wednesday wonderfulness

Well, it's a bumper crop this week, since I've not only had two weeks to gather links, but also since I've spent a TON of time on the internet this week. So. Onto the goodies.

• I discovered bad boyfriend via @dkny's twitter stream, and I must say: I think his blog should be required reading for guys AND girls: guys so they understand the mind games girls play; girls so they realize just how pathetic they're being.
• I love this rant about paying the writer. More creatives need to think like this guy: OUR TIME IS WORTH IT.
• I need to try to make some mondrian cake!
• loving these photos from a cigar party. So evocative.
• um, I think Heidi is rocking this look. Fantastic.
