it cost $15, and the guy selling it to you told you that you could walk 4 blocks and purchase the exact same ink pen for $7, would you make the walk? if you were purchasing a suit, and it cost $200, and the guy selling it to you told you that you could walk 4 blocks and purchase the exact same suit for $193, would you make that walk? $7 is $7, but most folks would be more willing to walk 4 blocks to get something for 1/2 price than to get just a small amount discount. wack? not wack?

here is what i would really like to have right now - some of those hard-shell marshmallow pastel-coloured easter eggs. there is no other candy made like them all year long. no hard-shell marshmallow christmas trees, or pumpkins, or 4th of july flags, or any of that. just easter eggs. fascinating.

went to the bookstore tonight to find a gift for my old man's mom - the coal miner's daughter, loretta lynn - and ended up with some books for me. d'oh! what's really wack about that is that i purchased books, and i work... in a coal mine!! haha!! get it??

gotta go reset my alarm clock. somehow, i got the clock part set backwards for am/pm. this alarm clock is like... uh... old. like, almost 30. so, it does some odd things, and you have to be gentle with it. like, when you go to set the alarm for a different time, sometimes the clock will reset along with alarm, and so you have to reset the clock after resetting the alarm. sort of wack, but we shall speak kindly of it b/c it has been there thru the years. the first morning that i used it, the song that was playing was dan fogelberg's "longer", and my thought was - welcome to the world of modern music. i thought the alarm clock radio was going to be my ticket to coolness - that if i knew some music, i could fit in with the rest of the kids. haha! yeah. i was kinda wack.
