Smart watch number two. I used to have the Samsung gear live which I know gave to Joe. It ran Android wear which was actually pretty nice considering its integration with Google.

I switched to the gear s2 because the watch looks nicer and because I was interested in a watch with its own data connection.

T-Mobile has a nice deal where you can get a phone number and data plan for your watch for $5/month with no contract. That's only $60/year and it makes it so that your watch is not useless without your phone.

Calling from the watch is pretty great. The sound is very clear. It feels space agey go dial and talk to your watch. I still wish it had a camera of its own. You can use it to control your phones camera but that's still not as awesome as if it had its own camera. If it did I would be more likely to leave the phone behind.

I miss the better hangouts integration that the Google branded watch had but it still works pretty good. you can also use it with Samsung milk music which has a pretty great app.

The build in GPA should be good for directions and when biking.

Did I need it? No. Was it worth the $200 I got it for used. Yes.

It's nice to be outside again even if it's not really warm yet. It's also nice to have a garage with a roof where our porch furniture did not get ruined over the winter.

My parents chimney fell over. I'm glad it wasn't me helping my dad because he would have never believed it wasn't my fault.

It makes me wonder what would happen if my chimney's fell over.

There is this creepy little room under the stairs. the spiders are winning the war with scooters.

When (e:hodown) was in town the week before last we took Zooey to the botanical gardens. Its so nice when it's sunny in there and it's cold outside. Zooey pulled her teeth out for the tooth fairy money. I hear it's $5 now.
