1. Slinked around Sported the leggings/shapeless tunic/Vans for an unhealthy portion of yesterday, and I only decided not to look like a Guatemalan/Asian rice paddy worker hybrid when going out for Thai got slapped on the table. Food is a huge motivator for sartorial improvement around here.

2. If anyone is capable of a .924 batting average for taking the least flattering photos of themselves, I have a corner in the Hall of Shame all prepped for my likeness. I'm still working on setting my camera/tripod/remote - I know it's not rocket science - but I just need time, time that won't be available for a few days. I have too many lazier and more useless time sucks to partake in at the moment.

3. Speaking of time sucks, got a late heads up into the new IT game. As Husband and I regularly partake in completely offensive politically incorrect discussions in the privacy of our home just to expand our intellectual horizons past our cul de sac, I feel KNOW this is going to be our very, very favorite new pasttime. Too bad I'll have to pretty much wait til autumn for us to play together. I need more incorrigible friends, stat.

4. Two mile hike - Rudy's ribs for lunch = good intentions take a dismal nosedive. There are four bbq joints within 2 miles of our house, so don't judge.

5. I'm debating on ordering this. I ain't even gonna pretend I really, really need it, but I love it on Franziska, and it will be a chic, polished option to haul wallet/keys/juiceboxes/gum/toys/extra toddler clothes/insert any item here. I'm also attracted to english saddle colored anything, so I'm guessing I'll pull the trigger (may hold out for a couple of weeks in case a promo pops up). I have two very high-end tote style bags, but I don't like to use those every day, so I think this fits the bill. It'll use up my little bowl of monies I had set aside from my regular clothing funds for a larger, but not BIG, purchase. Thoughts?


Five items of fluff for a brief weekend update. What are you looking to 'invest' in for spring?

  1. first thought: those pants are so flattering on you. your legs look so long!

    second thought: yes to the bag. I use it every single day. It holds all the crap I want to carry around but because it is so so simple, it goes with everything. plus I just love my little monogram on it :)
