Just testing out the...
ETA: "With you" was actually supposed to be "widget" so I probably wouldn't use this function unless it was critical that something got blogged immediately and I really can't ever imagine that happening to me :)
Mama's Little Helpers
Just found this cool new website, www.jott.com, that allows you to call yourself (its toll free number) from your cell phone and leave a message. It will transcribe this message and email it to you or put an appt on your google calendar or even a blogger or typepad post. I'll have to try out the blogger widget in a bit but I have to laugh at the voicemail I tested out today.
It does admit to only being fairly confident in the transcription but it should actually say "suckers". The "sacks" part is correct though. It was accurate enough for me to recall what I meant though. The calendar function worked great for those of you that use Google Calendar. I use it because I can access it at home and work which is helpful since I don't carry a palm pilot anymore. I can also use separate labels for Josh and the boys and then share them with Josh so we all know what is going on. Then I use Spanning Sync to sync my google calendar to iCal because I like using it a little better on my mac. Spanning sync works really well also.

Quite Possibly
The Best Ever...
We love Jack Johnson at our house and as soon as we started the first song, Boone said "Is that Jack Johnson?"I love this album! There are so many great songs and I've already picked at least four new favorites. I told Josh that I am dancing with Boone to "Go On" at his wedding. Go on... if you are a parent, I dare you to read the lyrics to that song without crying. The title song "Sleep Through the Static" is not just fantastic musically but lyrically was well. So perfect for this time and this nightmare of a war. Anyway, the whole album is amazing and may quite possibly be his best album to date. Do yourself a favor, download it now (or you could just go buy the CD:)!
