Have you ever been out running errands and found something you'd like to purchase later, but didn't have paper to write yourself a note? How about needing to do something later, but by the time you get home, you can't remember what it was? Now there's a awesome new service out there called BrainCast. Once you sign up for the FREE service, you can call a toll-free number you can call to leave yourself messages that will be forwarded to your email inbox. You can enter up to three phone numbers you'll be calling from and to which email you'd like those messages forwarded.

It's like that episode of "The New Adventures of Old Christine" where she calls her answering machine multiple times in the middle of the night to remind herself of stuff she needs to do that next day without having to have an answering machine! I just programmed my free number in to my phone. I'll let you all know how it works out.

I got an email this afternoon from a company I interviewed with waaaay back before I even lost my last job:

Hello LaDonna,
You interviewed with me here at XXXXXX XXXXXXXX a few months back and I wanted to check with you to see if you found a Graphics position or not. We will have an opening soon and I thought would inquire to see if you were available or still had an interest in doing Trade Show large format graphic design.

Dammit! This was slightly amusing yesterday what I got that phone message, but this is downright infuriating! So now that I've actually now have, all my past interviews are going to come out of the woodwork with offers of employment? Grrrrrrrr!

<sarcasm>OMG, I so didn't see this coming. I thought they'd be together forever.</sarcasm>

Yeah, right. I so saw this coming. Apparently, Britney Spears has filed for divorce from Kevin Federline. I wonder how many other women he plans to have kids with.

So, am I the only one glad that tomorrow is Election Day and the stupid political commercials and phone harassment will stop for a bit? Probably not. I have never been so disgusted by politics as I am right now. Let's face it. It's going to take more than changing which party is the majority to change the way things run. They're all corrupt. They're all liars. They all have their own best interests above that of their constituents. It's pathetic and all the screaming and name calling each side does towards the other solves nothing.

OK, I've seen a theme around at least a couple of wordpress blogs that looks like a manila file folder. I can't remember whether I saw it on a fellow postie's site or if it was on my Thursday Thirteen rounds this week. I'm kicking myself for not writing down where I saw it or bookmarking it. I'd really like to use it for my weight loss blog. If you know what the heck I'm talking about, could you point me to where it is? Thanks!
