    on one hand i wish i blogged more about the adventures that i had this year, on the other it’s not stuff i want to be visible to google/public. if i make this site private, would anyone care to see it? or write just for myself? i may just do that. ping me if you are interested.

    rant on chargers

    i’m traveling lots now.
    so i have:
    – kindle
    – ipod
    – camera (nikon)
    – mac air
    – work laptop
    – blackberry
    – hair straightener

    and
    every
    bloody
    thing
    has
    its
    own
    charger

    w
    t
    f
    .

    now, let’s multiply that to at least 2 distinctive geographical zones (swiss and UK), ignoring any Canada chargers.

    let’s add 2 mice (both travel mice but somehow my bluetooth isn’t working with the work laptop, once i get that it’ll at least be cut down to 1)

    let’s add the work charger cables (which i will cull down this trip to just 1, from 3 – canada/uk/eu because i do need to work on the road and thus the canada cable). at least only 1 brick and 3 different “exit” cables!

    basically half my suitcase is electronics.

    and this means no ipad either.

    (ALSO I HAVE A MAC AIR AND ITS THE AWESOMEST)

    music highlights for march/april

    wiz califa – black and yellow
    dennis fever – hey hey
    lavive – no time for sleeping
    tinie tempah – written in the stars
    mr saxobeat
    whip your hair
    duck sauce – barbara streisand
    martin solvieg feat dragonette – hello
    parov stelar++
    jessie j – do it like a dude
    stromae – alors on danse
    kanye west feat rihanna – all of the lights

    don’t judge. each song now has a massive amount of associations and memories for a ridiculously diverse number of reasons.

    mackin’ on kate spade bracelets

    i’m day dreaming about some kate spade stuff.

    without going into too much detail in a public forum, i’m about to have some fairly massive changes in my life and thus am on hold in terms of big shopping decisions until these changes transpire. but i LOVE these bracelets. love their message too. i may break down and get one. or two.

    and i totally need a laptop bag. just probably not this one. ha!
