I am currently curled up on my couch, in my comfy clothes, and we are watching a recording of the most recent SNL.  (So far, it’s pretty good!).

Point being — I’m home.  And it feels glorious.

I spent much of my flight out and my flight home reading both Amy Poehler and Tina Fey’s books.  They are both wildly fantastic.  Reading their books — those funny, savvy, smart and powerful women — it’s been sort of phenomenal.  It’s inspiring, encouraging — and best of all, hilarious.

I have been staring at this blog post, completely unable to form sentences due to fatigue.  Traveling really takes it out of me.  I really wish I could keep writing about strong female role models and successful women.  But I am so wiped, I can’t even focus.

I guess the thing I wanted to say — with many more words than I’m using right now — would be that strong women who have made a difference are the coolest.  I go to work every day, the only female upper management in my company, and it can be challenging on many levels.  There are things that are nearly impossible to explain to male counterparts, or even my husband. (Not because he doesn’t want to understand, but because he just can’t).  Reading those books, about two seriously talented and incredible women — it helps keep the humor.

And man, did I laugh a lot.  Much better than reading things that bring you down.
