There is a certain website out there in the land of internet that has caught on like a wildfire. Seriously. If I didn't have to work and/or people just gave me money to sit around all day to play on this website, I probably, maybe would. Okay, maybe not all day. Anyway, Pinterest is probably one of the biggest time sucks out there. And I mean that in the kindest of ways. Basically, it's a virtual pin board for anything crafty, holiday ideas, clothes you want to try, recipes that make you salivate just thinking about them. It takes the manual labor out of the equation. No scissors. No glue. No buying poster boards. For OCD people like me, Pinterest keeps it all stored in one spot and arranges any post into the category of my choosing.
Anyhow, the whole point of me sharing this, is that on one of my pin boards, there is a certain pin that has reached epic proportions. I mean for someone who isn't in the business of photography or doing anything creative as a full time job, it's pretty epic for me. Here is the pin from my "The Geek In Me" board:
This pin has reached 688 repins, 163 likes and 23 comments since I posted it just over a month ago. Again, for someone who has to work 40 hours a week, it amazes me that that many people have repinned such a silly thing. It makes me think 2 things: 1. wow...people don't have anything better to do? and 2. Man, I'm so cool. I can't wait to find another pin that gets that much attention.
To add to the list of things that I'm currently in love with:
anything and everything by Ennio Morricone including:
The Mission: Gabriel's Oboe
The Mission: The Falls
Sergio Leone Suite in it's entirety
Giuseppe Tornatore Suite in it's entirety
(look them up. I'm sure they're on youtube)
I Won't Give Up
by Jason Mraz
I'm not entirely crazy about the video, but the sentiments are amazing.
And....
Fix You
by Coldplay
as sung by Glee
And that, my friends, is the end.
Until next time.
