Do you all remember in you life that people would tell you; “if you eat (fill in the blank) it will grow inside you.” I thought it was just a scare tactic brought on by Mothers and Grandmothers to make sure you didn’t eat things they worried about. But I never thought it would be true. Well for one guy it actually was true! He ate a pea and it when down the wrong pipe, into his lung and grew. Yes the pea grew in his lung, it’s that CRAZY! I know your thinking I’m nuts, but if you don’t believe me read the article here! You’ll be careful what you eat from now on huh.
Did you hear about this; the gal above quit her job earlier this week, and how did she do it? Well she took photos of her self with white board messages and sent them to her boss, and a few other co-workers! The most creative way to quit I have ever heard of.
I love how she gave her final say, said her piece and got outta there, the perfect revenge and now it gets splattered all over the Internet for a real zinger to her former employer. It was pretty brave, I say way to stand up for yourself! To read her full quitting speech go here, it’s fantastic!
This is a weird product, which is one reason why I had to share it with all of you! The photo alone gave me a chuckle and a what the double look. Check the website for more info on this truly odd product.
WIRED magazine put all my questions about one of my favorite, tasty treats to rest! They give you a detailed, and timed to perfection synopsis of all things Cheetos. And no it hasn’t scared me off from eating them either, in fact if I live near a factory I so want to work there and be their Cheetos tester. Now that’s the job! I mean being a Cheeto tester would be a pretty good gig, and after my years of growing up eating them I think I’m a professional already! Check out the full article here, to see for yourself how they create those little nuggets of goodness!
An article I recently read called Hooked on Gadgets, and Paying a Mental Price in the New York Times. I wanted to put the whole article in here for you all to read, but sadly it’s a bit too long but let me encourage you all to read it. Click here to read!
I saw this first hand at the very end of my cruise and honestly it made me sad. On our cruise there was no service, unless you wanted to pay the international price, My Mr and I opted out, we looked forward to LITERALLY detaching from the world and can I tell you it was FANTASTIC. Anyway back to the cruise, so while on our journey you would see people eating breakfast, dinner and lunch chatting and talking up a storm, YES REAL INTERACTION! The minute we got close enough to shore that people got reception the mood of the boat totally changed. As we walked around during breakfast it was quite, people were sitting right next to each other eye’s glued to the phone or device. I was amazed how noticeable it was, and how quickly it happened, the vacation was over and so was the interaction. This convinced me of one thing, NO DATA PLAN FOR ME. Yes I think they are fantastic and gosh oh so useful but I worry that I will start to neglect more important things (family, friends, etc) by making me escape into the world of my electronic device and forget anyone outside the small 3×3 screen, as I saw on my cruise. I know it’s happen to all of you, It’s happened to me, Your having a conversation and your feeling so engrossed and then one of the people picks up there cell phone and you disappear, convo is basically over because your no longer as important as the device in front of them, I mean doesn’t it kinda fell that way? Basically you lovely followers I worry that we are becoming so dependent on the stimuli of electronic devices that we are forgetting about just sitting in a room and talking to one another, devices are making it so that isn’t entertaining enough that we need more, you know like a shopaholic who needs stuff to make them happy now it’s a data-a-holic, is it really making people happy or just unsatisfied? I’m torn on the topic of technology, I guess even in this the word of wisdom is key, “Moderation in all things.”
I can’t get behind these belts. Recently I went to put one on, it was cute and colorful and matched my outfit. The perfect little hint of color and coordination I thought . . . I struggled with that dang thing for the rest of the day. It wouldn’t stay tight; it kept coming loose and simple looking a mess. Then it was a little long that it had a tail that couldn’t be tucked, without looking like a decon passing the sacrament with the too long belt looped around, you know exactly what I’m talking about! Such a poorly engineered piece of clothing, especially for a belt, I mean it it was holding up my pants I could have lost them multiple times during my day! So it was a mess and so useless and I thought I have 4 of these types of belts and come to think of it they all have this same problem! I decided then and there that I really dislike these belts! So I’m looking for other things to use these cute but otherwise useless belts for, ideas are welcome!
Ok you remember my post about these delish treat here right? Now that doesn’t mean I’m obsessed with Shrek, it just means I thought the treats were cool and so I bought them. These two couple have taken this SHREK thing to the limit! I mean come on it’s animation, they aren’t even real. Now while I just said that I was thinking, “but how many every day people refer to themselves on there wedding day as a Princess?” That’s true right! And most princesses that we grew up with were Disney animated, Ariel, Belle, Jasmine, Cinderella! So how far fetched is this whole thing really? Some people want to be princesses some want to be Shrek’ed! So hey if that’s was floats your boat, Go For It!
