Wow, I Found the Girl I want to Marry →
She’s on Craigslist, strangely enough.. and in Washington DC — livejamie I love it when I see some woman give the rest of us a good name. Instead of say…the opposite. Tearing men down, instead of supporting them. I won’t name names ;)

A blog highlighting great finds from Etsy. — joelaz I love tumbling down the rabbit hole on the internet, but I also love having my own hand-picked rabbit hole, peppered with bits of cool things found by the people I’m following.

An Interview with Craig from Craigslist →
