Digitally Green or Just Digital?


November 19th, 2008

So, big surprise – I had to pay a bill today. And I mean I had to pay it today, because it’s due tomorrow. Why did I wait until the last minute to address this? Because I got this bill in the mail, and physical mail and I don’t exactly jive.

Any chance I get, I sign up to pay bills online and opt out of any paper mailings. You may be thinking, oh that’s great she cares about the environment. But honestly? I don’t really think about the trees so much. To me, paper mail is like spam – I probably won’t open it, I don’t like it, I usually throw it away.

I’m sure I’m not alone as a young person who would choose inbox over mailbox, but I’m curious about the reasoning behind it. Are my cohorts more concerned about making green choices, or have we just grown up and grown accustomed to digesting information on a screen rather than on paper?

Maria, Repcor, Alexa, Julia, Yianni, Sandy, Tibbon, Ben, Pam, Giannii, what do you think? More mature people, feel free to chime in too.

10 Things I Thought About Today


November 11th, 2008

1. Why does it have to feel oh, so cozy under the covers when you need to get up in the morning?

2. We all need to be more grateful to the people who help us.

3. The Real Housewives of Atlanta are kind of horrid but still addictive.

4. We’re more fragile than we think.

5. I appreciate my parents’ support more than I could ever truly convey.

6. Beaks get a party going.

7. I have weird dreams.

8. Greg is the cutest, and I’m a very lucky girl. Gremanda rules.

9. Sometimes I miss having blond hair.

10. Checking things off my to-do list makes me feel powerful.

Bacon Tastes Like YouTube


September 30th, 2008

Bacon + weird = the following. These videos are weird and silly–I have no idea what sort of viral campaign they’re for, but sometimes that doesn’t matter. Sometimes you just like watching weird ish cuz you enjoy weird ish.

FACT: The giant strip of Bacon hitchhiking reminds me of last Christmas when I saw a man dressed as Grover from Sesame Street hitchhiking at home near my parents’ house. Nothing like that to get you in the holiday spirit.

You can thank Mr. Brian Solis for sharing these gems with me, and thus, you.
