Have you ever won tickets to a PETA event?

Have you ever won tickets to a PETA event? When you are sitting in traffic and you hear the radio announcer ask you to call in to win tickets – you never think you might actually have a chance to win those tickets. Well, it just so happens I called into WRFG, a local Indie Format station in Atlanta, Georgia, during the evening drive home and was pleasantly surprised that I was the correct caller and was notified I won two tickets. Tickets to what? Well, the tickets were to a PETA event happening in Atlanta that weekend and the announcer who gave me the great news was Melody Paris who is known for being passionate about animal rights.   Learning about PETA - I also have a passion for learning about new things and this certainly seemed liked a great time to find out more about what types of events are hosted by PETA. Some fans of the HBO Show, Sex and the City, only think of PETA in the infamous scene when the character Samantha wore a white fur to New York Fashion Week and alle

Can you still arrive on time during Daylight Savings time in Atlanta ?

Yes you can still arrive on time in spite of Daylight Savings time, and in spite of Atlanta traffic, and in spite of warm temperatures. With daylight savings time happening this Sunday, March 12th at 2am Atlanta, Georgia prepares for the business culture to adjust their traffic commutes to still try and reach the office at their designated time. Setting your clock back is not a valid excuse to arrive late in Atlanta, nor is the super warm temperature, or the horrific traffic. Because no matter what the temperature gauge reads, or what accident happened right in front of you, or how your iPhone failed to let you know the correct time... work is still ongoing. However, if you have ever sat on I-285 West at 730am or been in Marietta on 75 south trying to make it to a meeting by Perimeter Mall at 8am...then you know Atlanta traffic sucks, and getting up earlier is not fun, and it is always a hot tire about to burst on the Atlanta Freeway. Still, the weather is a huge reason why so man

Are flat shoes sexy?

Are flat shoes sexy? Lovers of high heels often associate the high heeled shoe with being sexy and alluring. For years women have tip toed, and twisted, and tilted ever so uncomfortably in the highest of heels. The perfect date, your first prom, and your first real job interview probably all have a little high heel story intertwined. While there is no shoe style that can replace the high heel it is time to take a look at the no heeled cousin to the high heel. Thus, on this blog from this blogger there is a dedicated turning point as we prepare for a flat shoe review! Awaiting arrival of the flat shoe- Today I ordered some simply flat; yet, super fashionable shoes. I am anxiously awaiting their arrival so we can do a flat shoe review. Typically, flat shoes are not on my radar. However, lately shoe lovers are turning more and more to flat shoe options and these flat shoes on the market today are looking quite fetching. Flats are emerging that are budget and eco- friendly. Fashion Ne

The bar is a great form of escapism

Sitting at the bar is a very familiar place for some people. I have memories from younger years when hanging out at the bar was as natural as breathing. Often we would start at the bar and order a round then continue to the dance floor once the round had done its magic. That’s right the bar is kind of magical, when the intoxication begins so does the hallucination. And the dark lights and endless supply of bottles on display begin to taunt and tease simultaneously. The bartenders make their mixes look so inviting as they pour, and shake, and combine their potions. Even an innocent Virgin Daiquiri looks sinister when they plop a big strawberry on the side and add a cherry on top. You become hooked with what nifty concoction you can order that will delight your senses. For some the draw of a good bar is simply marvelous. Different bars all over the world- Now, I understand across the world there are all kinds of bars- from the most elegant spots, to the more hole in
