Internet Roundup

I have been amused and inspired this week by of course the internet. Here are a few of the things making me laugh, think, and in general appreciate life.

2. 'There has been an abundance of articles circulating the web on how to talk to your daughters about Miley Cyrus or how to talk to your sons about Robin Thicke after their shocking performance of Thicke’s “Blurred Lines” at MTV’s VMAs, but the greater conversation still appears unspoken: have you talked to your children about their shitty, shittytaste in music yet?'...

Madewell Giveaway wishlist





Madewell Giveaway wishlist
Last month Madewell had a giveaway, for a $2013 gift card for 2013. In my head I have been repeating, " pick me, pick me, pick me" well we'll see. I have never had particularly great luck at random contests. I do know a couple of lucky people who do seem to win everything. Oh well I am still hoping.
