My headphones keep breaking

This is pissing me off. I've gone through four pairs of earbuds in the past 6 months, and I don't even listen to that much music. One ear will always stop playing sound, and then a few weeks later the other one goes. I'd steal them from Walmart if I could be sure the only ones losing money were the manufacturers and not Walmart. None of my other electronic things with wires ever seem to break.

I figure if there's any place where someone knows where to get unbreakable earphones, it's this blog. Does anybody have any suggestions?

Who makes them? Cheaper brands tend to be worse made... might be better off buying a nice pair of Shure's or Etymotics and if they break having them replaced under warranty.

I'm not even sure, I generally just pick one at random from the Walmart selection. I can't imagine they're too high quality but the last ones set a new low, clocking in at 2 1/2 weeks... I know nearly nothing about good earphones

As a total side note, Walmart has done some evil shit. Probably wouldn't be morally wrong to steal from them.

How to Be Happy. Always.

Ok folks... I'm gonna break it down for you Dr. Phil style today, and talk about happiness.

Now, first of all - I don't see why happiness is always priority number one. "Do whatever makes you happy", they say. "Yeah, but is she HAPPY?". Who says this is the holy grail? Personally, I think giving Tynan presents should be the end goal. "Do whatever makes Tynan get more presents" and "Yeah, but is she giving Tynan presents?" both sound pretty sweet to me.

But we live in a world where happiness is number one. They don't ask if happiness makes you money, but if money makes you happy. So, let's get happy.

Not Following Through

There's been a lot of chatter on the comments recently about me not following through, most of it deserved. Throughout my life one of my struggles has been to focus on one thing and follow it through. I used to be totally incapable of it, but over the years have gotten better. There are a lot of things that I have followed through with (my diet, writing this blog, etc.) as well as plenty that I haven't.

Once in a while I feel, for whatever reason, that I've conquered it, and I announce it to the world. While I'm on the topic of admitting faults, another is that I tend to prematurely announce things sometimes. As a reader, you already know that.

I understand your frustration when you read about something I say I'm going to do, get excited about seeing it happen, and then it falls off the radar. If it's any consolation, I'm acutely aware of these things and am similarly frustrated.
