Get this

I’ve been a bit crabby and inefficient lately and this is not due to my monthly visitor, thanks. And I’ve been getting these sporadic, painful headaches. (I do get migraines, but it has been a while and these headaches aren’t as bad as a migraine.)

More than ever, I’ve been doing things right for so long now – yoga at least twice a week, drinking tons of water, exercising, eating very healthy, getting a decent night’s sleep…so what’s the deal?

First, I just thought it was the influx of ‘stupid people’ in my life. You know the whole, ‘your environment’ affects your mood type of thing. Or maybe I’m just stressed from work or some crap like that.

Well, I had a doctor’s appointment and get this - It’s caffeine withdrawal!

But now that I think about it, I stopped drinking Starbucks a few weeks ago. I had no reason or desire to stop. It wasn’t a conscience decision. I just stopped. And if you know me, you KNOW that I am never at work without a Grande Chai (with a straw of course, because it stops tooth decay, my dentist says so…) Anyone else gone through this? It’s weird.

Anyway, apparently the only way to ‘get better’ is to drink a little caffeine or take a Tylenol.

Have to go – need some coffee to calm my headache.

Why...

  • do people pick their nose when they are driving? Newsflash...we can SEE you...
  • is Jenna Bush more articulate then her dad?
  • do people really care about Britney Spears so much? I just don't get it. Let the girl live her life. Seriously, can't the girl go to Target or shave her head in peace?
  • do manufacturers develop fast consumer cars when there is always a speed limit?
  • do people not understand that the word 'pimp' is now a synonym for making something 'sick, phat, or tight?' To 'pimp' something is to embellish it.
  • do people look at me funny when I make fun of Indians (dots not feathers)?

Thin is in....

Okay, hopefully this post doesn't make it on the list of PR announcements internally (like my post for the pink mouse). In case it does, I'll keep this post moderately positive. I have been quite MIA on my blog and antisocial for the past few months because I've been helping to launch these crazy new products at Kensington.

Honestly, they're pretty damn slick. And, I own a home now and need a bonus so dammit go buy some. (Preferrably from Amazon.com.)


The coolest product, I think, is this orange and/or black mouse that's wired and wireless. Seriously, it's wired and wireless. You open it up and it has a retractable cord (with a mini-usb plug). The USB receiver is stored under the mouse. You plug the cord in to the USB receiver. Check out the mouse demo. The other one that is cool is the desktop set. Here's the desktop demo for that one.

Also, we just launched this line of 'SlimBlade' mice. (Don't get me started on the name.) But the colors of these mice are classy. And well, that's all that matters, right? Oh and they work too. There's a mobile trackball mouse, mice that double as presenters, etc. But I like the 'Ice Blue' one because the color reminds me of a BMW that I will never have. Anyway, check out the microsite.

I promise, the products are pretty unique. No, I can't get you a freakin discount - buy it from Amazon you cheapo.
