week one of this new year: january 1-7.





















in this first week of this new year i wore heels and bright red lipstick. i drank peppermint tea, went back to exercise class, got out of the apartment more, gave thanks for the best girlfriends i've ever had, woke to a package with the most beautiful (and adult) wallet, and wore a new pair of jeans for the first time in six and a half years.

then i flew to cleveland, spent some time with family, and got to see one of the most spectacular women i've ever had the great pleasure of knowing marry the love of her life.

not such a bad way to kick off 2012.

Now that I have experienced pure bliss, I will forever measure my happiness by how close at hand everyone I love is. My wish is for you to have everyone you love in one giant room, where everyone is smiling, and the great equalizers are pop music and a photo booth... You're my heart.
