life as we know it

I've been a bad blogger. Life sort of got in the way, which is ok, of course, because we all know life is more important than the internet.

*crickets chirping*

Don't we?

Anyway, here's what I've been up to lately:

• Mostly, working two jobs. I started working as an Independent Arbonne Consultant in July, and it's been a lot of fun. If you don't know what Arbonne is, it's basically natural, botanically based skincare & wellness products that rock your face off. Well, not your face, really, just your wrinkles. Anyways, it's awesome, but starting any new business is certainly time-consuming. If you want some great products that work & aren't going to kill you with chemicals, I can hook you up.
  
• Enjoying the (slightly) cooler end-of-summer outdoors. Until the ragweed ruined everything. I'm hoping fall gets here soon.
• Watching Firefly. I went through the whole season and the movie in a couple of days. How did I not know about this sooner? I have some serious geek love for this show.
  

Aaand that's about it. Work has taken up most of my time. When I do have a few blissful moments of free time I want to sit and veg, not expend more creative energy.

Speaking of creative energy, these are the blogs I've been loving lately:

• http://thesartorialist.blogspot.com/ So much amazing fashion inspiration.
  
• http://www.newdressaday.com/ This girl makes me want to sew.
  
• http://www.clothedmuch.com/ A minimalist, Mormon fashion blogger.
  

Notice how all of these revolve around clothes? I seriously think I missed my calling. Is it too late to switch my graduate degree to fashion design? Oh, I wish.

And just to avoid posting a blog with no pictures. . .

do yourself a favor, and go watch this.
