Well, that feels nice

July 6, 2011 by Miranda 28 Comments

So, yesterday the for-real Ricki Lake followed me on Twitter. And I followed back, obvs. While being a fan-girl and grinning at my computer screen for the duration of naptime.

Today?

I get notice that my post “When you can’t say no” is being spotlighted on BlogHer.

I honestly think I’m about two steps away from doing a cartwheel across my living room.

Short on time? Save this post for later.

No more lost tabs, random screenshots, or digging through your browser history. Save this post and do future-you a favor.

(It's like a bookmark, but...not.)

If I could manage to magically drop 15 pounds by the time I wake up in the morning? This would be the most awesome week since my honeymoon.

    Love that things are making your days bright!

    Interesting tidbit: I served Ricki Lake lunch at a Greek restaurant here when I used to be a waitress.
