I just lost a whole article that took me over 5 hours to write. I have no idea how, or why. I had saved it seven million times. When I reloaded from the drafts section, half of the article was just GONE. I want to cry.
Yes, I am a huge geek and JUST saw Nintendo and EA are releasing a news Sims line - MySims (thanks StumbleUpon!!).
The trailer:
Slated for a Fall 2007 release. I’m still Wii-less, but I will definitely try to get a hold of a DS version!!

I didn’t announce this yet on any of my official sites, so I figured it’s about time. I’m pregnant! Actually, I’m quite pregnant. I’m 25 weeks along, due on October 21st. I already have a five year old son, and 18 month old daughter, so this is not new territory for me. Haven’t yet found out the sex and just ready to be done being pregnant. So, fair warning October and November may be quiet months here at CSSgirl…. Ah who am I kidding? I was back to work 2 weeks after my daughter was born!
Today I got my very first personal cellphone. Yes, I am 23. Yes, I do live in NY. No, I really don’t know how I went so long without one!
So, I got a pink Razr phone, through Verizon. It’s nice. It’s shiny.
Unlike many people I haven’t found such a problem with navigating the menus, although I do agree with the gizmodo review, it definitely could be more intuitive than it is. And since I’m ghetto, I even recorded my own ringtones, cuz there is no way in hell I’ll be paying 1.99 for one!
I’ve snapped a few pics on it, mostly surprise photos to use as photo ids when people call, so I can laugh everytime I see them. The quality, even on the phone is a bit grainy, and the colors could be better, but it works for only a 1.3 megapixel camera.
I find it hard to talk on when I’m trying to do something else, mostly because I’m so used to wedging my normal house phone between my chin and shoulder and going about my business as normal. And it took a bit of getting used to at first because if you don’t have the phone just right on your ear the sound quality drops.
One thing I defintely don’t dig is how the phone screen can touch your face as you talk, so your natural body oils get on the screen if you’re not very careful. Not a very big deal, but on these 90+ days we are having it is a bit annoying. I wonder if they make cases for the Razr?
Well, it’s snappy. It’s pretty. I love it! Now just don’t call me until after 9pm :) !
edit: I’ve had my phone active for a little over 3/4 hours and already dropped it on my hardwood floors. I managed to chip a small piece of the pink off the battery cover… otherwise working well dispite the nasty fall….
