here they are, i've hoarded them for long enough.  please pardon the language in some of these.  i had to post anyway because a) they read my mind and b) they are so ding-dang funny.

oh, and clicking on the song/article/photo links will totally be worth it.

links from chris

chris and i used to send letters to each other way back when we were just friends and well into our dating life.  then once we lived together, he would leave me little notes on a yellow legal pad every morning before he left for work.  well, now we have kids.  which means we are busy.  and tired.  so our little notes to each other have turned into emails.  chris loves twitter (it confuses me).  so throughout the week, he keeps up on all of his sports/entertainment/news in twitterland and sends me links to things he knows i will love.  i look forward to these links.  they are our modern day love letter.

here are some of the gems he sent my way.

a) these gorgeous photos.  click the link for more.

dancers among us

b) the best cam and mitchell quotes from modern family

cam: I’m sort of like Costco. I’m big, I’m not fancy and I dare you to not like me.

c) andrew bird and tift merritt singing "if i needed you"

d) tom hanks performs slam poetry about the 80's show, full house

e) this tweet by lena dunham (of the hbo show, girls)

Lena Dunham (@lenadunham)

I just saw Wilson Cruz aka My So-Called Life's Ricky Vasquez out the car window & Promiscuous Girl was playing on the radio & the sun shone.

f) this article about henri matisse.  he knows me well.

g) the twelve best ryan adams songs according to paste magazine.

h) this tweet from election day.
