Thursday the Thirteenth

{click on badge to get in on the fun!}

This Thursday Thirteenth is a post of 13 {at least} things that I am obsessing over, right now. Check them out.

{hey! I'm not the only obsessive body here. we all have at least one. come on, share your obsession with me. leave it in the comments and i'll be sure to post it}

Here we go...{in no particular order} ::

# 1 ~~~FONTS and TYPOGRAPHY :: in this day and age of electronic 'touching', I think goodness for the graphic artists who will not let the beautiful art of letter designing fade.

# 2 ~~~APRIL SHOWERS...couldn't wait for the cold stillness of winter to rare its last blustery head because I know that it is the perfect preparation for Spring's wet, refreshing & revitalizing rebirth!

#3~~~CUPCAKES:: i {heart} the magic of these little mini cakes. Just like their sheetcake sized cousins, they bring a smile to one's face...always!

#4~~~Long leisurely phone conversations with my friends...'nough said :-)

#5~~~Reruns of Sex & The City...can't get enough of the 'girlfriend' vibe, and of course, the shoes

#6~~~New episodes of the Deadliest Catch...this work is definitely for men {and I am not a chauvenist!}

#7~~~awakening to a beautiful sunrise #8~~~Old Alfred Hitchcock movies enjoyed with a bag of microwaved popcorn, curled up in my favorite comfortable 'slipper' chair. {blankets included}

#9~~~The timeless and iconic style of Audrey Hepburn...now that's a lady!

#10~~~Fun & informative networking events. For me, this 'must do' business activity is no longer looked at as pretentious and laborious, but, as an opportunity to meet with the people that I have made special and lasting relationships.

#11~~~the anticipation of a soft-ice cream cone. This is truly what hot summer afternoons are made for. {napkin optional} #12~~~Webinars:: what a great way to experience long-distance learning! Jump out of bed, grab a cup of pre-brewed 'jo' while slipping into my favorite bunny slippers and warm/fuzzy robe. "Who'd da thunk it?!" {I'm in luv}

#13~~~beautiful stationery {calligraphy & letterpress optional}
