HTC EVO 4G

I'm obsessed.  It always happens in August, but I want an HTC EVO 4G.  I thought I would wait until next year to get a new phone, but why.  I'm already eligible for an yearly upgrade since I'm Sprint Premiere customer.  So, why not get a new phone.  I'm not leaving Sprint for another carrier.  


Do I need a new phone? No.
Is my phone still working? Yes.


***As of this writing a Radio Shack has one in stock and I'm going after work***


EVO 4G Here I come!!!!

Walk to work

I take the same route (subway and walk) to work and run across the some same people.   


I find it fascinating that we run into these people for months maybe years and don't know them, but are friendly and cordial.


Ahhhhh New York City.

When are we going to learn

Killed for "acting like a girl".  Sick.Sad.What an idiot.  I hope he rots in jail.  Where did he learn that it was okay to punch a baby and hold it by it's throat?





 

Next Book - The Big One

I'm reading the 800 plus page "The Passage".  It is another book with vampires in it.  I was looking for a good summer book after reading "Breaking Dawn".  Steven King gave it a great review in Entertainment Weekly so I thought I'd give this $9.99 book a try.  That's another reason ereaders are convenient .  You can buy a book for $9.99 instead of the thick hardcover that costs $27.00.  So you cut the money and weight.


As of now, there are three main characters:

Amy (little girl abandoned by mother)
Wolgast (FBI)
Anthony Carter - death row inmate

110 pages in I can tell this is going to be one of those books with many characters weaving in and out of each other. These vampires are more monster than Edward Cullen and definitely don't sparkle.  


I will remind you that the book is 800 pages long (more or less).  I was intimated by that because it takes me a while to finish a book with working as much as I do, but I can tell this book is weaving a great story and that something is going to happen  (that was before I saw the subtitle in the picture to the right.  The book is so good, I'm already picturing actors in certain roles. 


I'm hoping to be done by September!
