Obsessed

I'm obsessed with the following things these days.

1. PODCASTS. Here are a few of my favs
           A. Pop culture Happy hour. They are so funny, and I am pretty sure that one of the guys in the podcast is my gay bff in the making. In one of the podcasts he was discussing how Steel Magnolia's is one of the most quotable movies of all times. I swoon!




         B.This American Life- My friend Kelsey told me about this, and it was the best suggestion EVER! These are full of great stories and a mixture of human interest stories, short stories, and fascinating topics. Try this out. You will not be disappointed.

2. I just read this great book Mrs. Kennedy and Me. (It was so good! I read it one day.)
 

He called her Mrs. Kennedy. She called him Mr. Hill.

For four years, from the election of John Fitzgerald Kennedy in November 1960 until after the election of Lyndon Johnson in 1964, Clint Hill was the Secret Service agent assigned to guard the glamorous and intensely private Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy. During those four years, he went from being a reluctant guardian to a fiercely loyal watchdog and, in many ways, her closest friend.

Now, looking back fifty years, Clint Hill tells his story for the first time, offering a tender, enthralling, and tragic portrayal of how a Secret Service agent who started life in a North Dakota orphanage became the most trusted man in the life of the First Lady who captivated first the nation and then the world.
