Comments on: Sit down, Abby! http://proactivebusybody.com/2005/08/09/sit-down-abby/ Life is in flux BIG TIME these days. I want to keep in touch with all of my peeps. The Internet is this beautiful thing. I can move to a brand new city and still stay in easy, near-daily contact with the people I love. When I feel connected to the people in my life that matter, I am unstoppable!

My arthritic knees couldn't handle it. On the other hand, I remember when I was in college, on each hall we had one pay phone with a school desk beneath it. I used to stand in the seat of the desk and lean against the wall to talk - sometimes for a long time. Usually, I wasn't even aware of having gotten into that position until someone came by and looked at me strangely. I’ve read about and seen those desks before, but for me it sounds like torture.

All of you who are interested, <a href="http://www.epinions.com/Washing_Machines--reviews--washer_dryer" rel="nofollow">take a look at Epinions' reviews</a>. I compared the <a href="http://www.energystar.gov/index.cfm?c=clotheswash.pr_clothes_washers" rel="nofollow">Energy Star</a> compliant models, then I picked the one with 9 decent reviews. I'm always really skeptical if there's only one review of something. We will be there by the first of September. Yay! Hanging out in Boston will be so much fun!

They are so cute, but ho ar they on energy? I'm all about the energy these days. In fact, next week I get rid of my car and trade it in for a bike. I feel like such a mormon (except where is my hot little sidekick!). When are you coming to New England??? We gotta hang out. I'll take the Peter Pan bus to Boston and we will chill.

Some of them leak and/or sound like jet engines, is what I read. The expensive ones are sposta be cool, though. (Figures.) Working standing up is cool!
