// I’m so excited to be linking up with Crystal this week for her first ever Currently Loving Link-Up! I love reading Crystal’s blog, and getting to see all the great links bloggers share each Friday. This link-up is perfect because it gives me an easy way to find all the links people are sharing each week!
// Project Runway. Yep – I’ve never seen it before, but my roommate had me watching it last night and I admit, I’m a little obsessed. But maybe that’s because I haven’t seen Alyssa Milano since Charmed and that’s pretty exciting in itself.
// If you don’t understand the satire in this, I’m here to tell you: it’s. a. joke. And I love every last second of it.
I know a lot of Taylor Swift fans are upset about her new CD because they feel like she’s selling out. First, growing up does not equal selling out. She’s not 17 anymore, so you can’t really expect her to be writing the same music she did five years ago; and I can say that from experience because if you were to read the things I wrote in high-school, you wouldn’t believe that I was the person who wrote them. And even if that weren’t the reasoning behind a change in music, even if she is doing it because she’s conforming to a more popular genre, so what? Why does that make her a bad artist? If anything, it makes her a smart businesswoman. Second, everyone was up in arms when all the woman wrote about was ex-boyfriends (and I admit, I made fun too – my first reaction to 22 was oh my God it’s not about a boy), but now that she’s writing about something different you’re upset that her music changed.
// Are you a writer trying to make it as a freelancer? You need to read this letter Anastasia wrote on A Little Opulent.
// I spent four years waitressing, and let me just say that my back has never hurt as much as it does now, working a desk job. Granted, my desk has a strange shape which prevents me from pulling my chair fully in – which leaves me leaning forward to reach the keyboard. But these stretches for anyone working a desk job, from Holly guest posting on A Cup of Jo are my new favorite.
So tell me: what are you loving this week?
