the joys of wireless internet

It is a beautiful cool night. I was able to go for a run and not feel like I could barely breath because of the humidity and it's finally cooled off enough to open the windows and turn off the ac. I can't complain about the heat too much, it is summer in Iowa and in my mind that is much better than winter. Life is good. Especially when I can sit out on the balcony enjoying the afterglow of the sunset and type away while connected to the internet.

It's that time of month when I get new issues of every magazine I subscribe to (blueprint, esquire, relevant, radiant, no real simple yet, but i'm sure it's coming) It can be a little overwhelming, so many pages to flip through! But then I remind myself that it's my job to flip through them, gotta love that. One of my favorite pieces every month is Esquire is 10 Things You Don't Know About Women (remember this is a men's magazine) This month my favorite point is: We only want to date men who can troubleshoot computers. The broken laptop is the leak faucet of the twenty-first century. I had to laugh when I read this because Adam is definitely my computer guru.

I'm random tonight, but we have been talking about creating a playlist of sorts with the best songs to remodel to for the remodelingcenter.com website and I found the best roadtrip playlist here. Check it out and tell me if it doesn't make you want to burn a few cds and take a road trip right now.

1) love the playlist... can we please take a roadtrip together sometime

2) wireless internet is AMAZING... especially when one has a balcony to enjoy it on.

3) not only did I get overwhelmed with magazine this month, I took a trip to the newstand to get more. I will admit, I'm a designer and spent most of the time flipping the pages for visual inspiration. Working in the magazine world is pretty great.
