Iconic

Blokey and I had the unique pleasure of meeting Audi and Sal, who are both total style icons for me, yesterday.  They are as awesome in real life as in person.  And funny.  I am not a bashful person, but I was a bit nervous (in an excited way) to meet such stylish ladies.  Blokey was nice enough to take a picture:

This was my attempt at being intentional with black (or intentional with pink/purple?)

I rarely leave the house on a school night, and it was totally worth it.  But I paid for it this morning, rushing from the gym to a meeting to teaching.  I got to my first class on time, but I had left my notes in my office.  Well, nothing that a quick run to my office and a basket of candy couldn't remedy (Yes, I am a sucker for giving drugstore candy, when it is 50% off from Duane Reade, to my students.  What?  A bit of sugar is good for the brain).

I am a bit behind on commenting on some of the blogs I read regularly. I apologize and I hope to catch up soon.  The semester is kicking into full swing now, and I still need to finish and then start a conference paper within the next four weeks.
