It's the Little Things

I've been working at a law firm for the past 3 days.

I know, I know. A law firm, Ali? Seriously?

No, no. Hell has not frozen over. I'm just helping out a family friend (who works at the law firm) because hey, why the hell not?

My point in even mentioning this is to say that when my routine is thrown off, so is my blog-reading schedule.

And as thankful as I am for work in any way, shape or form, I just hate it when my blog-reading schedule is thrown off.

I mean, don't we all?

You know the scene.

You come home from a day at the office (or classroom or studio or crack house, whatever floats your boat), open up your trusted Google Reader and bam! 2,569,236 blogs staring back at you, silently pleading, read me! Read. Me.

It's an overwhelming experience, that scene.

Which is why I decided that this dreaded song and dance ends today. Thanks to my BlackBerry, I realized I can read blogs on my phone sporadically at work, whenever I need a break.

And guess who came home to only 30 new blog posts in her reader?

It's the little things, I tell ya.

I do the same, and it really helps me mentally escape from work periodically throughout the day. Hooray for crackberry!

I HATE it when I get behind on my blog reading. It makes me crazy!
