Happy Social Apping

This may be hard to believe, but I start almost every day at the office by going to Forbes online. Not just because I want to see their Thought Of The Day either.... although I am a fan.

Forbes Thought Of The Day for March 16, 2012

“ Coolness and absence of heat and haste indicate fine qualities. ”
— Ralph Waldo Emerson

There was an excellent article posted yesterday evening on Pinterest's legal problems.  In recent weeks I have really lagged on my use of the platform because of their terms of use... of course I haven't jumped ship and deleted my account(s) or even totally stopped pinning... I really have high hopes for this ending well.

I've been loading the Nook with some "quality" reading material for a little trip the Mr. and I are taking - without kids.  We are giddy as 2 adults who desperately need a vacation without responsibility can be.  I expect a Tweet or two to leak out along the way... I also expect adult beverages to be consumed and chances of sunburn are high.

Some of those things will probably be Instagramed...


I will not be posting anything on Facebook publicly, although there is a little group of people I have categorized as "People Who Can Know I've Been Drinking" ... they might see something.... I'm not a big Facebooker.

If all goes well you will see a post or two appear here from a location to be disclosed....they will not be soul searchy, or pain wallowy. 

Tomorrow is St. Patricks Day!  If you don't like beer I suggest Margaritas; if made properly they will have a nice light green color and should suffice for all celebratory actions. Unless you bow to the Pintrest..... and make this.....

The proper application of salt

I was in a bit of a melancholy mood on Friday, something that was startling apparent based on what I posted.  Certainly was the opposite of Fluff.  Without going into much detail I can only say that the walnut tree found one of the large wounds I've sustained while falling through the branches and decided to rub salt into it. 

Salt belongs on the rim of my margarita glass, not in my open wounds.

Today I am feeling much better....about the walnut situation.  I do not feel better about my health regimen; there was a "blip".  In the name of having endured a shitty week I took the drastic step of skipping my workouts Friday, Saturday and Sunday and in their place added fried food, beer, and a lot of trashy talking.  Sometimes a girl needs to live a little like Gretchen Wilson....




I wonder who her personal trainer is....
