Lazy, Hazy Days

What’s on the iPod: Silence, You by A Plastic Rose

I slept in! Yes! Well, I’d like to teach myself how to sleep really in, like say nine or so. My “sleeping in” resembles 7:30 instead of 6:30. I can’t help it. I love getting up early in the summer. Too much day to enjoy.

I’m not taking today off entirely. I have an interview for an article that has to happen this week. But I’m only committed to about 30 minutes of work. The rest will be spent on reconnecting with clients, marketing for new ones, networking, and repotting my shamrock plant. We have our priorities.

While I’m out repotting, here are some link you might enjoy:

Georganna Hancock’s Posterous: A useful link to templates setting up social media projects. And in general, I just love Georganna’s wit and attitude.

Jennifer Williamson’s Catalystblogger: This post in particular had me laughing, relating, and discussing it offline. Jen’s got a great business sense. May need to work on that talking-to-strangers bit. (Just kidding, Jen)

Yo Prinzel over at All Freelance Writing: She’s got the final word on discrimination – of all sorts. Yo is someone I want to hang out with in general, but the entire site is a must-read.

Jenn Mattern’s All Freelance Writing: Jenn’s the ringleader over at AFW (her title is “ringleader”) and this article is another one of those laugh-out-loud, relatable experiences. I want to hang out with Jenn, too. And I will. Next week.

Devon Ellington’s Ink in My Coffee: The entire blog is worth reading. She’s been my first read every morning since she posted her first thoughts. It’s a look inside a hard-working, successful writerly life, and it’s a large bandwidth of friendship. If you read and comment regularly, she adopts you.
