Isn't it funny that I can write "googled" and like 95 percent of the population will know what I'm talking about?! Anyway, this week's Ventage Tuesday is brought to you by Stephanie, who encouraged us to take a look back at our internet past to find out what in the world we have been searching for! I found this to be a bit harder than I anticipated, mostly because I have this obnoxious internet obsession, and I visit WAY too many websites everyday...thus making it a rather drawn out process to look through my history! And...I've also realized...I'm pretty boring. There is nothing very surprising or astounding on this list, but I'm a team player, so I'll play along!! So here you have it - 5 things I've googled in the last month:
1. NPR Articles. I listen to NPR in the car, and I tend to only hear bits and pieces of what they talk about, thanks to my chatty little co-pilots. So, I keep a mental list of all the articles I want to read and check them out later when I have a chance. Here was a recent one: Young Girls May Get More Teaching Time from Parents than Boys Do. An interesting read...
2. Song Lyrics. I google song lyrics a LOT. I mean, I am the girl that watched 27 Dresses and said, "wait a minute, you mean it really ISN'T electric boobs?!" I tend to get song lyrics wrong all the time. So, thanks to Google I don't sound like a total fool when I'm belting out songs while speeding down the highway with my windows open.
3. Michigan. We spent Mother's Day in Michigan, and I think I googled about 30 different things: restaurants, times things opened, the weather, directions...you name it, I googled it! Where would be without Google?? Lost and hungry on the side of the road, I'm sure!!
4. Hippie Mom Stuff: Ring Sling, Vinegar to Kill Weeds, Refill Swiffer Bottle, Vitamix vs. Ninja, Vinegar BumGenius, Upspring Baby (don't get me started on that one!), Pressure Points, Newborn HepB, Post Pregnancy Essential Oils. You know...all that stuff to try and maintain my hippie mom status while I'm chugging down my Dr. Pepper. ;)
5. Internet Stalker. No, I didn't actually google the words "internet stalker." ;) But, I kind of am one, ha! I would say the vast majority of my google searches are looking for people or their blogs. I won't say WHO I was looking for...but just know...it might have been YOU. ;)
If you'd like to peek into the mind of the Ventage girls, be sure to check out Angie, Barb, Stephanie, and Katrina to see what THEY have googled in the past month!! :)
