Each weekend, I post a readable, a watchable, and a listenable of which I'm fond. You can choose what happens next. Earlier volumes can be found here.

I do have a day job which doesn't wrap itself around the search for the perfect cupcake or blog post title or cutesie use of the word "rabbit." However my online life often influences and provides great content for my professional life. This surely includes the blog of Michael Hyatt. He's the CEO of Thomas Nelson, which is one of the largest publishing companies in the world. He has a phenomenal blog that includes fairly brilliant thoughts on life balance, social media, leadership and even fitness tips (which I may not linger on in my RSS feed...) My favorite post right now is How to Shave Ten Hours Off Your Work Week. I'm trying.

This may be my favorite movie of all time...at least top 5. I thought it might fall off the list when David Duchovny filmed a 2nd X-Files movie or admitted to a sex addiction, but it didn't. I just love it. I always cry and I always laugh. One reason it's beloved is my best friend and her husband are played out in this movie by Bonnie Hunt and James Belushi. Another is I'm looking for a serendipitous love story of my own (minus the heart condition.) Bonus? You'll want to fly to Chicago immediately after the credits.

I admit it yet again. I love folk-pop. And iTunes knows it, with it's geniusy recommendations that make me drop dollar after dollar. Curse you Steve Jobs and your manipulation! A Fine Frenzy is just that - fine. And not in a 6-pack-ab-Pattinson-hair kind of way. More like wake-up-and-realize-you-still-have-an-hour-until-the-alarm kind of way. Fine. This song, Near to You, is beyond lovely.
