Mondays are for Mad Men

Who likes Mondays? Not many do. And today was a Monday to battle all Mondays with getting stuck in a downpour on my bike ride to work, getting lost and crashing on my way home. Mmm, yes, enough about that.

There is something that I do like about Mondays though, and that is getting to relax and watch my favorite show. I know all you Americans get to see Mad Men on Sunday, but us expats have to wait until one of you uploads it to MegaVideo, which usually takes about 24 hours. So after a day of work once again, I unwind with my favorite whiskey drinking, cigarette smoking, well-dressed crew.

Back when I was living in NYC, receiving my New York mag in the mail and watching Gossip Girl saved every dreaded Monday and now I am starting to get my own Monday ritual down here in Berlin. Do you have a certain way you start off your week, hopefully not involving bike crashes?

Oh and aren't these behind-the-scenes photos I found on the Debonaire amazing? Peggy looks so cute, as of course so do the others.
