CURRENTLY
reading Suze Orman's 9 Steps to Financial Freedom. It's embarrassing how little I know about taking care of my money, and it's time to start making smart decisions.
watching Smash on NBC On Demand - it's a perfect summer drama! I find myself singing snatches of the songs as I go about my day. These two are my favorites.
eating spaghetti squash; last night I mixed it with leftover ratatouille for a quick and healthy dinner and today it will be topped with a diced avocado and a sprinkling of parm for a delicious cold lunch.
running every morning with Charlie through the park. This morning we ran 2.4 miles in just over 37 minutes, though he would have liked to go faster. He'll be a good training partner, I can tell!
listening to The Unthanks, a folk group from Northumberland, whose unadorned melodies are hauntingly beautiful. I've had their album Here's the Tender Coming on repeat for weeks.
counting down the weeks until I get to visit Jon in England - we've done 6 and have 8.5 to go. From 30 May to the September trip is the longest time we'll spend apart between now and the wedding next August.
following the response to the Anne-Marie Slaughter article in a recent issue of The Atlantic on women, work, and having it all. The feedback has been as fascinating as the original piece!
loving coming home from work to the sweetest dog in the world. Charlie greeted me with such joy when I walked in the door, covering me with kisses and contorting himself around my legs.
hating mosquitoes! Genetically modified anything makes me nervous, but I will be a happier girl if they can wipe out all mosquitoes everywhere. They can't actually serve any evolutionary purpose, can they?
How about you, dear readers? What are you up to currently?
