Happy Thursday! My night will be full of luchadores and cheap beer, both of which I am so badly in need of. Then, the rest of my week will consist of easing back into my enormous pile of to-do design projects, nearly all of which I am behind on. (I blame summer and my complete inability to focus on anything when I could be outside not staring at a billion tiny pixels for 9 hours.)
The only other relevant thing I have to say is that I wore my new ring today.
Some things I learned:
- Not for use with sweaters.
- Put ring on after putting jacket on.
- Do not reach into front pocket while in line for coffee unless you want to look like you have crabs when you violently struggle to remove it from your pants.
I like the ring, but it is definitely the Trophy Wife of statement rings.

This was one of my favorite songs several years ago, and stumbling upon it again this week was definitely a highlight. Fiery Furnaces forever!
I’m not super familiar with Ratatat, though they’ve been recommended to me several times, but this song makes me chair-dance.
