the good and the bad and the other stuff

the good: i finally got my blackberry account for my phone straightened out.
the bad: i’ve gone from getting my email instantly delivered to my phone to having a delay of anywhere from 3-10 minutes. now of course you’re thinking to yourself “why in the world would that be too long of a wait?” it’s not really, but oddly enough i feel a bit behind even with that miniscule time delay.
the good: having the blackberry internet service account enables me to pull email off the work email server without being on the blackberry enterprise server. this alone is reason enough to keep this method even with the incredibly slight e-mail delay.

the good: the weather so far this winter (even though winter hasn’t really started yet) hasn’t been as bad as i would have imagined
the bad: it’s only really snowed once. ONCE. i need the snow.
the good: the winter is just about to begin.

and now for the other stuff …

so this past week i was thinking about getting a netflix subscription. the irony is that today i received a code from a magazine rep that gives me a month of membership. so i’ve opened up a new netflix account but i don’t know what to add. i’m hesitant to add anything until i know what i want to watch this weekend since i’ll probably get the first three movies i choose. this is too complicated. i need movie recommendations. everyone who has netflix should add me to their friend’s list [ ryan @ ryaninchicago . com (without the spaces, of course)].

i had to use my work mailing address for my movies because mail service to my place of residence just isn’t reliable. the united states postal service must route everything through india or china first before it gets here. that reminds me, i have a package waiting for me at the post office. while i haven’t received a final notice, i imagine it has already been returned back to the sender. now that i think about it i also haven’t received my debit card yet either. hmmm. i will have to make a note of that for later.

maybe i’ll write again after i’ve put the computer away.

good night for now.
