Friday Open Thread

What A Week. In case you missed anything, we’ve been:

Getting vengeance again, lashing out, hacking Anthropologie

• Taking a road trip to Salvation Mountain, dreaming with Shirley Temple, baking Almanzo’s apple pie

• Writing YA and reading bad valentines

• Saying “fuck it” and getting Bane Brain

• Making art, not coupons

What do we love today? I love my friends, my dog’s floppy ear (the one that stands up has fallen briefly out of favor), warm red wine, greasy pizza, smart people, fantasizing about summer, the struggle-twerking that has replaced all other forms of aerobic exercise in my life, Nicolas Cage photoshops, my recent loss of innocence and the weekend. You? Happy Valentine’s Day, singles day, Friday. See you next week.
