Hump Day Distractions

Poor Abe.
I spent most of this morning in a full fledged U.S. Supreme Court geek-out sesh, so I'm just gonna get right to the distractions (so you can get right to your humping:) Happy Wednesday my friends!!

* Hey Mike! When can I move in!?
* A yummy looking pasta salad for your next BBQ
* And for dessert...
* When smart people sneakily outsmart the rest of us...
* A thought provoking piece on new motherhood for all you Moms and Mommies-to-be.
* Move over Kate, there's another lovely lady absolutely NAILING this royal wedding thing (via exPress-o)
* Creative advertising makes me smile.
* An inside look at something you probably never thought much about, but will be amazed by.
* Few things more fabulous than an outdoor movie in NYC.
* Don't be hatin on comic sans people.
* Does THIS product actually work? Because I have a real problem with spilling chocolate syrup on my sneakers...
* And in honor of today's historic SCOTUS decision, THIS Dad's letter will warm your heart.

... and sizes.

As someone who has experienced the unadulterated joy of marrying my soul mate, who geeks out for the Supreme Court's wisdom and who believes in love above all,  this week's Supreme Court docket has my fullest attention.

Geek out / Sneak out.

It's the Peep-les Court.

Sometimes, I wonder if I got into the right profession (law) and then a day like yesterday happens (healthcare) and I remember that I am the Geek Queen of Dork Universe and love analyzing legislation intended for the public welfare under the lens of the U.S. Constitution. I worship SCOTUS. In case you live under a rock, read a bit about the impact of yesterday’s truly historic case HERE, HERE and HERE. No matter where you stand on the issue of universal healthcare, it’s important to be in the know!

And now that we’ve finished our civics lesson for the day… 

...I'm sneakin out of here. Have a swimmy, sunshiney summer weekend!
