Things I learn during my commute

My commute to/from work generally takes about 30 minutes each way, and I actually kind of enjoy it. It gives me time to decompress and catch up on all the important news and info, like the ones I picked up during my drive home last night.

1. The launch of the Kardashian Kard. Kardashian sisters just announced the launch of their own prepaid MasterCard. In just a few short days, you can start carry around their faces in your wallet--OMG!--all Kardashians, all the time! And, as a bonus, you can store up to $750,000 on the Kard. Not sure if that’s enough for me, but it will do for now.

2. The metrosexual look is out, rugged manly-man look is in. I was curious as to what they meant by "rugged," so I checked out the Marketplace Website and here are a couple of their favorite "rugged" looks:

I’ve gotta say, when I think of rugged, I think of grubby jeans, flannel over white undershirt and a pair of work boots. This is more metrosexual-wannabe-rugged. The maize colored v-neck on the left is waayyy too carefully coordinated with the cornflower blue under shift. And the guy on the right…just look at the gold detail on his belt.


And finally, I learned the most important lesson of all from a bumper sticker on the car ahead of me:

3. “Give kids hugs, not drugs.” Well then. I'll be sure to keep that in mind with EB.

So you see, you learn something new every day.
