In special honor of today’s post, I’m hereby naming today GEEK OUT WEDNESDAY!!!!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Here’s why I’m pulling out the inner nerd in Sammy Davis Vintage: Monday night I was lucky enough [and excited enough!] to visit the Google NYC headquarters in Chelsea to visit with two friends and fashion-lovers who work there.<\/p>\n

Now, I don’t know about you, but my college education was pretty much based on the existence of Google. From Google.com to Gmail to Google chat to now Google docs and beyond … I don’t know what I would done without the big “G” in my life, because it definitely helped with that other ominous G that I so gratefully achieved: GRADUATION! <\/strong><\/p>\n

The funny thing about Google is that as it exists today, it will no longer exist this way tomorrow. And most importantly, in one year … five years … 10 \u00a0years! Can you imagine living in 2021 and reflecting upon the “Google of yesterday?” It’s a slightly frightening, but all-too-true reality: All that we are now will someday be “vintage” and “behind the times” tomorrow.<\/em><\/p>\n

But I’m not blogging today to muse about the future of technology and Google’s impact on it. I’m blogging to share how I added some vintage flair to the superstar site’s NYC headquarters in Chelsea, Manhattan — and oh yeah, to geek out about the fun and free environment of the offices themselves. As my Google host said, “It’s almost like I work in a preschool.”<\/p>\n

Keep reading after the jump to see some pictures of this “Google preschool,” and the nitty gritty on how I wore flashback fashion to the HQ of a flash forward digital conglomerate!<\/p>\n

Happy “Geek Out Wednesday” everyone … what are you geeking out about today? Don’t ever hesitate to post on the Facebook fanpage, ask for a retweet on Twitter or YES! send me a shout on FourSquare. And oh yeah … that thing called Gmail. I have that, too. ;-) <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n
