I'll be spending Labor Day Weekend traveling cross-country with a toddler, an infant, a grumpy (just conjecturing, here) husband and two-and-a-half months' worth of stuff.

Jealous?

For those of you doing something a little more on the "relaxing" side, a little inspiration:

 Today in Luxury Items That I Cannot Afford But Like To Dream About Anyway: this. Ugggggh it's so pretty.

 Russell Brand's piece on Robin Williams' death is a must-read. "Is it melancholy to think that a world that he can't live in must be broken?"

 This video of a man who doesn't realize he is sitting in an audience surrounded by people whose lives he saved fifty years earlier will bring you to tears.

So I totally didn't think I'd be one of those baby head accessories people. You know, the stretchy headbands with the big flower poufs on them? They're adorable; they're just not really my thing.

Anyway, it turns out that I am SO one of those people. I just had to discover that accessories beyond flower poufs exist. They are head wraps, they are moderately functional (for warmth purposes) in addition to being the cutest things I have ever seen, and I now own three.

(You can order the ones pictured above from the Stripes Boutique in Campbell, CA - this is also where I picked up this gold leaf headband, which is an obvious essential.)

 We had dinner at Apple. It was as cool as you'd expect (they give you free apples and have a spectacular burrito bar, and there is a street called "Results Way," which is amazing). P.S. Still pretty excited about my new glasses.
