…live while I’m alive

I recently made the wonderful 14 hour drive from NYC to ATL (driving the girlfriend to her internship with the C.D.C.). If you haven’t already done it, I’d urge you to. And if you already have, well… hell, do it again! This was a fun road trip. I was kinda lazy and out of it so i didn’t take as many photos as I would have liked to, but I did take a few (sample on left). Unfortunatly flickr is being an e-jackass and has limited my photos to 200 viewable ones (and I’m too cheap to pay $30 a year to have unlimited space). Don’t worry though, I’ll delete some stuff here and there and let you know when I post the pics… all 7 of them lol. Anyway, I  believe I’m going to make this drive again sometime within the next three months so I’ll be sure to take a whole lot more pictures then.

The point of this post is just to emphasize the brevity of life, and to encourage you to take advantage of  the little time you have on this green (really, multi-coloured, but…) earth, to do the things you like to do. For me it’s driving, taking photos, meeting people, dancing, cooking, frying plantains, eating waffles… the list is pretty long, but I try to do as much of each as I can. This is not to say that you shouldn’t spend your time making the world a better place in whatever way you deem fit; the two do not have to be mutually exclusive.

Remember, you only have one life to live. The following song helps me get my ass out of bed and onto the couch, (and in front of my video games!) whenever I feel unproductive; maybe it can do the same for you:

Bring out the freak in you…

I just discovered a pretty interesting blog, Pillow talk with a sassy sexpert. It talks a lot about sex, sexuality and relationships. The post that got my attention was about good music to have sex to, and it got me thinking about this song by Lil’ Rob. I found the song on youtube– enjoy it below:

I also suggested Aaliyah’s “Rock the Boat”…too old you think?

In the process of searching for this song, I realized that youtube had soooo much to offer in terms of creating a community and sharing information! Besides having a ‘channel’ where you could share all your videos, and a favorites section where you could save all the videos you liked (and share that too), there’s also a place to create a playlist. There’s also some sort of HTML generator that generates the code for you to share your playlist on your website or blog.

Now, though I kinda knew all this nifty stuff existed on youtube, I only just really took an interest in it about 5 minutes ago, so I’ll mess around with it and share what I figure out with you.

Wow, how do you like this post? Sex and technology. Maybe I should start combining sex and technology more– we’ll see how that affects traffic to my blog. Ciao!
