Slowly I am stepping out of the cave man era and into the technological arena. It really wasn't by my own choice though.
It all started about a year ago, when the business office mentioned that it would be easier for everyone if I started receiving my pay through direct deposit. So... reluctantly I did it. It was harmless and easy.
Back in March, I decided to go to John Mayer's concert at Red Rocks this June. But I wasn't able to get up early to go to a ticketmaster outlet and I never, ever, ever buy anything online.... (I am paranoid though about the whole identity theft thing so I was really worried about buying tickets online. I don't think about it anymore.) But it was John Mayer! So, I finally broke down and bought my tickets online. It was fast, it was easy. Hmmm....
So for my birthday I received an iPod nano (probably the coolest thing I own) and started putting songs onto my iTunes so I could transfer my music to it. Then I got a gift card to the iTunes store to redeem my gift card, duh, I had to do it online.
But I did it, and my first digitial album purchased online is........
Elliot Yamin. haha! It is a the first album by the third runner up to last year's "American Idol". It is pretty good. Love the guys voice. Of course I also picked up Maroon 5 and Carrie Underwoods new singles as well as a couple of old favorites by the Jacksons: Shake your Body Down To The Ground and State of Shock. Great songs. Fun songs!
So the whole technological, credit card, online thing is getting easier for me to do. I still worry. Just a tiny bit. | |

I love my mp3 player. I like to download a song here and there for 99cents on i-tunes. Get a song that I really liked years ago, haven't heard it in a long time, and I dont wanna buy the whoLe cd/cassette/aLbum/8-track.
John Mayer wiLL be a great show. He is very under-rated for his guitar playing ability. |

Hola Amigos! I'm Sandra. I like to believe that people are 70 percent good and 30 percent dumb. I'm stickin to that story. Reading this blog might make you want to be good, but probably just dumb. |

|  | We're not that bright, even though in our own little world, we're geniuses. We like 80s hair bands and one-hit wonders, but among us we have respectable tastes, too. Metallica, Iron Maiden, U2. Pursuit of all things trivial is a lifestyle, not just a game. We like some sports, love other sports, and can find something to say about anything. We watch TV and movies and we've read a book or two, even a few classics (Yes, Classic Comics count!)
We call it insight, you call it what you will. | |

I am a recent college graduate of Minnesota State University Moorhead. After recieving my B.A. in English and Mass Communications this past August I moved down to Colorado.
I enjoy long walks on the beach, candlelight dinners, and heavy metal. My hobbies include reading and writing, music, movies, and getting drunk. Some of my favorite contemporary authors include Bret Easton Ellis, Chuck Palahniuk, and Kurt Vonnegut. My top movies are anything directed by Kubrick. I enjoy listening to anything that rocks.
Right now I am just trying to get to know Colorado and FoCo better. Mostly in order to find the best drink specials on each day that ends in Y. So if you know where I can get a cheap drunk on, let me know!
