Flying My Geek Flag

I have been so all-consumed with BlackBerry software, applications, graphic design and themes these days that I seem to have forgotten I even have a blog. I’ve joined a couple of online forums, and have been busy helping other forum users. Mostly with links to new operating systems, since posting them is a big no-no. I’ve always been a modder of Motorola and Nokia phones, so I’m quite new to this BlackBerry world. So far, me likey.

In addition the technical stuff, I have discovered ColorWare. While cruising around BB theme sites, I ran across NancyDrew BlackBerry Themes. (If you’re looking for themes for your BlackBerry, she’s a fucking genius.) She has a photo of her “PinkBerry” there, done by ColorWare, and I almost peed myself. She was even kind enough to answer some of my questions about it. I just don’t know how I’m going to live without my phone for the amount of time it will take them to paint it. I have discovered the crack of cell phones and I am addicted.

Moving on…

Saturday night at work was Saturday night at work. I was SO tired from having been there once already, early in the a.m., but I was actually let off about an hour early. Something that never happens on a weekend night. So, naturally, I had to take advantage.

I don’t know where I got the strength, but I met up with BFF and a few other girlfriends after work. I was still very tired, so I decided to mix my Tuaca with Red Bull. THAT handled my tired problem pretty efficiently. I remained awake and able to drink beer the rest of the night. A good idea at the time, but a bad idea on Sunday. Needless to say, I didn’t go anywhere yesterday. (I had the day off, thank God.)

I spent today (my usual day off) not doing all the shit I meant to do. Like laundry. Between my BlackBerry and my laptop, I’m shocked I managed to even feed myself.

I’m off to do more nerdy shit, then I’ll try to turn my brain down enough to sleep.

Peace, addiction and fun.

    You sure do have loads of fun, don’t ya. I’m totally envious and I still don’t know what a Tuaca is … LOL!

    OK, I don’t know what a Tuaca is, either, but I totally don’t care because I’m having way too much fun living vicariously through you.

    Nick - Tuaca is a FANTASTIC Italian liqueur. It’s sweet but strong. Evidently you can ask Angi. LOL And yes, I’m trying to squeeze as much fun into this life as I can. :-)

    Leigh - I’m so glad that I can be a source of entertainment for you! Too bad you weren’t there to see me fall down the other night. My friends found it most amusing. Ha ha

    Florida Girl In Sydney - You are gonna LOVE a “real” BlackBerry! I did think my Pearl was very cute though. I am just so much happier with a phone that does so much more. I’m excited for the day you get yours. :-)

    Angi - LOL! Isn’t it tasty?? YUM.

    Now I know why I didn’t eat dinner last night. At least you remembered to feed yourself.

    I’m doing a double movie tonight after work and I probably should have a drink myself.

    You make me want a crackberry. I’m too cheap.

    Thank you Drowsey! However, I know my nerdiness is down to my bone marrow. LOL

    Natural - I WISH I could be cheap. I can’t bear to think of how much money I’ve spent on cell phones over the years. It’s just sad. Hopefully my CrackBerry will cure me of my addiction for a while. So far, it’s my absolute favorite phone ever. So far…

    I, too, am a huge cell phone nut (I actually wrote a post on my blog a few days ago about every phone I’ve ever owned…lame, I know)
    I had a Treo but could never cash into the Blackberry craze
    Now I have a Sidekick and I’M IN LOOOVEE

    Hi Demiera! Thanks for visiting and commenting. I’ve had pretty much every phone known to man (most of them I got from other countries) but never got on the BB bandwagon either. I figured I’d give it a shot though and I loooove mine like you do your Sidekick. :-)
