woooo mre blurbodoocery!!!! and tyrant!

How cool is this! I can't wait to see what you guys do with the office.

I'm excited to see things as they develop, especially since my home office/writing space is so tiny.

Funny, Cause I had trouble seeing the pictures posted this morning through my reader and came to the site directly and thought - huh, Verizon is all up in this shit. And then reading this post, it was like aha, and then I thought, where are the iphones crying in the corner? Are they for personal use and the androids for business? Are we(and by we, I mean you) not allowed to mention iphones with the new sponsor? If so, I gotta hand it to Verizon for their clever advertising. And I am looking forward to the new pics and updates of the office. PS Where is Leta? Can we get more Leta?

Excited that there will be more of Tyrant! Interesting sponsor for the iFreaks, but cool!

Funny that with all this design talk (and I LOVE design talk), my burning question is over the switch (addition?) to droid phones. And it seems I'm not the only one!

Not judging, just curious!

Tyrant has been added to my Flickr contacts & I can't wait to see how the office progresses.

Oh hell, I get excited over the thought of seeing how you're going to design this house. It's a gorgeous house, and again ~ not judging! ~ it just doesn't look like a house I would have envisioned for the Armstrongs. Too traditional maybe? So, I'm really curious to see how you can work your modern magic into the space, and I have no doubt you will!

I'm ridiculously excited about this, I'm not embarrassed to say. While your home reno/design work is always interesting, it's home office design that truly fascinates me (largely because I'll have to do it someday soon). I can't wait to get your take on things.

Heather,
I just want you to know that I covet your chin. I am a gal with chin issues. I hate my chin above all. I have NO chin. My chin just kind of blends into the rest of my neck, causing me to always look about 80 lbs larger than I actually am in photos. Thus, every time I'm called to wait outside the temple so that I can be in a family picture, I am distressed for two reasons instead of just one. (One reason is enough to deal with in this type of situation as I'm sure you well know.)
I have quite large (and in charge) girlfriends with reasonably shaped chins who look much thinner than I look in photos taken from the shoulders down. Life is unfair.

Every time I see Heather Armstrong's chin, I think: Now there's a girl with a chin that doesn't just blend into her neck, causing her to look about 80 lbs larger than she actually is in family photos (standing next to her three size 0 sisters in law. THREE. All size zero. Even with the extra layers of clothing. I'm not shitting you.)

Verizon asked if we would use the Droids as work phones. Personally, I was dying to check out a sweet Android phone and was very very happy when Heather agreed to use the Verizon phones for work. It's always good to see what else is out there and put it to use in real world situations. Ironically, it is an advertiser/sponsor who is giving us this opportunity and it is sweet. I'm not sure how much more "real" it is to use product x over product y, but I understand that some people might get jangled.

I've heard stories of people having multiple phones (business people, famous people) as a back up in times of serious negotiating or at an event where one carrier might be hammered over another one. This isn't that kind of a deal, but as a geek, I'm digging on the chance to put a cool phone to the test.

for the love of God and lost hikers, tell the people at Verizon that we need some cellular service in the Catskill Mountains of New York State! They won't listen!

I've had my Droid X for a week and a half and I LOVE IT.

@ Jon,
I totally agree about the back up phone. We found that out the hard way. My husband is working contract for a company, had a VERY important phone interview with another and wouldn't you guess it..AT &T dropped the call...TWICE! My husband was livid and that is when Verizon first came up for us. If he gets that job ( Thank God they forgave the drop and interviewed anyway)..we will have to switch. So, I am very interested in how it compares to the IPhone. Seriously, you will know first hand having them there to compare.Keep us posted:)

i predict you are going to love your droids. seriously, i looooooooove mine. love.it! my only complaint... battery life isn't great. other than that, the phone is freakin' amazing!

Yay, design porn! Can't wait:-)

Man, what an unbelievable coincidence; we're experiencing almost the same exact thing. Yeah, we're moving from Boston to Philly at the end of this month, and we found a sponsor who's helping to make the move possible. Perhaps you've heard of them; they're called: My Wife's Parents, Inc.

Apparently, they really want their daughter to live near them again.

Unfortunately, their "sponsorship" is actually more like a "loan."

I really need to get more readers.
