I can see my house from here! [Google]
So I just noticed that Google Maps updated their satellite images changed, as well as now having covered a huge part of San Diego for street view. Granted, the last time I checked was well over 6 months ago so this update may not be as recent as I think it is.

Having a recession-proof job… Check!
So I ran across a list of recession-proof jobs. Seeing as how I work on computers (or more specifically, the internet) I seem to be fairly secure.
Trying to pick a career? Some of the top jobs were:
- Engineer
- Computers/High Technology
- Entertainment
- Medical (Nurse, Pharmacist, Physical Therapist, etc)
The cool thing about these jobs is that if you do well, they pay well. Read the whole list here.
Here’s a cool book you might buy, written by a guy who knows more about this than me!

Another online diet tracker
A good friend of mine is getting married in December. What a great motivator for me to get in shape!
I’ve been experimenting different ways for me to actually get serious about losing some pounds before the December 20th (the wedding date). I recently found a new diet and exercise tracker called Gyminee, so I am trying that one out.
See what you think for yourself at Gyminee.com

Disemvowel Wordpress Plugin
I read an interesting article on the TIME website about disemvoweling. Someone at the Wordpress website thought it would be cool if someone made a plugin for it.
So I did!
You can download it here: Disemvowel
It’s super simple, just install it and activate it through your Plugins section on your Wordpress blog, and it filters your comments!

I forgot to wear shoes today
Today wasn’t particularly rushed. I slept a little later than I wanted, I suppose, but not so much that I panicked when I woke up.
I got out of bed, got ready for the day, checked my emails, and leisurely got in my car and drove away. I even remembered to bring a lunch!
Then I got to work and went to slip on my sandals to wander into the outside world. Feeling around with my feet rendered no results, so I went to search for them with my hands, and then my eyes, and then I realized with a sinking feeling… there were no sandals.
I got all the way to work completely shoeless!
No matter, who needs shoes anyways? So here I am, working at my desk, with no shoes. Silly me.
