Sproinnngggg!
I think I finally figured out how to use springpad. What is springpad, you ask? It’s one of those “organize your life” web applications, sort of like Evernote. Evernote is more established and well known, but I started using springpad before Evernote, so I’m more comfortable with it. (Which isn’t a whole lot, because I just created a whole bunch of new springpads by accident and can’t figure out how to delete them. Ugh.) Plus, Evernote appears to be blocked at work. So springpad it is for me.
I’d been creating folders and “springpads” (heh) for awhile, but they were really just an amalgamation of junk. Finally this week things started to gel. I made one pad to keep track of the things I want to do online, including ideas for Sci Fi Chicks, things I should do while on the computer (instead of getting sidetracked with various forms of solitaire), and what to tackle in my great effort to get my home (and life) in order. Springpad comes with a several templates to address some of life’s everyday and not-so-everyday tasks; like moving checklists, budgets, pet information, and daily chores (I’m so not using that one!). The one I do plan on using is the weekly meal planner. Yep. It’s time to get back on the meal planning and better eating bandwagon.
But none of that “get myself organized” crap tonight. Tonight I’m going chill out and watch My Bloody Valentine 3D, only not in 3D. 3D or no 3D, Jensen Ackles is still one of the seven wonders of the world.

Personally, I tried to use Everpad, I didn’t last long. I’m still marking my to-do lists on my calendar, both on a paper version and a calendar that came with computer operating system (I have a Mac).

I heard the 3D version on DVD was disappointing, which is a disappointment, because it was so great in the theater.
