On my mind...

  1. Are people still following Charlie Sheen on Twitter? (Spoiler: I guess so)
  2. What was the perfect storm that allowed such a meltdown to take center stage of American pop-culture?
  3. Why doesn't Facebook treat it's users like people?
  4. Fortune 100 site traffic has decreased by 23.02% this year. (via Hubspot webinar). That's insane. Someone is going to get blamed for that, and somebody is going to lose a job. But it's really that the world is shifting. 
  5. PS If your site's stats are up-trending, you should feel proud/lucky.
  6. Can adults have summers off? I could really use it. As you can see, I'm really thinking about work. A lot.
  7. Where should we go on vacation? Thinking Newport for the Folk Fest, St.Louis for a high school graduation. Any other good ideas for winding down with a cold one? And some nachos? Send my way.

Another busy week

My recent adventures have been well captured in other places.

I took a sewing class that left me one tote bag and one decorative pillow richer. You can read more about it here.



I also (re)met the Fabulous Beekman Boys at the Harvard Coop for a Josh Kilmer Purcell book reading. Josh's partner Brent was there to show his support as well. You can see more pictures and a video of yours truly showing off here.

An Easter Ensemble

Hello Easter. Not a big holiday for me, buutt an opportunity to dress WASP-y and have a morning cocktail. Then a quick scene change/costume change before it's off to snuggle babes and pups.

Check it: 
J Crew Delaney eyelet dress

Hot pink Kate Spade wallet

For an extra-special treat, choose a hat from Miss hikerandheels post.

Then I'm hunkering down with these adorable kiddos:
What are you plans? Have a great weekend!

One year later

Well, well, well. What a year it's been! Yesterday was Marathon Monday, which means several things to this sometime-blogger.

1st- Christmas in Boston
2nd- Amazing outpouring of love and support (and booze) in the streets.
3rd- This blog is more than one year old.
4th- I've spent an amazing year with a man I met on the street (wait for it) last Marathon Monday. 

This year was a different type of Marathon celebration for me. More about love, less about drinking my face off. It was still full of tender moments and a hugely supportive city. Here are some pictures from this year's adventure:
