I'm like a soda that's been shaken up—boom!
If iTunes 9 blinded you with its white background in Grid view, then you'll love iTunes 9.0.2. Apple has added the ability to switch to a dark Grid view. Here's how to enable it.
Go to the iTunes menu and choose the "Preferences..." command (Edit>Preferences... in Windows). Look for the "Grid View" option about two-thirds of the way down the Preferences window (It's on the right-hand side). Change it from "Light" to "Dark" and then press the "OK" button to save these preferences.
I went to see "The Box" last night with Josh. I don't recommend it. The suspense and thriller parts were great. The plot, however, left something to be desired. Also, there were many questions that were unanswered at the end of the movie. It just kept getting worse and worse until the credits rolled and I was more confused than ever.
I was at a place called Coffee Talk in Clare, Michigan today and decided to have a salad for lunch. Let me tell you, the Caribbean Salad was delicious, if misnamed. It was romaine lettuce topped with grilled chicken, red onion, pecans, canned peaches, and chevre (goat cheese) with a citrus onion dressing. Fresh peaches would have been better but the salad was still delicious! I want to go back and try all the other stuff on their menu, now!
Today, I turn 26. I have a feeling that this will be a boring birthday. Hooray
I took my car (1989 Pontiac Bonneville SE) to the mechanic to get a brake job. He called us later that day and said that he lifted the car up, took one look around, and decided not to replace my breaks. He saw that my cradle was rusted through and that it would be unsafe for me to continue driving the car. (The cradle holds the bits and pieces in the car... a rusted cradle could drop the transmission and stuff onto the road while I was driving.)
My parents helped me find a new car. "New." It's a 1994 Oldsmobile 98 Regency. It's a pretty nice car. It's a bit big but not too bad. It's color is called "champagne", I believe, and it it gives off a a little-old-lady vibe, but it runs well and gets me to the places I need to go so it's all good.
