madness

Fast times. The last few weeks have whizzed by. Delightfully, have found a new job that keeps my pockets and wardrobe well oiled. That, however, does not spell good news for my blog and have been scolded by my most devote of readers.

This reader had many wonderful suggestions for future blog posts. All of which will be obliged asap.

I find myself getting pretty restless lately. See, once you visualize your future, you need it to hurry up and be present. Anyway, in this state I’ve started downloading episodes of Mad Men. Heard of it? Of course you have. 

I was fairly excited to tune in, and by fairly I mean I waited a week until 25 episodes had downloaded so I could watch to my heart’s content. At first, I was a bit snoozy. What exactly made this program a must-see? The costumes and sets were brilliant, but ummmm, where is the drama? Then I realized I have been bred to consume shows with so much fast-paced violent drama action shamwow that my eyes were crossed by the end of it. 

Now I’m addicted to the quiet drama on Mad Men. You should be too.

I find myself painting my lips red and experimenting with victory curls, questioning if I’m a Marilyn or a Jackie and ordering mint julep drinks at cocktail hour. I don’t know whether to love or hate Don Draper. Tune in and let me know what you think.
