Breakfast Bloggage: Dell’s party and the giggly little camel

Kix and keyboards, Wheaties and WordPress, Corn pops and coding – Is there any finer a combination than cereal and computers?

If you look at my be-crumbed workspace , you will see that I think NOT.

Another fine combo? Tunes and Toys (in so many ways).

Music and technology go together like peanut butter and jelly. Like movies and popcorn. Like Lauren O’Neil and literary triptychs.

As I mentioned a few weeks ago, Dell brought Down with Webster on board to perform for fans at their sick “Ultimate End of Summer Party“.

Last night, it all went down without a hitch.

I was lucky enough to score a VIP pass to the party (Did I mention that I love Dell lately? ‘Cause I do.) but unfortunately, I got caught up at work in the busy city and couldn’t make it to St. Cats in time for the band’s performance.

Woe is me I’m so woe.

Fortunately, my homegirl sent me some pics of all the contest winners rocking out so I didn’t feel completely disconnected.

I was bummed that I couldn’t be there, but I’ve got to admit that even just seeing pictures of the fans going wild made me smile.

There’s something so purely positive about fandom in general. Whether it’s sports, music, comedy, gadgets – whenever I see people getting fanatical I feel a little bit fanatical too.

Then again, I’m a bit of a fangirl by nature. My head explodes on the daily.

Last night I absolutely lost my marbles over this font and, I don’t know if you can really be a bona fide fan of laughing camels, but I’ve been LOLing over this all morning.

I may even compulsively scour the internet for advice on how to buy a camel in Canada today. Maybe.

Our love is like water, ticklish camel.

I’ve got to go blowdry my hair and get to work now. Tonight I’m getting it CHOPPED! (my hair, not my work.)

I still have no idea what I’m going to do with it. Hopefully the stylists at this trendy salon everybody’s been telling me to hit up will be able to help out with that.

I’m leaning towards a long bob, like the 2008 Nicole Richie cut I’ve been loving on for years:

But I also like the sort of messy platinum look Gwen’s been rocking lately, since it’s pretty much exactly what I have right now (complete with the long uneven bangs) except shorter.

What do y’all think?
