“ A new idea is delicate. It can be killed by a sneer or a yawn; it can be stabbed to death by a joke, or worried to death by a frown on the right person’s brow. ”

Charles Brower

Finished reading Sticky Wisdom this weekend (thanks Sarah). Such a great read, no matter your industry this book will open your eyes to a new way of behaving at your job.

Dear Santa: I want this in my stocking.
Actually who am I kidding, I need to watch this ASAP. Who can wait until Christmas?!

Remember when I took Trapeze Lessons with my high school girlfriend (and fellow McCook High Cheerleader) Amy? Well I’m trying to learn how to use iMovie and made a quick little video of that experience. It’s not Oscar worthy, but I’m still a newbie. This might become my new little hobby (video editing, not trapeze…i’m not crazy about heights or hanging upside down). Hope you enjoy.

I have a big day tomorrow, so hoping all my peeps on the internet will send me some positive thoughts. Thanks in advance. xo

“ Sure, he’d got used to the idea that there wouldn’t be a new album, or even a new song, anytime soon, but he’d never learned to look on his inability to write as anything other than a temporary state, which meant that he was permanently unsettled, as if he were in an airport lounge waiting for a plane. In the old days, when he flew a lot, he’d never been able to get absorbed in a book until the plane had taken off, so he’s spent the pre-boarding time flicking through magazines and browsing in gift shops, and that’s what the last couple of decades had felt like: one long flick through a magazine. If he’d known how long he was going to spend in the airport lounge of his own life, he’d have made different travel arrangements, but instead he’d sat there, sighing and fidgeting and, more often than was ever really acceptable, snapping at his traveling companions. ”

Nick Hornby from Juliet, Naked

Leave your airport lounge and get on the damn plane!!

So I’m bringing my british boyfriend home with me to Dallas for Thanksgiving. I just got off the phone with my mother and the following conversation took place:
Me: I want to take Ben for some Texas BBQ and Mexican food while we’re in town.
Mom: Don’t worry about a thing, all the arrangements have been made.
Oh god Ben, my family is on the case to show you some real southern hospitality. God knows what all has been organized. He’s about to meet the real cruise director of the family.
ps- mom, I know you’re reading this. Just teasing you, can’t wait to see what all you’ve cooked up x

I am currently at Mount Sinai Hospital waiting on my friend to come out of recovery from surgery. My job is to shepard him home safely. This is my handy beeper that alerts me when he’s good to go. I hope he wakes up soon because damn this place is depressing. I’m on the verge of cruising by the maternity ward for a pick me up.
