Mobile blog post

What to write...what to write...

- So I'm setting at a restaurant. Just ordered a sirloin steak from the bartender I have a crush on. It's kinda funny. This place, Texas Roadhouse, hired very attractive bartenders. I think there's only one male in the group. But this particular girl is the only one that has the personality to go with the looks. Another has gorgeous dark hair but absolutely ignores me if there's no tip involved. Another is very nice, but peppy. Obnoxiously so and gives terrible service.

But this one, oh this one... She's not gorgeous, in the magazine model sense, but very cute and could model jeans, if you know what I mean. They all have a policy of not dating customers, so I'm using that as an excuse to not ask her out. Chicken.

She always wears sparkly jeans. Just begging to be glanced at.

- I like people watching. It's fun to sit here and try and guess what's going on between couples out for a nice dinner. Today is a little different. There's usually a couple that looks like neither of them want to be here. Don't see any of those today. There's a couple over there having what looks like a first or second date. He looks very happy to be going out with her, probably because she's super hot, but she looks slightly interested, at best.

- I'm probably going to have to start calling this thing my date, and not an iPad. How sad.

- I started drafting an updated resume today. A big fat birdie hinted that we might be the only division open by the end of the year. When stuff like that happens, owners usually start chopping from the top.

I just look for reasons to be pessimistic, don't I?

- Speaking of owners, I got an invitation to my bosses wedding reception. They're getting married this week, in Hawaii, and having the reception in their home town later. I should go, but I'm probably not. On the other hand, the booze will probably be free.

- The two guys next to me are having a conversation in Spanish. I feel like I'm back in Cali.

- What is it about military guys? I'm watching a double date happening across the way. The guys are obviously air force and their dates are smokin hot. I see that a lot around here. Maybe me shaving my head will do some good. Up until they find out the truth...

- So I've finished my dinner. Just got a fresh Coors Lite. (Stupid calorie counter.) An ALCS game is on the tv. Baseball is somewhere on the list of 'sports I don't care about'.

- Sorry there are no pictures. I'm comfortable with typing this at a bar, but taking pictures for this post is too much.

- I wish I could understand the guys next to me. Maybe I should try that Spanish education program I saw at Sam's club. Maybe there's an app for that.

- Their wireless network is wide open. Nice.

- So after surfing a bit, finishing my beer, and driving home, that's the end of this post.

Have a nice evening.

  2. CP - The iOS update today is changing the keyboard. You'll be able to split it, so the 2 halves are closer to the edges.

  3. I love to people watch. I'm such a dinosaur when it comes to new technology. My MIL gave me a phone with a keyboard because I like to text. I hate the darned thing! I still text the old way. If I can't lay my fingers on the letters like a keyboard, then forget it. I don't look when I type... I just type. On you iPod can you type normally? If so, I'd love it. But very cool that you can post on the go!

  4. "Baseball is somewhere on the list of 'sports I don't care about'."

    Heathen!

    I love to people watch, too. My favorite place for it is Las Vegas. It is an endless entertainment there. Sit in a casino for a hour and every possible permutation of a couple will go by - young & young, old & old, young guy & old woman, old guy and young woman, all races intermingled, happy, sad, going to get married, back from being married, headed for divorce without a doubt, etc.

  5. rabbit - I had to chuckle. Just reading your comment screams the fact that your a technological dinosaur. ;)

    suldog - Oh so sorry. No not really. I'll watch it if it's in front of me, but whatever. Vegas is a great place to people watch. Or maybe freakle watch.

  7. Blue zoo - yeah, I think I'd like to be welcome back. It would have been a great picture though.

  8. Baseball is the top of my list of sports I don't care about. Of course, all sports are somewhere on that list for me.

    So, you mentioned and app for blogging from an ipad, I think, but can't find it. What's it called? I want to try that.

    (The military guys? I think it's because the military is popular right now and then there's the confidence issue - they tend to be very assertive. I don't think it's the shaved heads. I'm a pacifist and it's totally not my thing, although my son accused me of like big, burly military guys today.)

  9. I loved your mobile post and am finally somewhere that will allow me to comment! yay!
    I love people watching as well. Sometimes I use Twitter from my phone for making observations...but the iPad, outta my league. Like, I feel about the iPad like you feel about the lovely bartender:)

  10. Secret agent - its called blogpress and it's currently broken, since the iOS 5 update. They're working on a fix. It doesn't have any formatting options, but if you know them in HTML, it's possible that way.

    Laura b - you think the iPad has a cute butt?
