I decided a little over a month ago to cut caffeine out of my diet which wasn’t easy. I love coffee and was a faithful Pepsi drinker since I was 16 working at Safeway. When I worked in the bakery the cake decorator and I would take turns each day buying Pepsi for one another and that is how my addiction started. I love Pepsi but it is really bad for you so I’ve recently been getting into decaffeinated and low caffeine teas. Pat and I spent a good chunk of change and time at Teavana in the mall. I must have sucker written across my forehead when I walked in because when I walked out my wallet was a lot lighter. Don’t get me wrong though the women who helped us pick out the teas was very knowledgeable and I learned a lot so now that I have the basics down I want to save some money. I first heard about Adagio.com from Kevin Rose on Diggnation and most recently from Rebecca at work. I just bought some nice tea samples including the Revision3 teas custom made by the folks over at Revision3 (I can be bought people…I can be bought…marketing works). If you want to check out what they have to offer, head over to Adagio today.
One of my favorite companies, Amazon.com just acquired Zappos.com today which came as quite a shock. I had heard rumors that Amazon was going to purchase Netflix but Zappos.com and Amazon.com never crossed my mind. Since Amazon.com already has endless.com it came quite a surprise. I wonder if they are going to shut down endless.com and just stick with Zappos.com now? The video above is from Jeff Bezos founder of Amazon.com about the acquisition.
Daycare is closed a few days a year and yesterday and today happened to be one of those days it was closed. I picked up Tyler at a park and we spent a good hour this morning messing around with sticks, going on the slides, looking at dogs, and checking out the squirrels. SQUIRREL! (Up humor…you have to see the movie). It is a really nice park and an older community. It was fun to see older couples walking in the neighborhood and park. I’m not ready to retire yet but man was it a nice relaxing morning just following Tyler around at the park. To tell you the truth I think I might have had more fun that he did! The video isn’t the most exciting thing in the world but grandparents and friends may enjoy it. Tyler is a well documented little man. I showed him the video when I put it on my PC and he seemed to approve so hope you do as well.
