no longer screaming inside my head...
…but coming to the realization that planning a big wedding may not be for me (understatement of the millenium). luckily i have a super supportive fiance, an amazing mother and mother-in-law and bridesmaids that are the fucking BOMB to get me through this. but still, i think misery can always use a little more company.
tumblrs, how did you not go completely insane during the last two...

Cooking Fools Class: Low and Slow, the Secrets of...
Future sister-in-law is stuck at work so she was nice enough to gift me with her ticket to this evening’s class! Particularly looking forward to the lamb stew recipe. Drool.
Le disappointment.
We went to the Bean last night to check out Luminous Field….and it pains me to say this but I was underwhelmed.
Wah wah.
Maybe it was the fact that there were 1000 screaming children swarming like angry bees through the field, 100 amateur photogs staking out all of the best viewing spots with their tripods and massive amounts of equipment, or the fact that the lights weren’t that...
“True happiness comes from within. Remember to love yourself today.”
– my younger brother Dan’s Facebook status today…wise words from a 24-year-old kid.
Well, that was the conference call from hell.
That’s all.

DISCLAIMER: I’m about to get POLITICAL and CONTROVERSIAL, so if that ain’t yo thang, move along to the next post on your Tumblr feed.
I’m writing this post after taking some time to calm down and eat lunch and try to distance myself from the blind rage filling my head. Deep breath in….and out.
This morning I was doing my daily pre-lunch lap around Facebook and saw...

Go grab a pair today, before they’re gone.

If you're looking for new sweaters, haul ass to...
They’re having their blowout 30% on top of 60% off clearance sale, and it’s GOOD. There’s tons of selection, and I find their quality to be on par with Banana and J. Crew. I just bought SIX sweaters, which at full price would have cost me $397, for $109.
DO IT.
Taking a little time FO MAH SEFF.
The last two mornings, I’ve done a 20 minute yoga practice and 5 minutes of mindful meditation before I started my regular morning routine. This is part of my plan to take action on my general level of anxiety, put MYSELF in the top priority spot on never-ending list of daily tasks, and be healthier in mind, body and soul.
I like the morning yoga and meditation. I hope that it is something...

The ONE complaint I never thought I'd have.
Sorrrrrrrrr for the negative posts recently, especially for the new followers (I promise I’m not always like this, swearsies, funny, light things will be back soon) but I feel like honesty is the best policy, and this community has proved to be a supportive one.
This may be the biggest first world problem ever, but nonetheless it is a problem, and it concerns me.
I recently began taking...

Best Dressed at the Golden Globes (yes I know, I'm...
My best-dressed is pretty (ok, completely) random because she’s not even really a movie/tv star (at least that I know of) and she got almost no camera time…but I saw her on the E! post show as her husband Channing Tatum was interviewed and I have to say…she looks stunning.
Her name is Jenna Dewan and I guess she’s some kind of B-show actress/dancer. But holy hell, that...

Back from Breckenridge and ready for a big week.
First things first, the trip review:
- this is our fourth annual Breckenridge trip. The group waxes and wanes but it’s always at least 12 people and those people are always awesome. It’s hosted by one of my favorite people in the world and her equally awesome husband, who are beyond generous with their home.
- on the first day we got some quality time with above said favorite people...
Dining room paint starts now.
Hopefully I’ll have a before and after to post tonight. My baby brother is generously (although not that generous, since we are paying him) providing the labor. I’m working out of the home office and keep peeking, and it looks AWESOME.
So mayje.
I wanted to love It’s A Brad Brad World, but it feels like its trying too hard. And really, nobody else can shut it down like the real deal, Rachel.
