this was a good week

This was a good week.  Here's why:

•  This week flew.  Just me?  I got a lot done, and I'm happy it's the weekend again.  

•  The new Lane Bryant lingerie ad using decidedly atypical lingerie models is giving me life.  They're gorgeous.

•  And still, that ad isn't giving me as much life as this photographer's photo series, Strong is the New Pretty -- she took photographs of her daughters to show them how beautiful they are because of their strengths and interests.  They look so fierce, I decided to turn my lens on Alex in her karate gi, above -- and I may just go ahead and get that shot framed.

•  Speaking of photo series, I love this one of dads jumping in suits next to their daughters.  Marcus, Alex, get ready, this might be next ...

•  And yet another photo series:  portraits of famous artists and their cats.  Even though I am emphatically not a cat person, I have to admit these portraits are pretty fantastic.

•  Maysoon Zayid's got 99 problems ... palsy is just one.  She's an actor, she's an activist, she's a storyteller -- and she's funny as hell.  Grab a cuppa and watch, because she's truly a force of nature.

•  Dude.  Handbags made of LEGO.  I don't even know how to express my unbridled joy that this exists. (Time to start saving ...)

•  And finally, the song of the day:  Test pilot, by TV on the Radio.  I just loved the imagery in this video. It's peaceful and beautiful.

Have an amazing weekend, friends.  See you next week.
