Nice to meet you Android

New phone for me after 5 years! Goodbye Nokia 6106 (rip 21 August 2010). You have been with me in my travels and were there when I needed to call -- but it's time to let you go because you died on me.

This phone traveled everywhere I went for the past 5 years. Although, it's functions are the very basic in comparison to today's standards, this phone was made to last. I have dropped it numerous times and it withstood time. It was just ashame that it met some unfortunate circumstances.

Functions:

• Blue light flashing when receiving calls
• Call from a to b
• 2mp camera
• The outer white shell however was made to last

Geek talk

Watching tv just after dinner, channel surfing, hubby and I started watching Q&A on ABC2 -- as Dick Smith was on there. Just like many channels the focus was on the upcoming federal election. Immigration, broadband were the major topics. This was when hubsters and I got into a long discussion. He being from a long telco background and me coming from zero telco background, it was like having a debate with Google.This was when our silly discussion started.

Me: I'm with the Liberals (broadband), why waste money on something that would become obsolete anyway?
Hubby: Fibre Optics (what Labour is pushing through to connect every household with) will never be obsolete.
Me: Yes it will.
Hubby: Fibre Optics is like having internet access like speed of light.
Me: What if they have something faster than that in a few years and all that money spent on Fibre Optics is just wasted?Hubby: You do know nothing is faster than speed of light.
Me: Yes there is!
Hubby: What?
Me: Warp speed!

And that's where the geek talk started. Me with zero physics knowledge apart from what I saw on Star Trek (Next Generation, Enterprise & the latest movie) started debating with a telco guru about warp speed. I even looked it up. Yes, warp speed is being studied. It's even on BBC. So there. In conclusion, Star Trek is awesome! ♥

I have been slacking off with the blogging but here are a f ew pics we took at Dank Street's Wahwah Cafe and at Carriage Works near our place one Sunday.

At Wahwah Cafe on Dank Street. Hub had egg's bendict and I had the big breakfast. Wasn't too bad but the bread was rock hard.

Carriage Works..the markets was almost closed when we got there.

Good nite!

Mr Tax Man...

Such an awesome Friday/Saturday!! Hung out out the parentals as they are holidaying overseas for a month! Yup, 1 whole month around Europe and US. Am so happy for them but so jealous, cos I want to go too! But while hanging out, I also got to lodge my tax return thanks to mum (aka my accountant). So so very happy with my returns! *happy dance*


Also saw my doggies today. They always top any day. Also just found out that Happy eats celery. Yes, celery! Very healthy doggy. So cute. She was eating and actually enjoying it.


Actually, she chewed it until it was dry. Still got the good bits though. Now to get Lucky (black pomeranian) to eat vegies. He's getting on, roughly about 12-13yrs old and he already has arthritis and poor vision -- he does not look like it though as he still is uber cute and looks more like a bear than a dog. I just hope he makes it like this dog -- 29yr old dog, only eats rice and veg though. I tried feeding Lucky the celery but he just sniffed it and walked off. =T

Just found this also..good vegies to give to your canines.


With my two doggies. Apologies for the whiteness/paleness -- this is what winter does. Come on summer! Need the tan back.





To end the day..made a tonne of tuna pasta and a massive bowl of salad for dinner. Hubby and I devoured the whole thing. There goes my healthy eating plan!
