I’m trying out Remember the Milk. I don’t really know if I want another time management tool in my life, but we’ll see. So far I really like how you can type in fuzzy dates and it gets them right. 🙂

I’ve been using Don’t Break the Chain to bring in good habits and get rid of old habits. It’s a website that helps you keep track of what you’re doing daily. For example, I want to do sit-ups every night. If I do my sit ups, I mark off the day. After a few days, […]
Make your house smell good for cheap
Posted in Personal on Mar 27th, 2008
This is my first Ask Metafilter question. I want to know what’s a good, cheap way to make your apartment/house/dwelling smell better. It’s not necessarily covering up or removing bad odors, but just making it smell good for cheap. There are many air fresheners, but they may not be made of the best chemicals and […]
I guess sometimes you just have to get things done. In a short amount of time. Like, one night. But I feel pretty decent today, and I’m glad I’m not rushing to turn in my project at 6pm tonight.
I don’t think I’ve posted this before. A reminder: If you use a USB drive, stick a text file in the root directory called “IF FOUND” and then put in your contact information (and maybe reward info?). Whether you get your drive back or not depends on the soul who found it, but at least […]
I was thinking about renaming my blog (or maybe starting another one?) all about the good things in life (bah, it sounds cheesy). I think it’s good to focus on some of the nice things instead of the bad ones all the time. Here’s a nice thing I found recently: a free online countdown timer […]

I’ve added some widgets on the side here. First is Twitter, which for the longest time I thought “how stupid!” but I’m going to try it out. I think it’d work a lot better if I had unlimited texting. The second, and more important in my opinion, are my del.icio.us bookmarks. I love del.icio.us and […]
I love these videos

Best place to get your oil changed
Posted in Personal on Mar 3rd, 2008
It’s good to see a company get it right…taking something that is usually unpleasant and making it a pleasant situation for their customers. Like changing your oil…it can be a miserable experience if you don’t have anything to do, but at Janzen’s Toyota, it’s not that bad. Prices are reasonable, and the customer waiting area […]
