A photo from one of my favorite places on earth - SONIC. I love to pick up a slushie [usually a blue flavor] with Nerds during happy hour. What's your go-to order? [but seriously, tell me - I love to talk about Sonic].
- An absolutely adorable little gif to brighten your day. [that title though!]
- Most annoying Facebook posts by state - apparently Alabama hates selfies? Interesting.
- Alissa has been killing it on the blog post front since coming back from her break! Her mini quarter-life-crisis in particular really hit home with me.
- Love these fun Galentine's Day gift ideas! I'm kind of dying for that shirt now. #leslieknopeforeva
- 100-year-old wedding night advice for newlyweds - so entertaining and so...sad in a multitude of ways.
- This little feature on the development of Birmingham has me really missing the city. So many cool changes are happening to the downtown area!
- These "reactions" to Zac Efron missing the HSM cast reunion had me actually on the verge of crying in class this week. I would say some people really need to chill, but then we'd miss out on so much entertainment.
- So much love for this little essay of Jolie's on gender disparity and parenting. "My husband is applauded and I am told, with wide eyes and deep nods of affirmation, that I’m just so lucky to have a man who works and does the dishes and washes the clothes. And he changes diapers and “babysits” the kid so I can get out or work in my office? I mean, wow....Never is Sean told how lucky he is to have a woman who plans every dinner, cleans the bathrooms, wipes his baby’s butt all day while he’s at work and also finds the time to have a job of her own that she pursues." The roles of men vs. women might be something I happen to dwell on a lot as I'm going pursuing a career that's going to be pretty time-intensive, but still. This was a well-written think piece that I highly recommend you read.
- Anna's list of yarn shops/resources was very swiftly bookmarked for future reference. Knit all the things!
- Hey now! These T-strap clogs look almost identical to the pair I picked up from Old Navy a few years back [and continue to wear, because they're pretty great].
- A little wishlist: this functional blouse in a super sweet print | this beautiful top | these delightfully comfy looking loafers | this classic striped tee [SO MANY COLORS] | this pretty polka dot dress
- And a song for the weekend.
