www.google.com/ig and Google Desktop are now two of my favorite intarweb gadgets.

I swear google is going to become self-aware at some point.

i hate to do lists.
check your life off one passing moment at a time.

I am not exactly sure how to respond to this. I put "Give Cat Flea Medicine" on the list so that my cat won't go crazy. Not sure if that really makes me face my mortality.

i hate to be such a pessmisit, i really usually am not, and honestly, at times, especially highly stressful-short-on-time times, i still will write to do lists. but sometimes, when i sit back and look at it, i think "how many more times will i do this before i die?" like, "how many more times will give flea medicine to my cat, before i die

pessimist*. i may be dyslexic?

yeah.. i think it's the fact that most of the items ive written on to do lists are either ideas ive had but never got around to (this is a huge source of frusturation for me. i often create things after long spells of boredom or isolation or relaxation, none of which i get anymore) or things i don't REALLY want to do, but have to (ie: turning forms in, paying taxes, fixing cars, obgyn). i look at this to do list and i see things i want to do so bad but can't because i have to do all this other bullshit i really fucking don't want to. THAT IS THE KEY to my hatred of to do lists.

I've found it is very uplifting to put "Make a to do list" at the top of the list. This allows me to check off the first thing immediately after completion of the list. Gives you a bit of motivation.

For a brief moment I was looking for a green thumbs up to digg your comment. Then I remembered I was on LiveJournal, not Digg.

And I love iGoogle, even if the lowercase "i" does remind me of Apple garbage. As far as Google Desktop....eh, I guess I can live with Vista gadgets. Especially the Seattle traffic map one. And the weather...and the post-its...

My computer is like an extension on my body. I would be absolutely devastated if it were severed from my life.

Love to hear about one of the defining moments in your life. Hearing how other people embrace, shun or just deal with opportunity is always a learning experience.
