My mom says it's a bad habit and will eventually make me go blind, but what can I say? Googling my full name, nickname, Tumblr account, Twitter handle, and various other flotsam yields not only a plethora of results, but some of them are actually not about me! Without Googling myself, I never would have found out about the Australian Drew Grant who was killed in Indonesia this year, nor would I keep getting deals in my Inbox for the lowest price of 'Music and Lyrics' (starring Hugh Grant and Drew Barrymore).

So next year's resolution: I'm going to take down my Google Alerts to keep myself from being lazy. If I want to be proactive about it, I can type my own name into a search engine, thankyouverymuch.
