Google Reader.  Pure Awesome.  When Erik told me about it I was skeptical, but then I tried it and now everything has changed.  All these blog posts just get delivered to you like you are the king of Idaho and the entire world is at your feet.  I can say that I have never experienced this height of luxury and I worry that I may never feel this level of excitement again. 

The Welcome Wagon.  Hymn Awesome.  This is a group that I bought a while ago but just started listening too.  it is really fun.  They do some really old hymns and cover songs in a folkish way and it is nice and pleasing to the ears as well as uplifting to the soul. 

Turning off the TV.  Productivity Awesome.  Apparently if you are not spending copious amounts of time watching TV you can do more productive things.  Since I have been watching less TV I have found much more productive things to do like… write pointless blogs…surf the interwebs… sit and be contemplative.  So maybe I am not more productive, but my time wasters are more varied, that is good right?
