B and I got into a discussion about our phones last night. While we both love our Notes overall, there are certain little things that piss us both off. Mostly it has to do with the availability of aftermarket cases. They all suck balls. Anything remotely fun or cute is on the iPhone and not on the Note. Both of us want Disney cases but the only ones are these bad knockoff Chinese bullshit ones. In the park it's all iPhone. Buttholes. But we both agree there's no reason to upgrade or change our phones. Nor is there anything on the market that excites either of us. The Note 4? Meh. Not really any different. The S6 Edge? REAL meh as the whole edge thing is stupid for people like us. We turned off all the notifications that that would show you anyway. Plus I don't do social media crap on my phone which again, the whole point of the edge. That's not to say I haven't looked at the i{Phone 6 Plus. I just don't get excited about it. Yes, it would be nice to have all my devices be from the same vendor for control and compatibility but, whatever. Not losing any sleep on that. The one nice thing about the Note is I don't have to have a proprietary cable. ANY USB cable will charge it. That's a small thing until you find yourself in Ohio and realize you forget everything but one cable. Anyway, no plans to change or do anything, we just were talking about it last night. Speaking of being in Ohio, I may be off there June 8th. Back to one place I have been before. A college out there. Gorgeous place in the country. I actually won't mind it. It may be the 8th, it may be the end of the month. We shall see. Either way, one more week on the road and that's a good balance. Home for a few, back out for one. I can handle that. Plus it's a nice place. Not terribly exciting, but nice.
Got through day two of my class. Tension got a little high in the afternoon because one of the students was not paying attention and got way lost and then was being a fucking idiot. I kept my cool, but even B could here the stress in my voice. This person was just being dumb. Out of the three, I have one I can see being VERY successful at this and two who probably should only do it in emergencies.
After class we went to look in the fridge to see what we had for dinner and realized the answer was nothing. Off to the grocery store for the first time in almost two weeks. We loaded up. $200 for about 3-4 weeks of groceries. Not bad. I mentioned to B that I think back to 3 or 4 years ago and how I would spend that on one night of booze and food and then throw it all up. Remember? No? Just go back and read 2009 or 2010 entries. I am sure you can find at least a dozen where I am bitching about spending way too much money and making too many bad decisions. Ah, how I have finally grown. I am still an idiot, but at least I haven't puked in a long time.
In other news, I won an eBay auction yesterday. A pin I have been wanting. $8. Whoo. Look at me. But it completes a collection I have been working on for years. Small victories.
Last day of class, then I can take a break. Four day weekend essentially. Going to be having a garage sale and packing, but it will be worth it.
