The Cynical Girl: The Week Ahead

---

The Week Ahead Posted: 29 Apr 2012 03:45 AM PDT Hello, everyone. May is such a busy month for me. I will be in NYC, Plano, Maine, San Francisco and London. Really. It’s fabulous travel sprinkled with visits from friends. I am really lucky, these days. I cannot complain about life except that I will miss my cats so much. Boo. How are you? What’s new? Any new jobs or news? Don’t say I never ask. This week I will be blogging about men’s fashion, retail jobs and sports. Follow me on Twitter to keep up with my travel drama. If you’re new to Twitter, say hello so I can follow you!
