neither

It's been exactly 4 weeks since my last post and I'm realizing that this blog has turned in to something that is neither creative nor happy. I guess I'm searching for my blog's voice. I don't want it to merely be a regurgitation of other people's posts - i.e. "pointless reblogging". My husband, who will affectionately be referred to as Ebert on this blog, recently shared this podcast with me about "turbo charging your blog" and it got me thinking a lot about what I want to do, or should be doing, with this here blog of mine. If you are a blogger or enjoy reading blogs than I encourage you to listen to what John Gruber and Merlin Mann are suggesting, which is to "find your obsession and follow it."
So, while I'm finding my obsession I apologize that I might be intermittently absent from this blog. I want to get better at something, I just don't know what that something is yet.
In the meantime, if there is anyone reading these posts, check out the links to the right of some of my favorite blogs.

30th birthday!

My 30th Birthday is in six months and I want to throw a party! Here are some great party themes that I currently have crushes on.
An outdoor lawn party is perfect for the summer time.
Decorating with yellow and sunflowers is cute and summery, but I am a girly girl for pink.
To celebrate the year I was born a 1980's party would be like a totally rad idea.
This ice cream parlour party will keep everyone cool during the dog days of summer.
A cocktail party is always a classic idea, as well as a wine and cheese soiree.
I am loving the idea of a vintage party!
