Pinterest!!

I haven't been blogging, but I have been busy pinning! Yesterday I hit a milestone- 500 followers on Pinterest, and the 500th one was rather exciting. The New York Times!! They are following ME on Pinterest!! Woo hoo! I mean, I know they probably follow practically everyone, and a lot of my 500 followers are actually spammers, but I can ignore that for a minute and just bask in the glory. Shhh- don't burst my bubble, please.

I've pinned 14,339 pins, which seems kind of improbable, but there it is. I don't feel like I spend too much time on it, although I probably do, and it's taken a while to accumulate those numbers, but I've done it. I find pins all over and it's all stuff I'm interested in and want to go back to and look at... some day. I'm not really one to pin a lot of crafts, although I do have a crafts board, so it's mainly articles, informative videos, recipes, TED talks and NPR stories. I haven't read all of the articles or watched all of the videos I've pinned by a long shot, but I have given them all at least a once over to determine which board to pin them to, and I've read or watched a significant number. I find the information I pin endlessly fascinating. I love finding information and sharing it with others who may find it useful- I was probably a librarian in a past life.

Well, there you have it- I'm a Pinterest-a-holic.
