Most influential? Really?

I was dismayed to discover while sipping on my fancy-over-priced lemonade at the campus Starbucks, now titled "the only place Karen can study Starbucks," that Time Magazine has crowned 2009's Most Influential Person as non-other than a man named "Moot." This 21 year old started a website like flikr.com or photobucket.com as an image based bulletin board called 4chan.org. The website may get around 13 million hits a day but is it just me or did we just vote in our very first BLACK PRESIDENT?! Oh oh! Maybe Oprah should be 2009's Most Influential person for helping young women in Africa to raise their voice against crime and poverty. Even a better idea-- what about hunting down the person or animal who's body mutated the regular flu making it the Swine Flu and make THEM The Most Influential Person of 2009?! As much as I am on the internet blogging, reading the news, chatting with friends on facebook.com, or taking long walks on the beach, I somehow was left out of the loop on this one. The most entertaining thing is the fact that this "Moot" character doesn't actually like to get his picture taken...just find the irony in that one.

Happy belated Earth Day everyone, did anyone plant a tree? If you haven't had a chance to plant a tree...just go hug one. Happy Spring!

Suck it-- rain!!!

I am in Columbus for the weekend, it has been a wonderful trip so far. The kids, Dawn, and I went to Hybanks park up off of 23/High Street for 2 hours to skip rocks in the river, play on the kid structure, meet new people, and walk a few 10th of a mile. The clouds kept rolling in and it wasn't until we started heading back toward the car that it began raining cats and dogs. I miss them already just knowing that I am leaving tomorrow to go back to Bowling Green for the last few weeks of school.
The Summer plan so far is to work in Knoxville wherever I can, odd jobs, babysitting, dogsitting, old-peoplesitting, housesitting, anythingsitting... I am looking forward to seeing mom more often and exploring more of Knoxville.
Anyway, we are watching Twilight tonight and just relaxing after a great day outside.
Suck it--rain!!!
Peace.

Oh what an idear!

True dumpster divers!

In theory...I suppose it isn't a bad idea...at least it is eco-friendly! I will stick to my granola bars and oatmeal for breakfast fresh out of the store each day.
