How was your weekend? Ours was lovely. We discovered Mad Men and iced green tea lattes. Both have changed our lives. I’m changing the name of the blog again. It’s now “Mad Men and the Dog”. Or “Mad Girl and the Dog”. That’s probably more like it.

We did manage to get some things done. Non-blogworthy things like getting our lives in order. You know, like cleaning out the bathroom medicine cupboard. And the garage. Oh, the garage. Fun stuff. I’m also getting ready to move the ol’ blog to a different platform. I have no clue what I’m doing and it’s going to be amazing.

Beings that I didn’t take a picture of the expired bottle of cough syrup from 2010 (Yes, I’m a pharmacist. Why do you ask?), I’m digging out some ol’ Independence day inspiration from the archives. It’s make me sad when lovely posts get forgotten. Enjoy!

Who’s excited to watch fireworks this week? Want to photograph some of those fireworks? Nate has some tips for you. My tips are wear bug spray and drink green tea lattes to help you stay awake. Also try not to sit next to annoying people. I’m horrible at that last one.
