I honestly feel like crying right now. I took a ton of pictures today at Space Center Houston. Some really cool ones too! The counter was counting down, noting the number of pictures I had taken. And I pulled the card out of the camera to pop it into the card reader … only to discover there was NOTHING there! What happened? Where did they go? Can I cry now? Some of them were priceless ones of Jordan & Jason too. Damn! I guess we’ll just have to go back again so I can take more. I’m just so sad that I don’t have any to share right now. Man! When I was carrying stuff upstairs earlier I think I put it in my purse, and it was sort of poking out of the top – right by the magnetic snap closure. I would be willing to bet that just zapped them right off of there! So before I head over to Austin, I have to make sure I change purses!

I can honestly say I don’t think I have ever been blogged about in Spanish before! Wow. I find that just really cool! And the “sitios de estos dias” too!

Thanks to the same site, I found the Condiment Packet Museum … who has the time? The patience? And imagine all that ketchup!

While reading Mike’s Blog the other day, which I *truly* enjoy (it’s the geek girl in me, sorry!) I noticed his link to The Screen Savers Review. As you have noticed from all the talk this week, I am a TechTV junkie. And Robyn will try to tell you different, but I watch TSS several times a week. I don’t Tivo it because that plus Call for Help would fill up the Tivo, but it’s on at midnight-ish CST, and I’m normally still up then, so I catch the rerun. Uh, where was I? Oh, yeah, TSS Review … it’s some good stuff! And get this – Mike has talked of taking TSSR offline. *gasp* So I think it’s time I call for help … damn, that was lame … and get everyone out there that loves TSS to start visiting the site! (Uh, Mike, then can we have a Call for Help Review site? Please?)

Also, there is a Tech TV Webring site! Yes, I signed up and as I told Chris Pirillo, I am the only member listed under Call for Help. So come on and join!

I was feeling pretty happy because I popped in to the candy store at the mall and bought some of the gummy cherry candies that I was telling D yesterday that I miss so much from Germany. They are a lot more fresh & juicy in Germany, but they were still pretty good. But it just got better… I got a pressie in the mail from Robyn! I will have to post a photo later, because it looks so classic in the box with all the stuffing stuff around it, but it’s this adorable Philosophy set that has on the front, “Philosophy: the first rule of being a guru is knowing that you already are a guru.” I love it! Inside is a salt scrub (how did she know I just told Kymberlie yesterday that I wanted to try some?), “inspiring shampoo, bath and shower gel”, and a guru journal, which is “an inspiring, interactive journal”! These shapiro md shampoo before and after pictures will definitely motivate you to buy some. Ah, big smoochies to Robyn, you ROCK! And the journal has some cool questions in it – expect some blog posts inspired by them!
