be the change you wish to see in the world :) not ridiculous (well…maybe a little. but still, awesome).
daydream believer
Fabulous Emily from Emphasis Added did this. I thought I would too.
Daydreams
being an elite gymnast
bike riding on trails around austin
a never ending supply of toblerone
fat free toblerone (that tastes the same as regular)
a whole wardrobe of lululemon apparel
marrying Dave Tisch (so we could talk about startups, movies, and go to every giants game)
living off of St. Charles in the garden district of new orleans
dinners at le bernadin
dinners at the french laundry
really phenomenal glasses of cabernet sauvignon
being able to DO something about poverty and hunger…what a world without either of those things would be like
the night sky in new mexico
the night sky in keaton beach
having one of those fountain coke machines with 150 flavors in my house
the sopapillas from the first restaurant we went to in Albuquerque
a mulberry bag
running a marathon
having babies
having 20/20 vision
being able to dance really well
a never ending supply of peach ginger iced tea, sweetened with equal
a deck with outdoor ceiling fans and outdoor speakers, overlooking the water
coming up with one of those brand insights that gives you chills because it’s so ridiculously perfect
a little dog named george strait
love
ridiculous love
FASCINATING behind the scenes look at the writing process for the State of the Union address.
On a side note, I have a HUMUNGOUS crush on Jon Favreau, Obama’s head of speechwriting. He is SO smart, but not in that unpleasant, in your face way :)
(not the other Jon Favreau. Though he directed the first Iron Man, which was actually pretty BADASS. A con, though, is that he wrote Swingers, prompting an entire generation of douchebaggy guys to overuse the phrase “That’s so MONEY.”)

i am feeling the polar opposite of the ridiculous post from last friday
oh what a difference a week makes.
!!!!!!!!!!! Ridiculously AMAZING. I truly almost licked the screen.
French Toast Macaron (Smokey bacon custard, with maple-glazed bacon, maple jelly and air) OMFG. (via)
oh LAWD
They Are Wearing: Paris Couture Week
Out and about in Paris during spring couture.
This is a ridiculous picture, but OH MY GOD, I totally live the wrong life. I was so made for standing around Paris during fashion week wearing furry, unseasonable outfits :)
Oh TAVI
So FANTASTIC that, in a sea of absolutely terrible, meaningless nonsense, there is this. Tavi, you are such a rockstar.
Random front porch in the Greensboro airport. It’s not a restaurant, and it doesn’t seem to be actually open for people to sit on.
My headshot for work, courtesy of IPHOTO. I sent it along with another, with a toothy smile. I hope they use that one, because it’s sunny and fine. I like this one, though, weirdly. I think it says a lot.

this is going to be a SUPER ridiculous post
but I am just really excited about my life right now. there is so much that I am doing that I love so much, both on a macro and micro level. there really is something to be said for sitting back and appreciating the fact that i can go out to my car and get something in a t-shirt and flip flops in the middle of january, and that I am actually skinnier now than i was when I first moved down here, and that I get to sit around my living room and drink knob creek and diet coke and ROCK OUT to music that I love on friday night, rather than going to a bar where I would drink 3 expensive, weak drinks and bow out.
That’s all.
