Snow!

It's been snowing for almost four days now. I feel like I live in a snow globe.

My boots haven't been properly dry since New Year's Eve. Only about four churches were closed this morning. If we had this weather in Michigan, all of Grand Rapids would be shut down. Yet, everyone continued about their business. People we know came to our church complaining that theirs was closed.

20 inches of snow, and it's life as usual. We went to Wegmans after church and there were a decent number of people there grocery shopping and at the cafe. Even the church youth group trekked out

New Year, New Start

I got a new phone!

It's a blue enV3. Not the most tricked out, expensive phone out there, but it is miles cooler than my previous phone. I just got it on wednesday so It's still all new and shiny. It flips open to a full keyboard and it looks like a secret agent phone. Needless to say, I check it for messages way more than I should, carry it around like it's attached to me, and find an excuse to show it to EVERYONE.

My bizarre and probably unhealthy attachment to my new phone reminds me of my general obsession with technology.

I love technology.

I don't understand it, but I love it.

I have a cell phone, laptop, external hard drive, camera, 5 year old ipod, ihome, a flash drive, and numerous cords and connectors. I even have a backpack to keep them all in. It's my technology bag.

Additionally, I have a minor obsession with internet fame. I have a facebook, youtube channel (on which I post the occasional vlog) a blog (obviously) a twitter account, and I'm contemplating a flickr account.

All the time I see people on the internet who are world famous and can make a living off of the internet, and I wonder why the heck can't I do the same? They're regular people. I'm a regular person. I don't see why I'm not famous already. (kidding)
