This American Life

Have y'all seen this show?  I'm pretty sure it was only in production for two seasons but it is AMAZING.  I've mentioned before that I love NPR and This American Life is one of their radio shows that was made into a TV show a few years back.  It's now on Netflix Instant and you should check it out!

Reasons why TAL is the best:
1. IRA GLASS
2. Crazy men who don't fully understand the implications of cloning a pet bull.
3. They're short enough to not bore you, but engaging to capture your attention.
4. Ira's voice.
5. The great conversations that always start.
6. Talk to an Iraqi
7. Ira's glasses.

Yep.  We're going to Jamaica!!!  It's a bit last minute, but we found a DEAL and we got a yes from Uncle Sam.  So we'll be off!  Now, to spend the next 4 weeks making sure I look like that in a bikini.  ;)

So Inspired

This weekend, I attended Teach for America's 20th Anniversary Summit.  More on all of that later, but here's a piece of inspiration.

Consolation Message

MMS from Hubster:

I am sorry my dog is a bad pooper... Thank you for being so wonderful and patient... We can BBQ Sammy this weekend.




He always knows how to make me smile.  :)  And I've got the BBQ sauce ready.  Anyone want to join us?
