For those who failed to notice, this is the first post. As such, the contents will be along the lines of absolute nonsense...

My intentions for this blog are far from the typical, "I'm bored, so I'm going to share with the world what I'm doing right now to bore me."

Nay. This is to be the site for works in progress, as the hand-written hard copies of manuscripts are volatile, particularly when living with others.

Enough of the nonsense, for I'm beginning to hurt my own brain...

Veterans Day is an annual American holiday honoring military veterans. Both a federal holiday and a state holiday in all states, it is usually observed on November 11. However, if it occurs on a Sunday then the following Monday is designated for holiday leave, and if it occurs Saturday then either Saturday or Friday may be so designated.[1] It is also celebrated as Armistice Day or Remembrance Day in other parts of the world, falling on November 11, the anniversary of the signing of the Armistice that ended World War I. (Major hostilities of World War I were formally ended at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918 with the German signing of the Armistice.)

The holiday is commonly printed as Veteran's Day or Veterans' Day in calendars and advertisements. While these spellings are grammatically acceptable, the United States government has declared that the attributive (no apostrophe) rather than the possessive case is the official spelling.

[INDENT][INDENT][INDENT][COLOR="DarkOrange"][SIZE="1"][B]So I'm having a bit of difficulty deciding what phone I want to get as I'm in need of a new phone. My only problem, is that I'm torn between two different phones and I love them both!

First is the [URL="http://www.t-mobile.com/shop/phones/Cell-Phone-Detail.aspx?cell-phone=Samsung-Behold-Espresso"]Samsung Behold[/URL], a new touch phone from T-Mobile. It's really nice, albeit an ugly color, but there are skins for that (eventually). I played with it today at the T-Mobile store. It was really fun to play with, and really easy to use. Felt good.

Second is the iPhone. You know it. You love it. Its just amazing. I'd need to get it unlocked for T-Mobile, but that's okay with me.

Here are some other factors. I can buy the iPhone much cheaper online. Samsung is still expensive even with an upgrade.

But then people don't like the iPhone for some reason.

Eh.

Anyone?[/B][/SIZE][/COLOR][/INDENT][/INDENT][/INDENT]

[CENTER][COLOR="Red"][SIZE="1"][FONT="Century Gothic"]Today was a pretty productive day.

I went shopping for some stuff earlier this morning.
I bought some candles that smell pretty good:
hazelnut, vanilla, gingerbread, and cranberry mandarin.

After coming home to rest a little, we left again
to buy some flowers to take to the graveyard.

I was texting a friend and I tripped over a small wire sleigh. I was embarrassed until my
friend's aunt tripped over it too. It shouldn't have been in the way.[/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR][/CENTER]
