4 years in a row...

I know there are some people who are expecting me to comment on the Ohio State/Michigan game on Saturday. What can I say - Michigan was once again outplayed. It's become a sad state of affairs. And now Michigan will be stuck with some sad non-January 1st bowl game - which if recent history has anything to say about it - they will probably lose. Sorry, I'm a little pessimistic right now.

And just in case anyone is worried that I went all day Saturday without being teased/ridiculed for being a Michigan fan, here's a picture of what I had to put up with:











Yes, that's an Ohio State jersey, turtleneck, blanket and teddy bear. And yes, he went out and bought himself that bear. It's just not right people.

Thing #35 Mini-Blogs

All right, I read over the info about these "mini-blogs," but I didn't sign up for any of them. I suppose they're useful, and it's good to know about them, but I would never use it. I like my good ol' regular blog, plus, I'm just too wordy to limit myself to a few words. Besides, if I want to make plans with friends, I'll just pick up the phone and call them, or send them an e-mail or text message. Plus, I don't get the "following" thing. Maybe this would be clearer if I actually signed up for an account and used it. But, I really don't need any more accounts that I'm not gonna use. For now, I think I've accomplished enough by learning of it's existence. I actually had never heard of these before. Onward and upward...

Thing #34

I signed up for Fitday and also looked at Nutridiary, but I wasn't impressed with either. For the last year I've been using Discovery Health's National Body Challenge website to track my fitness and weightloss goals. I find this site much easier to use. I had trouble with Fitday trying to find how to enter the foods I'd eaten. When i went to enter the ceral I had for breakfast, it wasn't even on the list - and it's not like it's some crazy off brand. Life Cereal - not the cinnamon kind, just the plain. They had the cinnamon on the list but no regular life. So, I checked them out, but prefer the Discovery site.

Thing #33

Lots of good time wasting fun at Mr. Picassohead. Check out my lovely work of art that took just two minutes to create (and you know how quality things will be in that short amount of time):

Mr. Picassohead was the best. The string and snowflake ones were kind of boring. The sand art was ok - kept me interested for about 2 minutes longer than the string and snowflake ones. Moving on...

Thing #32 - Omnidrive

Am seeing great potential for this - however, can't get it to load. It just sits there and does nothing and doesn't allow me to do anything. Not happy - suppose will try later at home.

Thing #31 Plaxo

Well, I set up a Plaxo account and imported my contact list from gmail. I also put in one entry on the calendar. I don't think I'll be using this much. I'm either just tired or it's not feeling very user friendly to me. Besides, I have my work calendar book that I carry around with me always and has all my appointments - work and otherwise. I also have a Dell Axim (Dell's version of a PalmPilot), that I use occasionally to keep track of stuff, plus it fits neatly in my purse. So, I tried it - but it's not for me.
