I went malling the other day to get a wedding gift over at Pottery Barn. While trying to corral the little guy and prevent him from breaking an expensive lamp, I was suddenly confronted by a case of life imitating art:
Yep, there were little bags of beach glass for sale at the Pottery Barn. For those who didn't have the time to actually go to a beach and collect some themselves.

Sometimes I think the whole world needs a vacation...

Update, 9:42 PM: I certainly know that this guy does. Matt McBride has done some truly heroic blogging. He deserves a good break from it all.
