Phantom Ants
I didn't say we have an ant problem, because I am not sure it is a problem. Just a couple of ants here and there and a lot of little lonely guys making their way across the vast of my kitchen counter or bathroom floor.
The other day I came to the sink, and my favorite glass was sitting outside of the sink. Inside was the remnants of ginger ale, and about 10 ants. There were zero ants on the outside of the glass. How the heck did they get inside there?
Yesterday I was sitting at the dining room table working and one single ant crawled across the table...all by himself. How did he get up there?
The thing is I am not complaining. We could have an ant problem. We could put down a spoon with a hint of peanut butter on it, and come back to a whole community of ants...but that is not what is happening. Instead we have a random sampling of ants in a random sampling of our house.
The problem is since these visitors showed up about a week ago every time I clean them up or kill one, for the rest of the day I feel them. They are on me. One is crawling on my back. I feel one on my leg. I have asked Jonathan three times in the last week "Is there an ant on my neck?"...there never is. I feel them on my face too, but I am too embarrassed to ask. So even though we don't have an ant problem I have a different problem...phantom ants.

The World Needs You to Do What You Love
The greatest change happens because of people that are deeply passionate,and have a great love for the work they do.
If you want to make a difference in the world, the single most important thing you can do is consciously and deliberately choose to do work that you are passionate about.
No other choice can have a greater impact on the planet, or your life.
If you’re doing work that’s boring, you probably won’t make much of an impact. You might provide people with some amount of value. Enough to pay your rent, enough to get by. But you won’t be inciting change. And you certainly won’t be inspiring others.
If you’re doing boring work, chances are you do just enough to not get fired.
But if you do work that excites you, keeps you up at night, and fulfills you… you’ll do more. You’ll give yourself to it completely. You’ll put in extra time, more energy, more passion. Because it’s worth it. It’s satisfying.
At the end of the day you’ll think: “My time was well spent today.”

Human Dictionary
By invented I mean it popped into my head this morning, and I am pretty sure I have never heard it before. So it could have already existed or I could have an invented a word this morning.
Are you ready for it?
Lopo (pronounced low-po): A low ponytail; a ponytail worn at the nape of the neck
I know.
Genius.
These are the kinds internal dialogs that I have morning as I get ready in silence while my husband sleeps peacefully.

Hello You!
Why is she so adorable? I just love her. I often think about the one day I will meet Kristen Bell, and then I know in that moment that it will be my goal to convince her in my one minute introduction how totally funny and fun and cute I am. And what an amazing BFF I would be. And then we will exchange phone numbers and take turns going to each other houses to watch Project Runway and eat popcorn - while we decide where we are going to lunch the next day. What? A girl can dream.
One day Kristen...one day.
