Ah, Pinterest. That wide open space on the internet that both inspires (if you need ideas) and enrages (if you're trying to keep up). I joined Pinterest when it was fairly young I suppose, back when next to no one was on it and nobody in the real world that wasn't the slightest bit bloggy had ever heard of it.
I didn't get it. Pinterest was weird to me. Plus, I was in serious, deep love with Houzz, which is sorta like Pinterest but way more home-design-oriented. Everybody else was all "Pinterest!" while I constantly told them Houzz was so much cooler.
Since my hours have changed, i.e. awake A LOT between midnight and 4 am (thanks, Mayhem!), and there is nothing on the internet at that time of night, I've finally gotten into Pinterest and have been pinning like a mad woman. I've got boards for hair I wish I had, things I really might cook, things I'd actually do to my house and clothing inspiration I could make work from what I have or might like to actually buy one day. I'm pretty selective with what I pin even though I feel like I pin a lot.
I do have a few fun boards that I've saved funny things or inspiring quotes to. I'm not into crafts so I haven't gone nuts pinning stuff I'll never do.
Ain't it weird the stuff you get into at 2 am?
I still love Houzz, but we've cooled off. ;)

Pinterest is one of those great time-wasters. I LOVE it! I find I pin non-stop for a week and then I need to take a break because things seem to become repetitive, but before long, I'm back at it.
It's definitely a time-waster but what else could I be doing?
