Biking to work A very low-key 4th of July, but still getting to connect with old friends AND watch fireworks off my parents’ porch Deep Eddy Cabaret & Hen House aka the inevitable high school reunion that is being back in Austin and out at night Four Seasons girls happy hour Nerf gun wars Anticipation…

85% | Feel Good Friday 051719
I’m back to 85%, which feels pretty freakin’ good after almost two weeks of not feeling healthy—sheesh! Montezuma may not be totally gone, but he’s dormant at the moment (how long does it take for a parasite named after an Aztec emperor to pass through the system?) Looking forward to a weekend of relaxing with…
thank u, next | Feel Good Friday 031519
thank u, next This Ariana Grande song really resonates with me: it catalogues where gratitude becomes peace, no matter what the past looked like. Today is my last day at Alorica, and it’s incredibly bittersweet. What an opportunity for learning and growth in just three short—and long!—years, across multiple departments and locations. The notes from…
Typical | Feel Good Friday 030819
Typical: A ridiculously awesome OC weekend kicks off with birthday happy hour at the Cannery, bleeds into Cassidy’s and a late night, Saturday brings the bridal shower I flew in for (amazing), a lil day drinkin’ at Pacific City, a lil night partyin’ in Newport, and Sunday beach flag football and then volleyball all afternoon,…
Taking Care of Yourself | Feel Good Friday 111618
I’m on a plane to New Orleans, that I was supposed to be on yesterday. But I had hopped on a plane Monday for two meetings in 48 hours in OC, and when I got back to Austin just couldn’t get everything done in time to take off again. Though I agonized over the change…
Bike Commuting | Feel Good Friday 110218
Or, the random thing I labeled this FGF long before I sat down to write it. And to be fair, I love bike commuting. To happy hour, to volleyball, to the gym, to anywhere, it makes me so happy to be outside and NOT in a car! I am so grateful for Shoal Creek trail…
It’s Almost Like Home | Feel Good Friday 102618
Well, I made some new friends and biked around once the weather cleared up and had some awesome dinners with awesome people and it’s beginning to almost feel like I live here in Austin. Which is good because technically I moved here 5 months ago next week (although I long joked that I was moving…
YARD WORK! | Feel Good Friday 101918
Despite the deluge of rain the past few days weeks month, I managed to squeeze in some much-needed yard work last weekend. I asked my dad to help me—I wanted to tear out some bushes for an herb garden and move some stones around, he decided we should trim all the tree limbs and brought…
Are You Fo’ Real? | Feel Good Friday 100518
Even as a Pumpkin Spice Latte lovah let me agree with literally everyone when I lament how on earth is it already October?! However, I could not be more grateful this week that my house finally feels like it is for real (yeah yeah it hasn’t even been a month Ihavehighexpectationsweknowthis). A bunch of house stuff came…
Surrounded by Love! | Feel Good Friday 092818
The magic of the mountains is hard to describe, it feels like words can’t do justice. I did not understand it until I lived there, and even then, I don’t know that I fully understood it until I left, and yearned for home. Couple that sense of physical place and grounding with the love I…
