Do what I do--email them to yourself.
Depending on what phone service you have, it might ask you if you want to send the picture to your album online. Then you can save the image and move it to photobucket..y'know, like that.

Or, if your phone's got the Mp3 player, you might be able to send it to your computer through the hookup there, I dunno. Mine has that kinda thing, but I haven't really messed with it.

I'm not saving myself any money for when I'm living on my own and ROTF toys come out:

Doujin Work DVD 2- No manga with this one, boo.
Love Hina Complete Collection- Finally broke down and bought it. Will have to make time to watch it soon. The term 'Complete Collection' is misleading, it only includes the TV series. Presumably a set with the Spring Special, Christmas Special, and Love Hina Again will be out sometime later.
Ichiroh! Vol. 1- Completely random purchase because it had cute cover art, and hey, it's been a while since I impulse bought manga. It's a'ight so far.

My phone requires me to upgrade my plan to even be able to email pics. I need to root around for a USB cable, assuming one fits the non-standard jack. Still, I can make prank calls and texts.

And.....

Iron Grenadier/Viper comic pack

Uh-oh.

So...hauls today is some comics!

Secret Six # 9 Easily my favorite DC comic right now, just sayin'. There's action and laughs, and Deadshot. Really, it's the Deadshot that sold me, the fact that the other characters are entertaining is a bonus. Plus, this book makes me like Bane. Bane! Also, this is sort of a "Battle for the Cowl" tie-in, where Batman villians Catman and Bane fight a mass kidnapping in Gotham to pay respect to thier fallen foe, while arguing about which of the two want to be the new Batman the least. Also, their assisted by Ragdoll, "The He/She wonder". Ragdoll's kinda disturbing, but gets funnier the longer the book goes.

Captain Britian and MI-13 # 13...and this is becoming my favorite Marvel book right now. This and Hercules, anyhow. So here, awesome Marvel Dracula is invading England from his castle on the moon with a magic ship. Like, ship with sails and like that. Bad scene for the characters here. True Fact: this book makes me like Blade, which is even more amazing than me liking Bane, really. Seriously, at this rate, someone's gonna do a version of, like, Gambit or something that I like...

Lockjaw and The Pet Avengers #1 Straightforward enough. The Inhuman's dog Lockjaw gathers together a group of superpowered animals to gather the lost Infinity Gems. See, it's not hard to make good comics. This book's all-around awesome, and gets bonus points for including Speedball's super-powered cat, and Ms. Lion on the team. Yeah, Aunt May's dog Ms. Friggin' Lion.

The Umbrella Academy: Dallas #6 I'm no fan of My Chemical Romance, really, but I gotta say, that fella can write the hell outta some comics. Highly recommended for anyone that likes their books with a bunch of absurd and a fair amount of awesome.

Pretty sure I put my phone number up on at least one site in the past trying to find band members, so a little digging might turn something up.

Shit, I never went back to the comic shop to pick up Atomic Robo. The damn thing is in Indiana, and now I work in Altoona. Grargh.

Picked up a movie Incinerator still priced at 50% off thanks to stickers not being removed, and since I only previously owned a test-shot, slightly different from production. spinnyspinnyspinny. I love me some Incinerator.

Also ROTF Soundwave. At 25% off, yay for vouchers! The Movie Preview figures officially come out here tomorrow, but some stores have leaked early.

Quick run-down on Sounds for those considering him:

- Plentiful articulation, unfortunately no wrists, so sideways fists if you bend his elbows.
- The feet are especially nice, individually moving toes and heels plus ankle swivels.
- Transformation is a bit more involved than it looks, but very vague.
- Nothing holds together in any mode, at all. Needed faaaar more pegs to work.
- Alt. modes look like nothing at all, and suck.
- Ravage missile is cute.

An acceptable purchase at 25% off, but a really average toy. The Protoforms from the first movie preview were better. Ah well, at least he's niftier than the retooled NewBee, that looks rather awful.

Saw Star Trek with my friends last night (thoughts...later), and also picked up some Mangabooks:

Higurashi~When They Cry vol. 3: Cotton Drifting Arc 1- The numberings on this series are gonna confuse the HELL outta some people. One of my friends was already a victim.

Headed to King Of Prussia, an enormous mall in Philadelphia, because we were in the area for a family function with my aunt. Armed with ten dollars, I seeked out the comic shop...only to find that anything worth buying was at least $15 to $20. Bogus! But I did manage to dig around in a 50% off TPB bin and find IDW's Target: 2006 TPB for ten bucks. So I picked that up, because I love me some good UK comics.
