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.
   

Random Tuesday Musings

Friends.

I met a racist dog this morning. It let me walk right on by but viciously barked at the Asian lady who goes who through the neighborhood's trash every Tuesday morning.

Which begs the question, what IS she looking for? Furthermore, why does the man collect the acorns in the fall? Where is he taking them? Is everyone's neighborhood as odd as mine?

Next, a girl wore just a bra in pilates. Please note we do this horrific maneuvers with our bodies which should NEVER be done uncovered. Unacceptable. Like this:

Hi Eden! That's my hero, girl-crush extraordinaire Eden. That photo was taken by Jill Legrow. More on Eden to come. For now, please know she is awesome and I crawl out of bed 3 times a week to see her. And I'm pretty sure that = love.

Third, it's clear that Pride Week got a lot less family-friendly after the sun set. I learned that from some, um, debris left on the sidewalk. (No pictures on purpose).

Finally, online invitations have really stepped up the design and classiness. Check out some of these beauties from Paperlesspost.com. The details are really beautiful.
