Top Ten in 2010

In honor of the new year and new decade, it seems apropos to kick off my first post of 2010 with a top ten list. So ..... here are the top ten things the ladies of Crazy Savvy are looking forward to in the coming year:

10. Crazy Savvy website, 2.0. We so love our website. (Well, okay, maybe we're a bit biased ... ) And that's why we're excited to unveil its next iteration early this year. More content, more photos, interactive case studies ... prepare to be amazed.

9. It's going to be a jam-packed year in the world of sports. We're super excited for the Winter Olympics ... and yours truly is hoping for a Colts - Vikings Superbowl. (Erin is rolling her eyes and wondering how I can follow football so passionately.) I'm gearing up my brackets for the annual father-daughter March Madness extravaganza (the prize? $10, wasabi peas, and bragging rights for the next 365 days .... priceless). And in the realm of soccer, this summer is the World Cup .... Given my fondness for certain team members, I will be pulling for Team Spain.

8. As we get in the '10 groove, we're excited to partner with some great new clients and embark on some nifty new projects here at C/S. From web design to branding initiatives to ad campaign copy, we've got some fun things to look forward to as we start our year! Check our blog for updates and more ....

7. In the realm of beauty and fashion, my wonderful business partner is excited to begin the new year with a new haircut .... commencing tomorrow. Yours Truly is already dreaming about the Fall 2010 collections .... because it's never too early to plan your wardrobe.

6. The unveiling of the Mac Tablet ... we're curious to see how Apple's latest confection will be received by the market and how it'll affect our industry in particular. And dare we hope for a new and improved iPhone too? (I am hoping they'll launch one in pink .... )

5. Trips and adventures, large and small. Both Erin and I have plenty of plans to travel in the coming year ... our calendars kick off with my flight to Denver in 2 weeks, for a mixture of work and play and (maybe) embarrassing attempts at winter sports. (If I don't come home in traction, the trip will be considered a success.) And this is just one of many trips on our agendas .... as our plans will take us everywhere from the East Coast to the tropics to (maybe) Paris for Christmas.

4. In terms of pop culture, we've got high hopes for 2010. I'm dying for the 7th Harry Potter movie and the release of the new Fleet Foxes album. Erin can't wait to devour a new paperback collection of short stories by Minnesota native Louise Erdrich. We're both drooling to see Johnny Depp in Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland, out this March. And it goes without saying, but ..... Mad Men Season 4 can't air soon enough! We need more Don Draper in our lives.

3. Summer. End of story.

2. In September, Proud Mama Erin will send her littlest one off to kindergarten .... she's on her way to an empty nest! And in less momentous but equally thrilling (for me) news, I'm excited to crack out The Dress for a decadent dinner at La Belle Vie .... the result of a Scrabble wager decided most deliciously in my favor.

1. And .... drumroll please .... we're super excited (already) for the 2010 Crazy Savvy Postcard Contest. We had so much fun with last year's that we decided to make it an annual C/S tradition. So, ladies and gents, get scribbling!

Yeah, all in all, I'd say we have a pretty exciting year in store .... assuming we can survive the hell that is January in Minnesota.
