Gadgets, gizmos, exhaustion

Looks like I picked the wrong week to trade up my cell phone. Or something like that. I’m literally triple-booked at times these days, and tomorrow night I’m off to Sacramento and then right back on Friday night. Trying to get my new cell phone programmed and ready to accept text messages so I can leave the goddamn beeper behind forever (and so I shall), and also trying to get my other new toy, an Audiovox Thera, synched up so I can use it for my e-mail. It almost works. Even so, I can access work e-mail through its web interface, which means: NO MORE DRAGGING THE LAPTOP AROUND THE COUNTRY!! My back thanks me.
Oh, and the iPod? Shuffle mode tantra, baby.
And the plumbing? Oh, well, the plumber’s coming tomorrow. We have but one toilet, and I’m not going to be the one who makes it inaccessible for long periods of time.
