Reading This Week...

Stacy London on turning 47, how society treats women in their forties, and "finding my trouser pockets are filled fewer and fewer fucks". Do you guys Hygge? I don't either, but I'm about to because it involves all of my favorite fall leisure activities:  socks, coffee and baking. Speaking of fall, I don't watch sportsball, but I do live and die for snacks. So if you're having friends over for The Big Game, and there's going to be dip, please call me. Now seems like a good time to bring up leggings as pants, and wearing whatever in the hell you like, plus size fashion rules be damned.

Eyes and Ears...

You guys, John and I finally finished watching Stranger Things. Whoa! Okay, I'm ready. Let's have all the conversations. I sped-read Amy Schumer's The Girl with the Lower Back Tattoo. If you're the least bit interested in reading it, I highly recommend you do so. I loved it. I like to watch documentaries while I paint my nails and I watched a really good one, The First Monday in May. (It's on Netflix.) It's a behind-the-scenes look at how the annual NYC Met Ball comes together. It's fascinating! If you want to feel really good about your life, might I recommend Anna Faris is Unqualified featuring Courtney Love? Holy shit, you guys. Whatever you think about Courtney Love, it is one thousand times worse.

Thrifting...

I bought this glorious unicorn at Goodwill for $2.50. It was 50% off of $4.99. Not that I wouldn't have paid $4.99 for it. As soon as John's not looking, I'm going to hang it over our bed.
