It has been a few weeks since I have been able to do one of these posts with all craziness of the holidays, but I'm back to share a few things that have caught my fancy lately.

Pantone Color of the Year 2013

Washington Post

So, this is old news since this was announced a few weeks ago, but I'm still pretty happy about it.  Green is my favorite color, so when Pantone announced that emerald would be the color of the year for 2013, I was ecstatic.  Not only will it ensure that my favorite color will be all over the place in the next year, but I think its a sign that good things are coming for 2013.

Windows 8 Touchscreens

I've been in need of a new laptop for some time now, so Brian surprised me (kind of, I'm really difficult to surprise) with a new beauty for Christmas.  I know that pcs are considered pretty lame by the youngins, but after using Brian's Mac for the last year or so, I knew I wanted to stick with the pc.  I guess I'm just lame.  Anyway, I'm still getting used to the new system, but I love having a touchscreen integrated into my laptop.

American Horror Story

Since I have a lot of free time, I watch a lot of shows on Netflix.  This week, I discovered the dark and fascinating world of American Horror Story.  Even though what happens in the house is pretty creepy, I still wish I could live in that amazing house.  I can't wait to watch season 2!

What are you loving this week?  Anyone else use Windows 8; love it or hate it?
