Ok, Chicago.  I get that you’re a chill place.  You’re a badass and you’re tough and you don’t take no crap from nobody.  I got it already.  Now can you lighten up a bit.  Seriously.  It’s almost April, and I’m still wearing my down parka.  I just can’t take it anymore.  I’ve got all these lovely dresses and cropped dress pants to wear to work.  I’ve got beaches to visit and ice cream cones to buy.  Just get it together, okay.  I don’t want to have to tell you twice.

Workin’ Hard

Hey kiddos!  We’re sorry we’ve been a bit absent for most of the week.  Mommy and Daddy just needed a little break.  We were riding along just fine — having a great weekend, getting stuff done, basking in some great luck — and then we got slapped in the face with some serious head colds.  DANG!  But don’t be sad, friends.  We’re getting better, and we’ll be back next week with more super-duper Westervin content.  We ain’t quitters!  In fact, I’ve got quite an exciting day ahead… at my new job!  That’s right!  This little bumble bee has got herself a real job.  Not just being pretty all day ;) but being pretty (it’s my first position that requires looking nice and professional) and productive!  Monday through Friday, 9 to 5, babies!  But just because Mommy gets to bring home the bacon doesn’t mean she’s abandoned you.  We’ll still be here every weekday to delight and divert!
