Things I am grateful for this week:

My parents are in town for a long weekend. I don’t have a picture of us that was unanimously approved, as every single one features at least one of us covered in sunscreen, drinking and looking drunk, shoveling food into our face, and/or sweaty from a workout (that person is me in all of them). But I can’t wait to spend a few days laughing, eating and listening to my mom tell me how to fix my life (whether I ask her or not).

THIS DOG FACE. My parents’ mutt Rigel looks like a cow mated with a golden retriever and I love him so much.

My mom asked if I wanted this painting my grandmother had commissioned of my dad. (I declined.)

I’m turning 30 in less than a month and am having an existential crisis about it (so original, right)?! This week, I coped with it by dying my hair super blonde and getting up every morning while it was still dark out to take classes called “Tabata” and “Body Challenge.” It was usually me and super hot girls wearing Cartier Love bracelets that I imagine consume the same number of calories in one day that I take in before 10am. And I only slipped in a pool of my own sweat ONCE.

This bar cart Tony built for me! DO I LOOK LIKE A PINTEREST CHAMPION OR AN ALCOHOLIC??

The frozen negroni(s) I’ve slurped down this week. We went to a dinner party at a friend’s house recently where they made these in their Vitamix, and now I’ve made one (or two or four) in my Vitamix more frequently than I’d like to admit since that fateful night.

The Instagram feed Classic Texts. It’s how your favorite fictional characters from TV, movies, books and theater would text. Brilliant and hilarious.

Valentine’s Day ranunculus going strong!

Tippi’s adorable turtleneck/straightjacket that helps keep the devil inside her.

My friend Leah applied The Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up to her underwear drawer with her buddy Nicole. And videotaped it. There are cocktails, there are laughs and there are tears:
