What Can I say? Here Come August!

July 30th

This past week was fairly blah and I did not blog but now I am.

July 31st

I thoroughly entertained by John Olivwr and the Daily Show this past week when they lampooned Anthony Weiner and San Diego Mayor Bob Filner!

Just thought windows bad but Filner takes it to a whole new level!! Ewww!

This dude Filner  is a serial sexual creep. I mean

HE SLOBBERED ALL OVER A WOMAN'S FACE!! EEWWwww!

It's Saturday August 3 2013. It's cloudy but comfortable outside in West Philly.

I am on the 21 bus heading to 20th and Chestnut Streets. I got my iced
I called my friend and she was free and we decided to go to the Best Buy in South Philly.

58th Street August 3rd AM

coffee and went to men's meeting. After that I hung out and then checked out the cat that I watching this weekend.
The ride was about an hour away but we got there. She was looking at what are called All in One's. They are desktop computers that have the hard drive etc behind the monitor, so there is no tower to take up space. Most had VERY large screens and large prices that can go over $1000.00. Some were touch-screen, others were not. Both of us were not overly impressed with them and of course they ALL had Windows 8 pre-installed. We

wanted to see if they had Apple computers and YES they did. Boy oh boy, they were NICE LOOKING machines! We BOTH really liked the display ]BUT not the prices. They ranged from $1000.00 to $1,500.00.  We agreed that it would be nice to get one of

these but way too much for what we use our computers for. If I ever decide to pursue my photo

Its a Twisted World Isn't it??

hobby then MAYBE but It would be hard for me to rationalize spending $1,200 bucks and owing a credit card that much. I would earn the scorn of many as they shake their heads!! (e.g SMH!!)\

It was going OK, then I got a request to remove a line from my account. I got a message that Metro PCS said that I needed to remove the line before getting the phone unlocked.

Starbucks Sat Aug 4th

Text re AT&T line. Went to metro. Phone must be unlocked. Unlocked means not under contract. Metro will not call to deactivate AT&T acct. he said you have to buy out of contract, close the line, set the phone free to go to metro land.

Waiting for the 25 Bus to Best Buy!

I went to the AT&T Store at 16th Street near Market and the man said that Metro was to call AT&T. This what I told them.
Well at 4:56pm Saturday I got this

I then went to the cat that I'm baby-sitting, next thing, I was taking a nice nap. I deleted the other version of this blog and then I need some photos and deleted a whole bunch of my iPhone.

I am now going to a meeting and I am running late. This meeting was a bit different then most. The speaker was old school and that's all I can say. I did like it and took some good things out it. Afterwards, the young huddled togethter and I cought the 42 bus while Pat was at the NJ Motorsports Park being an assistant to somebody. I did get some necessary items at the CVS and got my load of laudry at the You Do We Do Laundrymat. I then watched some MLB videos.
