New Phone, New Pics

Today went well. Testing ran smoothly, despite missing a few minor things. I was able to strategically avoid some traffic on the way home, and arrived to see my brand new iPhone waiting for me.

Of course I have been setting it up/playing with it all night. Of the 32gb of space it has, I am down to 1. That is after downloading a slew of apps, copying over 4,000 songs and 3 movies. I will most likely amend this list soon.

Picture quality is indescribable. The 'Tree of Life' image from The Fountain is making an incredible background to the phone.

Courtesy of a new app, today's picture has a bit of age to it.

Working From Home Is Still Work

Yesterday I had some car trouble and was forced to work from home today. In the long run, it was actually better. There are just certain things that you need your own headspace for. Luckily I was able to do everything I would normally do at work as well as get to the things I wouldn't have been able to do.

I had never worked from home before and thought maybe it would be this glorious thing. Sure, cutting out having to commute to do work, as well as getting an extra hour of sleep was great. But there was no real sleeping in. I started working at 7:30 (which is actually earlier). I worked straight through, except lunch, until after 3.

My car is still not totally fixed, but it is drivable. I will be back in the office tomorrow.

In other news, I got my new shoes today. The one pair: shoe within a shoe (pictured below).

I also found out that I am due for an upgrade on my cell contract. No more worrying about what to ask my parents/siblings for for my birthday. Hello, iPhone 4. Ordered it today. Expected delivery is 2 weeks. Woohoo!

Finally - started watching Veronica Mars today. It's pretty cool for a show about a teenage private investigator.
