iphone Iphone IPHONE!!!

I gots it! Finally :) And with it comes to overwhelming need to download more and more apps (especially the abundant free ones!). And with that comes the need to gush about which apps you've found that are just amazeballs. Forgetting the standards (facebook, angry birds [DIE PIGS DIE!!!!!], weather channel etc.) these are my new apps
:-D

Mixology: Never again will I stand at a bar and say "Give me something with tequila in it!" With Mixology I can search for drinks with tequila as an ingredient. Or browse by type of drink. Or find a local bar. Or get new drink recipes. Or get random facts about different alcohols. Perfect for a girl who loves to use her liver.

Talking Baby Hippo (0.99): Say anything or play any song into the mic and the baby hippo repeats it back in its baby hippo voice (dance included). 20 minutes ago I was rolling on the floor after we made Sarah's hippo sing Born This Way.

RMaker: Making your own ringtones for iphone is RIDICULOUSLY complicated!!! Fortunately, this was easy to use...once I broke down and read the tutorial (included in the app)

Flashlight: Not only does it have the ever-so-lame-but-ever-so-popular white screen flashlight, but it turns on the iphone 4's crazy bright LED flash (which really is like an actual flashlight. It will also flash emergency colors and it has an S.O.S. program that will message for help in morse code. Nifty.

Translator: With Sarah and mine's limited knowledge of French and Spanish (respectively) we tried this out and IT WORKS!!! Not only does it seem to translate (at least basic phrases) fairly accurately, but it also will speak them for you! No more butchering pronunciation!! Plus it has a bunch of languages I have never spoken or probably even heard spoken around me like Estonian, Swahili, Hatian Creole, Catalan, etc.

Coin Flip: After watching last weeks the Bachelorette Sarah and I decided coin flips make life way more exciting, but who carries change anymore? Now you don't have to. Ridiculously simple app, but that just means it's easy to use.

The Moron Test: So much entertainment. There's also a version you pay for but I'm cheap.

Quotes: Probably my favorite useless app. It's thousands of iphone wallpapers with pictures and quotes to either use or just browse through (or email to friends nonstop)

iBooks: Granted, you have to buy most of the books if you want to read them, but some (Paradise Lost, Winnie The Pooh, Secret Garden, Peter Pan etc.) are free by public domain. Good way to pass the time in a waiting room. Less likely to make people stare than playing Angry Birds and yelling "GRAVITY!!!!!"

IMDB: For those times when you just can't wait to know where you know what's-his-name from, and don't want to use your data plan to access the internet (I have mine turned off and almost only use wireless)

I have others too, but none I've been able to use yet.

In other exciting news: Running/Biking is going very well! I love living green. I wish I never had to drive anywhere! Like these people.
I am convinced that there is something that happens in your brain when you exercise that makes you happpier when you look in the mirror....even though you know logically that nothing has actually changed yet.
