'notepads' are for losers.

one of my roommates and i are the only ones amongst our friends who don't own some sort of crackberry, iphone, or those random verizon smartphones that NO ONE knows how to work...(mandy, you are the biggest culprit, i sat for 15 minutes trying to read your text messages and couldn't figure it out.) when you don't even pay for internet service on an internet capable phone, unfortunately your 'notepad' becomes the only tool that you can very rarely use. it's really only when you're in an extreme predicament where there is no paper, no computer, and absolutely no writing utensil to write down something you reallllyyyy want to remember.

hence, 'note 2', that was recorded on november 26th, at 8:50am. i find it weird that i was reading a washington irving quote that early in the morning, but anyways, here's an awesome quote. to where it's origins can be attributed to, i have no idea. i don't even remember taking it down.

"it is, indeed, the season of regenerated feeling- the season, for kindling, not merely the fire of hospitality in the hall, but the genial flame of charity in the heart." -washington irving

obviously pertains to the holiday season, but recent events make me think it is a statement that rings true, no matter what time of the year it is.
