marketing at it finest

Okay, so despite my extreme shame, there are just some products I go nuts over.
Drano's max gel has recently been added to the list. With the help of the Drano, I have triumphed - i know, it doesn't take much.
Magic Eraser tends to kick my butt as well. And i do love the bleach pen for tile...i haven't used it for it's intended purpose so i'll reserve judgement there.
Tide To Go, which had trumped shout wipes (smaller surface area), has been letting me down recently, which saddens me. I'm hoping that it's merely a temporary slump.
I know there are other things out there that i marvel over - again, it doesn't take much, but they aren't coming to mind as readily. Don't get me wrong, i can't live without my zebra fine pens, but that's a matter of preference as i write small, for which my third grade teacher, and the C's i received in handwriting, are responsible. I'm a big fan of gmail, but that's logic....gotta love that organization, I don't care who you are.
Oh, and those standup staplers - love them, although it isn't the same passion i feel for the magic eraser.
Basically i'm just further fueling my stance as a big geek, but i'm okay with that. I figure that there really aren't that many products out there that offer absolutely no viable substitute (I tried the liquid plumber, I tried the works) and with the wealth of junk on the market, you've just gotta give props to the few truly good products.
I'm open to recommendations and suggestions.

learnings...

Today i have had an opportunity to evaluate some of the stuff God is doing in my life. An old roommate of mine recently sent a forward and since i hadn't heard from her in years, i sent an email to her. We got to dialogue about what God is doing and where we are. It was pretty cool to reflect on the stuff God has shown me and then woohoo, call out something new to work on. Gotta love that! seriously, it was neat to look at the things i've been working on and really see the progress but also note the aspects i still get to wrestle with. ahhh growth!
Reflection and introspection often come as the world spins crazy as well. if grounded in it, Truth seems to speak more strongly through lies.
just some thoughts...i haven't reread what i just wrote, but i'm not so sure it makes sense to anyone but me. I'm sure some of the vagueness will be address in detail later (or if you really want to know, ask) when my brain is capable of writing it...although i could cut and paste what i wrote to Lisa, but i think it would need some additional stuff seeing as it's been a while since i sent the email and my brain hasn't stopped.
yeah....
