On a gorgeous weekend full of wonderful friends, a quick handful of links for you. The sun’s not quite down yet. Get back outside while you can!
- The Internet has passed print in popularity as a news source. Why TV news remains most popular is beyond me. It’s useless for world news, full of local misery that doesn’t affect me and I can’t do anything about, garnished with celebrity sensationalism. Awful.
- Cooler than an infographic: a sonographic (?) explaining how close Olympic medalists were.
- The idea of renting designer handbags was ridiculous, but the idea of renting designer shoes disgusts me. (Same with vintage shoes.) Shoes somebody else’s bare feet were in? It’s like borrowing underpants. Skeeve.
P.S. A note for new readers: yes, the categories at the top only include July 2008 on. May 2002-July 2008 (Ye Olde Blogge) is here but not categorized. But I trust you. You’re smart and can use the archives.

The inside of a refrigerator.
Things that are cold?
A full bathtub.
Things that are white?
The dishwasher door.
Things that are appliances?
Inside a tumbling pile of cables and speakers.
Things that could electrify you?
Under the covers in the middle of the night.
Places you didn’t expect to find a small cat!
Running, tae kwon do, yoga.
Writing, current clients, new clients.
Business trips, fun trips, having friends over.
Things that have kept you from blogging!
The landscapers blowing out the underground sprinkler lines.
Signs that you live in the suburbs?
The highways full of winterized boats going home.
Signs that you live near the coast?
Neighbors jumping in the leaf piles.
An extra hour of sleep on Saturday night.
Signs that it’s officially fall!
Happy. Peaceful. Relaxing. Productive.
What you’re hoping fall will be!

If religion’s not your thing, please pass on. If it is, here’s a rare post on it from me. I tend not to because I consider it highly personal – both for me and for you. But it means a lot to me.
Mostly I’m giving you Cliffs Notes for a recent article by Cathleen Falsani on the intersection of social media and prayer:
And if I can add a couple that mean a lot to me,
Some things need to happen in person. But a little extra can help you along the way too, and if any of these do that for you, it can only be good.
