Happy Birthday, Katie

Today's a huge day for my sweet Kate. She turns 40. In 40 years Katie has accomplished more than most people accomplish in a lifetime. She graduated from college (first woman in her family, I believe?), has six kids, and has made friends in many places, including the three continents where she has lived and one more where she we to get a baby. I feel lucky to be with her and have been with her. Except today.

Today I don't get to be with her. I wish she had her backpack and hiking shoes on and was sleeping on the ground with me in Sweden. What a horrible birthday to miss.

I miss you Katie and hope you have a wonderful day. It will be wonderful if, even for a moment, you realize how amazing, and how loved, you are.

Where to buy glasses

Check out glasses.com if you're in the market for a pair of glasses. The prices are unbeatable for a great quality product. Each pair comes with polycarbonate lenses and anti-glare coatings. The service is also untouchable. If you don't like your glasses, send them back. Free shipping both ways. 1-800 CONTACTS is changing the way people buy eyewear. Again.

My favorite men's glasses are these Smith Broadcasts in matte blue.

My favorite women's glasses will be up later this week (also Smith). But these Oakley Permissives are a close second.
