tasty blog snack

Dear Stacker,

One of these days I will beat you. You will not dominate my life. You will not haunt my dreams. You are just a game and you are not better than me.

I hate you.

Signed,
(i)Justine

According to the Stacker Wikipedia page:

“This game can be adjusted to for greater or lesser difficulty. The owner’s manual states that at the game’s highest difficulty level, the estimated ratio of wins to losses will be near 1 to 800. However, the actual ratio may be lower or higher based somewhat on the skill of the players, with the frequency of winning the major prize being set at the discretion of the game’s operator.”

I asked this guy working at the game counter when the last person won on this particular game and he said “We have a winner about every month.”

Oh yeah? Well you better believe one of these times it will be me. I plan to camp out and panhandle for spare change so I may continue my addiction. It’s so cold out. Good thing I’ve got this big jacket and my iPhone* to keep me warm.

*Note: Do not place iPhone directly into snow. May cause severe damage to speaker and microphone and everything else.

It’s returned!! When I first purchased my iPhone I noticed a little baby pixel flashing every so often. Magically (because the iPhone is magical) it went away. Every once and awhile it’d return to say hi though.

Lately a little friend has been joining in. Today they had a tea party. Tomorrow I believe they are planning a trip to the park and then dinner. Not entirely sure of their plans. They typically don’t let me in on their secrets everyday.

Yes, this is in fact the best twitter tip ever Ha ha ha. Go Heelys!

This is the beginning of my adventure on wheels. Shoes with wheels. Heels that are wheels. Wheels that are my heels.

“Freedom is a wheel in your sole”

Sadly, I can’t take claim to that last quote. It’s on their site!

Some fellow twitterers alerted me yesterday that I made it back to the Yahoo homepage! I’m not sure if you’ve seen this video or not…

Hope everyone had a great year. Here’s to an even better 08!

Brooke and I practicing for our dance recital.

Happy Holidays from iJustine and Studio8.

Be sure to pick up our latest album of wonderful Holiday hits that will be sure to scare your children.. if you have them.

..and if you don’t, find some and show them this video.

Visiting the Yahoo store and getting the treats I gave away last week on chatfest!

Today is Frozen Pea Friday in honor of Susan Reynolds who recently found out she had breast cancer. She started a blog called Boobs on Ice to detail her battle of this experience and share it with others.

Now, I know a lot of you have probably seen the pea-themed avatars floating around on the internet and might have wondered what this was all about. Well, it was in honor of Susan, who as I type this is currently in surgery.

If you’d like to join the “PEAple“, feel free to change your avatar and also upload it to this flickr group.

Most importantly, be sure to check out the official frozen pea fund website to make a donation. All proceeds go directly to Making Strides. If you wish to donate directly, here’s the link.

I wish Susan the best of luck. This is a great cause and I hope that you’ll join in to support her. This is what social media is really all about. I’m extremely happy to be a part of this loving community of people and see the new ways everyone uses these various tools to help others.

All I’m going to say is if you are prepared to waste a lot of time.. then go to the new game just launched by iminlikewithyou called blockles.

If Charles’ mom thinks it’s one the best looking sites on the internet then imagine what you’ll think!

Let’s just say I wasted at least 7 hours today.
