Bourbon Between a long weekend and a five day pilates bootcamp I'm feeling relaxed, a smidge healthier and firmly planted in the middle of summer. For locals, I'm a huge fan of Fuse Pilates studio  - their pricing is just right and their classes are amazing. The bootcamp was just the jumpstart I needed to get my butt into gear. If only I didn't love wine so much, but, more on that later. I'm going to spend the weekend with my tender muscles, recovering, reading and catching up on my shows - perfect rainy weather activities! Let's get this party started though, here's some links to jumpstart your weekend and get your jam on!

Wearing your 80 hour work week as a badge of honor is so out. Just because you're working a lot, doesn't mean you're working smart.

Got a disgruntled employee or teammate? Here's three reasons she might be frustrated.

20 ways to hit on women. Spoiler: be a decent human being with manners and common sense.

The New York Times loves bashing on DC's food scene. But when The Washington Post did it I went apoplectic. Jessica Sidman over at Washington City Paper said everything I wanted to and more.

I've been jamming to ZZ Ward a lot lately - good #GSD jams with funky beats, and that husky voice...man! Enjoy your weekend lovahs!
