So does anyone know of any cheap vacations? Cause I would love to go on one this summer and all, but it seems like no matter what I want to do I'm going to be spending a ton of money. So yeah...let me know if you guys know of something other than just CAMPING UP THE MOUNTAIN or HANGING IN A RANDOM SOMEONE'S BASEMENT.
So I'm going to vent about VERIZON WIRELESS here for a bit. Here's the skinny. My phone has been a bit on the fritz as of late. I charge up the battery and stuff, and lately throughout the day my phone will just die. Then...it started to be more constant. Though, when it happens I could watch it die. For example, I will charge my phone full. Then if I just text on it all day it's usually dead after about 8 hours. But...if I make a call right after I charged it...it'll probably die after about 15 minutes. Same thing if I use an app or use the camera or whatever. It's retarded. So, I went in to the Verizon dealer in the Orem mall. Talked to them about the problems...told them what was happening. Now, I'm a pretty savvy guy when it comes to electronics. I understand them and everything for the most part. I've been using a cell phone for over 13 years. I mean come on. Anyway, I go in there and they tell me that it could be the battery, but since I am three software upgrades behind that it could be that. Now, that in my mind is retarded. How in the world could a software upgrade make it so my battery doesn't die? Anyway, he told me that he could get me a battery but they didn't have any at this store and stuff too. So I asked if I could do a software upgrade and he pretty much told me that he didn't want to since they were closing in like 45 minutes or so. So...that sucked. This was Thursday night.
So I couldn't go in on Friday cause we were busy at work and after work I just wanted to get up to Layton and stuff. So on Saturday morning I go to the Verizon dealer in the Layton mall. Tell them about what's going on with my phone and stuff and they tell me that they can do the software upgrade no problem. Takes like 45 minutes and stuff. But...since they were in a different area than Verizon they did things differently when it came to batteries. They told me that they had to do a 6 HOUR battery test where they charge it all the way up and then they had a machine that makes a call with it and tests it. Now that's retarded. Let me remind you that all of this is under warranty by the way. So I didn't want to leave my phone for 6 hours...mainly cause that's retarded. So I get my software upgrade. About 20 minutes after my software upgrade my phone starts freaking out. When I hit the END BUTTON it would make the whole screen dark and stuff...but the phone was still responsive. Only way to fix it was to take the battery out and put it back in...and even then that didn't fix it half the time. So today (Mon) I go into the Verizon store on the Orem strip (University Parkway). Go in and talk with a tech guy and pretty much tell him that my phone is crap, it's under warranty...and he needs to replace it now cause I'm pissed. So he replaces my phone. Sweet. :)
So I get my phone, go to my car and start setting up my phone. I decide that I want to drive to the Orem mall and get some ICEBERG, cause it sounds fetching awesome at the moment. As I'm driving there I'm downloading some of my apps again and in the middle of downloading one my whole phone shuts off again cause of the battery saying it's dying. Now this confuses me. So when I get to the mall I go into the Verizon store and ask about my phone. Turns out they don't replace the battery cause it's under a different warranty and stuff. So...again...when I have been telling them that my battery is the problem the whole time they don't listen to me and do more stupid stuff. The girl I talked to wouldn't get me a battery cause I just barely got the new phone and I needed to "test" it out to make sure it's really the battery. Yeah...I've already today fully charged my battery three times and it's died within the hour. Pretty much the only way I can use it is if I leave it on the charger. It's super lame. So...tomorrow I get to go in there again and demand a battery since I can't even use my damn phone. Blah. End of story.
Sorry for how fetching long that was...but it felt good to write it out.
As for other news...I have another confession to tell about. I did it again. Lol. Saturday at Shane's party I got drunk for the first time. Not drank for the first time...but drunk. The way it happened? CROWN ROYAL and MONSTER. But hey...I liked it. :) That party was pretty fun. Props to me for making a good all around play list right? Sorry about the SAVAGE GARDEN and CHRISTINA AGUILERA though. That was mainly just to make people laugh...even if I do like it. ;) I'm going to give out some mini awards for people though for the PARTY. Hopefully you guys don't get pissed! :)

All in all it was a good time. I'm not mad at anyone or anything...I'm just giving you guys a hard time. I'm sure there will be more pics and vids that will be posted by others later on down the road. Just to give a heads up to my drunk experience....it was a really weird feeling. After I downed my Crown and Monster...I downed Fred's cause he's really too much of a pussy to do it himself...and then about three minutes later it just hit me like a WAVE. I laughed hysterically on the kitchen floor while Fred kicked me (medium hard like) in the ribs. Didn't really feel it. Mainly cause everything got really numb...hence why I was lying on the floor. It was a crazy feeling. I just smiled a lot and then when I could walk again (20-30 minutes later) I just went around and talked to everyone and told them how cool they were and anything else I thought I should tell them. I knew what was going on...I probably had a slight slur on my speech, but I knew what I was saying. It was nice to know what people were always shooting for when they drink. And I knew why it was retarded to go further cause I'm sure if I drank more it wouldn't have been so GOOD. Thanks again Kellie for feeding me water through the night so my head didn't hurt. :) But it was fun. I think I'll do it again someday...just not for awhile.
As for the other stuff that's going on in my life...there's not really too much. I can't wait for the Orem Owlz to start playing here in the next few weeks. I'll actually have something to do at night! Well...you know what I mean...that's active and stuff. I just am losing interest and motivation in all the things I used to be involved in. Isn't that a sign of a personality disorder? Hmmmm....
Sports time girls. ;)
So the Lakers win. Grats whatever. Who cares. I mean, we knew it was going to happen. Big surprise. Now we can go sit around and talk about nothing unless you like baseball. Which...no one does except for me. Super lame. Football starts in a few months...then some people will have something to say at least. Till then...I get to rant about baseball. :)
All you really need to know about baseball at the moment is this. All the pitchers that were amazing last year aren't that great this year. Yes...some of them are doing good and stuff...but not as good as the hype was about them. Makes me sad. But...it's all good. Pitching is hard work...and a whole off season can make people change and whatnot. Other things you need to know is that the Yankees and Red Sox are back in the races while the Rays and Blue Jays fall off their high horse. I hate the Red Sox. Rangers are still doing well and the Tigers are too if we are talking about the AL. But other than that...there's not much excitement going on over there.
This week is inter-league play. Meaning the NL plays the AL based on their Regions and stuff. Which is cool for the fans cause you get to see teams play that never would cause the likely-hood of them meeting in the World Series was just so unlikely. So you get to see the Angels and Dodgers play, the Yankees and the Mets, Phillies and the Red Sox, Rangers against the Astros, and the Rockies against the Rays.........wait? The Rockies against the Rays? Those guys are opposite sides of the continent. Way to go and screw that match up MLB! Oh well...
Last things you need to know is just what to bring up if you find yourself in the midst of all us baseball fans. Rockies are on an 11 game tear right now. It's insane. They are playing the Rays tomorrow but it should be a good matchup for them. The Nationals are still the worst team in baseball. Manny comes back in about 3 weeks...meaning Dodger fans will have a lot to talk about and debate. And of course...who leads in home runs. :)

FML of the week: Today, my husband called me from work just to chat. He asked what I had been up to today. I was feeling frisky so I told him all about how I had gotten horny, watched a porno and masturbated earlier. It wasn't until I heard the hoots and laughter that I realized he had me on speakerphone. FML
That's all people. Love you all. :)
