<p><span style="font-size: 8pt;"><em><a href="http://www.everydaytreats.com/2010/10/10-on-101010.html" target="_self">(Here is the list of the 10 things I committed to accomplishing on 10/10/10)</a></em></span></p>
<p>Blogging is definitely a strange thing. I&#39;m not even going to pretend that it isn&#39;t. But one of the reasons I keep plugging away is that puts me in touch with the most amazing people, in the most random ways possible.</p>
<p>For instance, take Karriane.</p>
<p>I don&#39;t know Karriane. I just &quot;met&quot; her when I posted about her company&#39;s <a href="http://www.everydaytreats.com/2010/09/make-my-day-retro-milk-bottle-and-sugar-bowl.html" target="_self">retro milk bottles</a> in September.</p>
<p>(Apropos of nothing, my dad sent me three of the bottles after he saw my post. That was a few days before he got sick. I asked him not to buy me things and he said he wanted to because &quot;they&#39;d look nice on your kitchen windowsill.&quot; Oh, dad.)</p>
<p>Anyways, Karriane and I have struck up a correspondence and she&#39;s been great the past few weeks. She&#39;s also been funny and helpful. You see, she made this PDF for me to teach me how to parallel park. They&#39;re doing it the wrong way, because they drive that way in AUSTRALIA. Which is where she lives. How awesome is that?</p>
<p>My favorite part is the attention to detail in the illustration (you must click to see the green stars -- they are key!)</p>
<p>Thanks Karianne. Now, to practice!</p>
