Inspirational quotes

The cleaning crew at my office– which consists of two teenage girls– has been leaving little inspirational quotes on sticky notes.

Smart appliances

La and I were at Lowe’s today and I noticed a “smart” refrigerator. One of the doors had a huge touchscreen display on it.

I drew a smiley face in the “Family Hub” area, and thought that was definitely worth the $3,000 price tag. There was an option to take a photo of the food inside and label everything with expiration dates… a feature that is probably cool for about two days and then becomes tiresome. Best of all, apparently you can listen to music (via Pandora) on your fridge. Because hey, who wouldn’t want that?

Next to the fridge was a smart oven that advertised wireless networking. I guess that solves the age-old mystery about “did I leave the oven on?” after you leave home.

I’m a big fan of technology, but I’m just not sure a musical fridge and a wifi oven are high on my list.

Band names

Last night I told Zack we should think of a cool band name… just in case we find ourselves creating a band one day. He came up with

Rejected Kidney

which is the best band name I’ve heard in a long time. At least now we’re set for that one day.
