Do you know Christene Barberich? She is the founder + editorial director of the uber cool Refinery 29. When I saw she was pinning I immediately had to follow. Barberich has an amazing eye and I am not the only one that believes so, she has legions of even the most jaded of fashionista,’s clamoring to view her site each day. I am more interested in her pins, they are always very diversified and it’s so fun to be able to get a peek into what is currently inspiring a New York editor. I do hope you find her boards as exciting as I do. You can visit her here and the Refinery 29 boards here.
In other news, our cross country trek has been going swimmingly, if not a little monotonous. I thought the long stretches of the Oklahoma highway on the way East were uhm, long, but compared to the scenes from the window driving through Minnesota and South Dakota it was practically a visual feast. I have made it through to the highest level of my Word Solitaire app and feel like I may have avoided a bit of brain deterioration in the process (or added to it), time will tell. I had a bit of a problem again with the Itunes audiobook download, but Audible works like a charm for even the most download challenged. We have listened to Michael Ian Black’s You’re not doing it right. Not, for the easily offended, it made for light listening and lots of laughs. We have also listened to a compilation of live performances by David Sedaris, my husband doesn’t think he is as genius as I do. This makes me question my choice of husbands. Currently we are listening to The Killer of Little Shepards which is about the birth of forensic science in the late 1800’s. It boggles my mind how they came up with such advanced theories in a time sans the interwebs. I jest (not really). And you? I hope your week is going swell. I know I had some blog snafu’s, with posts being launched all willy nilly, I am hoping I have repaired the glitch, but only time shall tell. If you miss me terribly I have been posting awful photos on Instagram documenting the long haul (how the heck did the Pioneers do this in horse drawn wagons?) and tweeting seemingly unwitty quips that garner me zero responses, don’t worry it won’t stop me. I usually don’t have long stretches like this to devote to social media so I am taking advantage of it.
