So today I decided to switch from my Nokia 1020 to a Samsung Galaxy S4 just to see if I like it. My boss said I can hang onto both until I'm sure I'm happy.

That has made today terribly unproductive. I've spent the whole time setting up the S4 and messing around with it. It looks like fun so far.

Here's a picture of both our Siamese cats. You've met Mouse before and the other kitty in this picture is Skunk. Skunk is so named because as a kitten she had a dark stripe running down her back. She also had terrible gastro intestinal problems that could stink up an entire living room in a matter of seconds. Thankfully she grew out of that.

Skunk is my wife's favourite cat. She follows my wife around everywhere and she is very talkative.

Today's pandas are courtesy of my new phone.

That is one of the cutest cat pictures I've ever seen. I want a Galaxy S4 as well, they look awesome. Might opt for a mini one myself, though. We saw a guy at Chili's last semester and could see his texts clearly from a decently distant table. Also, seems like something that big would annoy me, as I'm one for keeping everything I need in my pockets. 

I have this sudden urge to watch Aristocats. I miss our cats, but not the smells they could create ...

I like the 5" screen but I can see where some people would like something smaller. Funny thing is that the Nokia 1020 while smaller in screen size at 4.5" is a bigger phone.

The S4 mini is 4.3" which is very slightly bigger than my current S2

Well, no 1020 for me then, as the ability to fit something into my pockets is the biggest concern for me when it comes to what I consider too-large phones.

You're gonna have to change your name to pandaman soon Smile

LOL. Feb will be over soon and pandas will be put away for another year.

I'm going to have a panda named Peter in my game.

My cat lets worse farts than my dog, and every time she farts her little kitty SBDs, she looks at the dog. I think she's trying to pass the blame on to him, but I know better.

Skunk and Mouse are very cute, but I think your tortie is gorgeous. I could be biased, though.

Those cats are adorable!

I like your cat picture. The cats have a "what's the human doing look"

Looks like you have a fun choice on the phones. Android vs Windows. I went through the same dilemma a month ago because we are changing carriers and I thought about going back to Android with the new Nexus 5, but I'm sticking with the walled garden and going iPhone 5s.

I had to wake Skunk up to take the picture. I don't think she was too happy with me.

We were given the choice of a 5s or the Nokia 1020. I just couldn't stand the tiny screen on the iPhone plus I don't want my shit tied to iTunes and, well, I'd feel dirty. LOL

My wife really wants one of those phones, moreso upon seeing them in her korea dramas. They even have those nifty fold over covers that you can use to cover the screen after dialing. Sadly she doesn't want a contract with her phone and to get it prepaid would cost her over 500 for the phone itself. One day perhaps, one day.
