Yesterday, we passed by an In And Out Burger, and we just had to stop there. Its been awhile since we were there last because most of their outlets here in northern CA is not always convenient where we live, so when there is a chance that we saw one of their outlet, it is always hard to pass up, we always take advantage of stopping there. They have really great hamburgers! The one thing i like most about their hamburger is that they add grilled diced onions and thousand island dressing. And their milk shake is one of the best ever, very soft and creamy. So if there is an In And Out Burger where you are and you havent tried them yet, I think you should because I personally think that they have great foods. In addition, my hubby mentioned to me yesterday while we were there that their fresh fries are freshly prepared, peeled and sliced by them, meaning its not from a bag of frozen french fries. Bon Appetit everyone.

These past few days, I been averaging only around 4-5 hours sleep per night and its giving me a migraine. My offline life seems to be demanding so much of my times recently, and definitely miss writing a post here in my blog! It is definitely a sign of blog addiction when you are out somewhere, and there are segments of things that I want to write about in my blog, hahaha.

The great part is, I had the opportunities to take photos of things that I encountered these past few days, which is cool, including a little bit of a mad dog, which despite its grumpiness, I still managed to take photos of him because he looks so cute and adorable. I hope to add the photo of that dog tommorow in my
www.dogscircle.com blog, so hope that you can stop by there too.

And to all my co-bloggers and fellow bloggers who have pending exchange links requests that I havent had the chance to include in my blogroll, I will do my best to do it as soon as I can, so bear with me, i will take care of it, promise. Its almost nine in the evening now, and just want to say Maayong Gabii (good night) everyone!

Last month, I signed up for PayPerPost but they denied my application back then because my blog did not meet the minimum 90 days or successive 3 months requirement. Although this blog is my first blog which I started last February 2007, I did not make any entries for the month of October 2007, which meant that I had to start counting the 3 month period qualification process starting last November of 2007.

Early this week, I finally got an email from PayPerPost that my blog is finally approved and I am now qualified to have access to their blogging review opportunities. I am so excited that I finally got approved and I finally have this chance to make extra dollars to be able to pay back the internet connection that I have to pay every month to the ISP specially that I upgraded my hubby dial-up connection to the fastest connection available here in our area. It is good to know that the internet connection we have as well as the electricity consumption of my computer will finally going to pay itself! Although, for me blogging is not just all about making money, because I truly enjoy writing and photography and blogging allows me to share some of my works and writings, but earning while blogging is definitely an added advantage, so there is no reason for me to say no to this great opportunity when it is there ready for grabs! One of the things that I want to buy with my blogging earnings will be a new portable hard disk with atleast 250 gigabytes of storage space which I can definitely use to store all my mounting digital photo files.

My hubby and I had been following the telivision series Lost since it first played on tv. But somewhere along the way, I got diverted to watching my favorite reality tv show, The Apprentice, a year before last which caused me to miss a lot of the episodes of Lost that were shown on tv at the same time. So I decided to make it a tradition to buy the dvd pack of Lost seasons every year during Christmas time so that my hubby and I can watch the show together at our own pace with no commercials. So far I bought my hubby all three (3) seasons of Lost, and the fourth season is now being played every week on tv this month. Last wednesday, I started watching the show on tv, and I realized how lost I am in the show already because I only got to see the whole Season 1 of Lost, parts of Season 2 and very few of Season 3. Although we have all dvd packs (1-3) right now, i just dont have the time yet to watch all episodes in succession for me to be able to catch up with the whole story and be able to connect with Season 4, which is being played on tv this month. I have no idea how some of the main characters in the show ended up out of the island already and how they were able to get back to their daily lives out of the island. Right now, I am so lost in Lost, and I am hoping to be able to catch up one of these days, before it is time to buy the Season 4 dvd pack again by the end of the year!

What about you, are you a fan of Lost? Do you watch this telivision series all the time when it is played on tv?
One of my passion is photography, that is why I always like to carry my camera with me wherever I go so I can take pictures whenever I want. I love to take photos of our vacations as well as everyday scenes and things that I encounter. There are several photos that I took that I would really want to display in our home specially photos of our trips and vacations, but there is not a lot of wall space or side table space to display my photographies in a photo frame one by one without everything looking so cluttered and taking too much space. That is why I think that the invention and existence of digital frames is such a great idea!

A
digital picture frame allows you to display your digital photos like a slide show, where each picture will be displayed alternately one after the other. Digital frame is perfect to display multiple pictures in a more dynamic and interactive way. Nowadays, digital frames come in various different sizes, around 7 to 15 inches. There are other style of digital frames that allows you to change face, which is great if you want to customize the color scheme of your frame every now and then. Just like traditional picture frames, digital photo frame is designed to display your photographies but the main difference is that you dont have to have the photos printed anymore, all you need is your digital photos files stored in a USB flash drives that can be mounted directly to the digital frame unit and each of the photo will be displayed in a LCD monitor of the frame. When choosing a digital frame to purchase, you have several different options when it comes to colors and styles of frames, photo resolutions, contrast and more. Depending on the price you are willing to pay, there are some digital frame units that have additional state-of-the-art functionalities like remote control, built-in speaker, video playback and more.

Back then, having a spaghetti as an everyday meal is not be common for us and we never have spaghetti on a regular basis. We usually just have spaghetti during special occassion like birthdays, New Years Day, or Christmas day because for a lot of time we are more on the egg noddles, chow mein, and pancit type eaters. Although, I used to order a lot of spaghetti combo in Wendys, McDonalds, and or Jollibee fast foods for a quick meal. But since I got married, I been cooking a lot of spaghetti, not in the usual way, though. Before, when I cook spaghetti I always do it from scratch like have fresh onions and other spices as well using some fresh tomatoes and canned tomato sauce. This time, I usually cook spaghetti using bottled spaghetti sauce like the ones made by Prego, and the ones you can buy in Walmart, too. And add some canned sliced mushroom in it, if no fresh mushroom is available in the ref. And one of the things I truly like that works really great with spaghetti is garlic bread! I cant believe all those years that we been eating spaghetti without any garlic bread, because spaghetti and garlic bread definitely compliment each other really good. I just done eating a spaghetti few minutes ago for dinner and it came out really yummy, so I have that in my mind right now and cannot help it, but talk about it here.
The other day I was trying to burn a cd copy of some photos that I took. While working on it, the cd burner software I had was doing just fine, it was busy writing the files in the blank cd that I inserted in the disk drive. Just when all files were almost 100 percent succesfully written in the cd-rom, the whole program hanged, and I could not open the disk drive to eject the disk. I tried pushing the cd drive eject button several times but the drive would not open.

So, as usual I called my hubby to help me with my problem. Hoping that he can come up with an idea to solve the hanging software and trapped disk I had. At that time, I could not think of any other solution, I almost want to detach the whole cd drive in the computer. Good thing my hubby was there to help, because in a matter of few seconds after of doing what I was doing trying to open the drive, which did not work, he asked me if I have programs in my computer that plays cds. Infact, I have dvd movie software player, so I opened it, and there was an eject button in the program menu, when we clicked it with the mouse, the cd drive opended without any problem whatsoever!

Before I finish off this post, just wanna leave you with these:
Do not hesitate to ask for help. Do not hesitate to ask for second opinion. Two minds are better than one! And sometimes, other people ideas might be better than yours, so learn to listen to others too, your ideas are not the only best ideas.
