Angie Has Much More Energy Than Me

Okay, I've done it. I finished the dress upcycle on my $2 knit jumper from Value Village. And after two days of napping and telecommuting and sewing (with a little eating and antibiotic-swallowing thrown in there) there is absolutely no way I'm going to upload & edit & post & label all the pictures tonight. Plus, I'm going to have to wait until I wear it for someone at work to take a photo of me modeling it so...I guess I'm going to leave you with a teaser!

If you're in the mood for some good reading tonight, may I suggest that you check out my lovely friend Angie's new blog, Every Other Day? Angie is beautiful, talented, smart, funny, athletic, and...surprisingly single! She actually broke up with her boyfriend just a week ago or so and decided the best way to rebound with good spirits was to date as much as possible, like every other day or so. And so, Every Other Day was born, in which Angie will attempt to go on a date and write about the good, the bad, and the unwashed (we're in Portland, remember?) for all of us to read about. This experiment will continue until Angie ends up married, kidnapped, or she just can't stand all of the drama anymore. Seriously, drama. One of the guys she dated is sending her incessant love-letter emails! Yikes!

Check it out, let me know what you think. Personally, I'm enjoying the vicarious thrill of dating wildly like a young person again. Date on, Angie!

See? Cute, right? No wonder the dates are lining up for this social experiment...
