today's the day california's "hands-free" law goes into effect. if you haven't already done so, you need to purchase a hands-free device to use if you use your cell phone in the car.
newegg has a great deal on a motorola model that's pretty nifty. 
marcy wrote about it ages ago and i've been using it for at least that long, but google reader is pretty much the best thing since sliced bread. if you read blogs, or like to keep tabs on other sites that have feeds, it's an invaluable way to keep tabs on things without obsessively checking to see if sites have updated.

Happy New Year and New Beginnings to all!

43 Things is the perfect place to record all of those "I wanna do that!" ideas and connect with others that want to do the same things. I've been a member of the site for a couple of years now and I really dig being able to relate to the progress of others with the same ideas.
A sampling of my 43 Things:
-do something new every month
-live passionately
-take more pictures
-start yoga again
-spend less time on the internet
-learn to play the drums
