my new 10-bucks gaming mouse

 I am going to name her... sunny

back to GINGERBREAD!

After spending half an hour on the phone with Mobilicity and another hour and a half with Samsung - during which I've had my phone restored to factory settings twice - I was finally told that my MMS had stopped working simply because my Nexus S didn't like Ice Cream Sandwich and it's a known bug that Google is supposedly working on resolving.  It sucks because the ICS was an over-the-air update that came from Samsung - they should have tested it to make sure it's compatible before pushing it out. 

Meanwhile, my dear friends had somehow all gotten the bug to send me pictures that I keep telling them I can't see rather than through e-mail or whatsapp.  I was almost at my wit's end when B came to the rescue and got Gingerbread back on my phone.  Unfortunately I lost some contacts and apps during the switch because Gingerbread didn't have the data portability functionality, and the stock camera app in Gingerbread is pathetically laughable.  But since I switched back to Gingerbread, my contact list now works with the Facebook app to show the profile picture of that contact rather than having to manually take their pics again.  And MMS now works!  Hooray!

Time to get off the couch and start moving yeah!

Couple of weeks ago we took advantage of bonus Optimum points plus instant rebate in the form of a Shopper's Drug Mart gift card to bring home the XBOX Kinect bundle - and now it's all set up and ready to go!

So far my favorite is still the adventure game that came with the console - especially the obstacle course you cruise through on a platform where you have to jump over and duck down bars among other things.  Can't wait to try out other Kinect games!

My New Toy!!

Got my early birthday present but didn't wanna risk putting a scratch on it... (my precious!)  So now that we finally got around to dressing it up - we can start using FaceTime :)
