I deliberately left two awesome online ladies off my list because I wanted to post this for GPOYW. They are Verena von Pfetten and Glynnis MacNicol - two of my favorite Canadian compadres. Verena is smart and hilarious and sitting across from her is one of the few things I miss about HuffPo (I’d say the fridge full of Diet Coke, but Dan keeps us well looked after); and Glynnie is - my Glynnie! I don’t even know where to start but she is the best. Full stop. (If you need me to enumerate why, you obviously aren’t reading enough FishbowlNY. Go now.) Also I don’t know how we both grew up in Canada with the same exposure to U.S. politics and yet she knows everything about everything and I make jokes about sexy presidential names (oh come on. WOODrow Wilson? James POLK? Millard FILLMORE?). Anyway. GPOYW. Also stands for “Girl Power Oh Yeah!” Wednesday. Woooo!
See, this is why I love Rachel. (Also, that hair is why I did this.)
