Digital Camera

Thursday, July 26th, 2007 by Dawn Summers

So, Michael’s suggestion about the portable USB cord worked and we were able to upload photos straight from the card. Which begs the question: if the camera can still take pictures, and the card is functioning, why on earth cant I upload the pictures from the camera???

Fine print of the day

NOTE: Facebook only allows you to bite 10 victims per day.
We keep track of who you bit, so you can be sure to bite new people every day!

The key to fundraising

Me: Did you get the email from him?
Pi: Yeah, I forwarded it to you.
Me: So is he really inviting us out to drinks or does he just want money for his Clinton thing?
Pi: Who cares? He’s hot.
Me: Yeah…

Esther is mad funny

Wednesday, July 25th, 2007 by Dawn Summers

Seriously. I mean, I enjoy a good neck bite from a sexy vampire like David Boreanaz or James Marsters, or even prettyboy Brad Pitt or crazyman Tom Cruise. Or at least I would if any of them were nice Jewish boy vampires. Otherwise there’s too much guilt. But you zombie Facebook biters have got to get a day job. Like maybe throwing sheep.

I worry about you–all that brain eating and you’ve got to be pretty smart by now. Why not figure out a way for me to import blog posts to the homepage of a group? Or do something constructive with your time? Like petition Joss Whedon to bring back Firefly? Or start a Scrabble blog? (Yes, Dawn, this means you.)

-Esther

Oh, for those of you (read: total losers) who are not on facebook…they have a zombie program that I have um…taken quite a liking to…so again, if you want me to throw sheep at you and bite you at regular intervals, join facebook!

Oh and I get to beat up on Chugarte at Scrabble all day long. We don’t so much like the getting beat up on by Fisch. That’s less fun.

On aging

• Teens text. Period. Asheem Badshah, the teen-aged president of Scriptovia.com, an essay-sharing web site, says: “For me even IM died, and was replaced by text messaging. Facebook will replace e-mail for communicating with certain people.”

• Catherine Cook, co-founder of MyYearbook.com, said she still emails some friends, but she sends thousands of text messages a month: “I don’t know any teen who doesn’t have a phone with them all the time.”

Hearing it straight from teen entrepreneurs gives parents a look into what they can expect from their own teens. (Thanks to Anne Collier at NetFamilyNews for the link.) How are your teens communicating most these days?

OMG! I totally text all the time! And I don’t send emails at all, not even for work. Therefore, it follows that I am a teenager.

In other news, I will no longer make an effort to watch VH1’s “I hate my 30s”

Dr. Summers says “What”?

WHAT?

LONDON - Brian May is completing his doctorate in astrophysics, more than 30 years after he abandoned his studies to form the rock group Queen.

The 60-year-old guitarist and songwriter said he plans to submit his thesis, “Radial Velocities in the Zodiacal Dust Cloud,” to supervisors at Imperial College London within the next two weeks.

Lohan arrested for again for driving under the influence

Wednesday, July 25th, 2007 by Dawn Summers

21-year-old found the party, but couldn’t get a ride home.

The 21-year-old actress was arrested and released on bail for investigation of misdemeanor driving under the influence and with a suspended license, and felony cocaine possession, early Tuesday in Santa Monica, less than two weeks after completing her second trip to rehab.

“I am innocent … did not do drugs they’re not mine. I was almost hit by my assistant Tarin’s mom I appreciate everyone giving me my privacy,” Lohan wrote in an e-mail to “Access Hollywood” host Billy Bush, the show reported on its Web site Tuesday night.

I totally feel for her…none of the coke in my pocket is mine either.

Wow…wow…

I have to thank Kaz, Tito, pearatty, Mr. pearatty and Jamie for recent birthday season awesomeness. And after each of their names, I want to add “but especially.”
As in but especially Kaz for flying cross country to surprise me at my surprise party in LA for the second year in a row.
But especially Pearatty and Mr. Pearatty for throwing me an awesome surprise party in LA for the second year in a row, complete with burning trees and drunk dialing Rick Blaine.
But especially Tito for making and bringing that which I now simply call “The Pie,” because it really does laugh and point at all other pies.
But especially Jamie for making me squeal like a 12-year-old girl (get your minds out of the gutter people, I’m not finished!) when I opened my very own boxsets of the first two seasons of Beauty and the Beast.

But then, of course, I would have to add all those but especiallys to the already long list of but especially Mr. and Mrs Jake, Mary, Binda and everyone else who has been so so so awesome during this this last Dawn Summers birthday season.

Thanks!

Not so random question

Wednesday, July 25th, 2007 by Dawn Summers

Someone asked me for directions this morning in the following manner. “Do you know if this train goes to Carroll street?”
I wanted to answer simply “yes.” As in, yes I know that it does not. Is that wrong?
