One cool shoe box that already looked like a boom box + bored kids = weirdest living diorama ever made.

He calls it “Adult Jack in the Box”
I call it funny.

May I check you in?
Happily the 2nd Annual Blogger Ball went off without a hitch. Everyone came, and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. Of course how could you not when Embassy Suites pulled out all the stops. I was thrilled how my vision for the room decor came together as a backdrop the amazing [...]

So if you worked in the apparel industry and you were in Indonesia on business, and a driver picked you up and took you to the middle of nowhere to visit a factory to negotiate prices and contracts…and after a little while they walked you outside to a shallow grave hole and a headstone sign [...]

I have been more than a little busy this summer. I co-founded and launched the Smartly websites, created and launched the BlogCrush website (with my co-founder Suz), launched my MarcyDesigns business and I have some other hush-hush projects in the works as well. One of the big projects of the season has been creating and [...]

Came across this this mailbox sign in my town while on a walk.
I am sure the mailman just loves being lectured to every time he drops off the mail.

He is twelve today.
Him and his blue laced Doc Martins, his brace face smile and unearthly comedic timing.
At twelve he is both brilliant and stupid at the same time.
He is both funny and gross. He is charming and silly.
He is handsome and cute. He is innocent and worldly.
He is knowing and yet naive.
I tell him [...]

So how was your first day of ‘summer’ Marcy?  (read this post to make sense).
