I have been on a high horse for awhile lately regarding a certain website called Pintrest (you may have heard of it). Whenever this site has been mentioned in a conversation I'm having, my end of the conversation would go a little something like this:
Friend/Colleague/Lady at the Grocery Store/etc: "I saw it on Pintrest!"
Me: "Oh, I haven't joined that site. I refuse to. I don't need one more thing on the internet to suck my time and become a distraction. I spend too much time on the computer as it is."
Insufferable, right? Well, the problem with high horses is that once you're on one, it's a long way down. Of course, after months and months of saying I was not going to join Pintrest for one of many reasons, something happened to make me rethink my position. I came across a little page called "Specifically Articulation". I saw idea after idea for articulation therapy, and this is how my inner monologue sounded:
Oh, that's a good idea!
I can print these off for free?
I never would have thought of that!
I wonder if I can find ideas for language therapy...
or maybe fluency!
There are so many things here, I can't look at them all right now!
Crap. I have to join Pintrest.
I think my coworker may have been a bit baffled when I looked up from my computer screen and said, with a resigned sigh, "Can you invite me to join Pintrest?". Then she proceeded to gloat over my inevitable downfall and send me the invitation.
I have now been on Pintrest for a little over 24 hours, and have "pinned" recipes, ideas for school, and a few fun things for Cadence. I have officially been converted to the dark side.
