Fast goes the week

I took an internet "Fast" this week. I am a bit ADHD, OCD and whatever else is out there that means you can't pay attention very well. I limited myself to checking a few sites and anything that was work related. No Facebook, News Sites, Pleonast, Etc. I only used Wikipedia and Dealnews.com. I did pretty well. I spent a little too much free time on Wikipedia that was against the spirit of my attempt but over all pretty well. ( I also used Facebook twice to contact people but I didn't linger so I didn't count that. ) It is funny tonight though as I logged back on that all the sites I would check just don't seem that important at the moment. Hopefully this will help me get more things done.

    a little internet sabbatical is always a healthy thing, i think. and i agree, whenever i pick it back up, the sites i always visited dont seem as interesting as they did before, or i can't think of anything i want to look up. TV is kindof the same with me. i dont know what i want to watch or anything like that, so i usually just watch the weater report and then turn i tback off:p

Kanye West

I have been happily boycotting Kanye West for around 5 years now and I invite you all to join in!

    If it weren't for his little outburst, I'd have no clue who he is. Still don't, really.

    I will never forget his speech during the Hurricane Katrina thing. The look on Mike Myers' face was priceless.

    does it count as a 'boycott' if I just don't like his music?

    I only hear about the guy when he does something crazy like this. We do not listen to him in our house though.

    The only time I felt sorry for him was when his mom died.

    I found a frog in my shoe when I went to mow the yard. Scared me real bad. I hope the rat has moved on.

Married with a small child

Listening to Joanna Newsom on my laptop in bed. Eventually Miranda will like her album. Eventually.
  • ed
    i don't know who that is....so out of touch. Australia has a pretty cool musician you may or may not like....kate miller hiedke.

    problem is....iTunes doesn't have much of her stuff...but she is very different and very cool....imho.

    I like your title. Feels kind of weird, huh? Don't worry about asking your parents about a place. We'll probably just get a room. Can't wait to see you guys!

    That's awesome that he's sleeping so well. Cora sleeps about 6 or 7 hours a night, Not too bad - especially for a breastfed baby. Still, how I miss my late saturday mornings!

    I saw your name lit up in white and couldn't figure out who was named Brian that I had on my friend's list. You need to post more often, brother! :)

    Congratulations! Praising God for a safe entrance into the world.

    You are very welcome for dinner. I remember that not having to worry about dinner right after bringing home a baby made things so much easier. I just hope it was all edible. :)

    Yeah, I thought she was coming early too! Guess God is teaching me about patience. I am not a very good student!
