On Friday night we went to the Lambda Legal benefit, which I didn’t even know was happening until the day before. Luckily, we had a friend who helped hook us up with tickets. (But I promise…once I have a job, I will donate to Lambda Legal and make up for all the free booze and cheese I consumed.) I’m so so glad we got to go, and not just because I like to hang out with lawyers. This was a really great year for marriage equality, and for once I actually got to enjoy the benefits instead of just celebrating other states’ changes from afar.

The event was packed with “celebrities” like Camilla Taylor, who made a big win in the 7th Circuit recently, and Beth White, my county’s clerk who kept her office open extra hours to let a ton of people get married in June (including me). OK, maybe they’re not celebrities by most people’s standards, but they are to me and to most of the people at the benefit!

Needless to say, there were lots of happy people and lots of celebration on Friday night. I can’t wait to see what we’re celebrating next year!

I’m happy to report the forecast is quite spring-like here in Indianapolis this week. This outfit is from last week, and I’m hoping it’s the last time you’ll see me in tights for quite awhile.

Today was a busy day so I don’t have time to write as much of my witty banter as usual, but let me take a moment to remind you of the 2 exciting things currently happening in this corner of the Interwebs: First, there’s the $100 H&M giftcard giveaway; you still have a week to enter! Second, there’s the Looking Lucky Style Challenge, which is just a little something to give you outfit inspiration this month (and maybe you’ll win some shopping money in the process).

Oh, and here’s a bonus third thing: In case you missed it yesterday, be sure to check out my budget report for March! It’s a doozie.
