An awesome, wide-ranging, organic and intense and happy week. Grateful for: The Refresh Solo camping on Padre Island National Seashore? Miracles. The quote “the waves of the sea help me get back to me” has never run more true. Also I made my own damn fire in the midst of insane wind, drank jetboil coffee,…
Love … I talk a lot about love on this blog—things I love, people I love, family and friends and places I love, my pup I love more than anything. But love is different than relationships. Today is about celebrating love, and I believe wholeheartedly in that. I hope I tell the people I love…

The mountain air, the gurgling river, sleeping under the stars… reset my soul and life and mind. Hanging with my bromance, my coven, and my new phx bestie filled my heart with happiness and peace. Working on the library deck, drinking gas station coffee, and eating Bangkok Happy Bowl brought maximum contentment to a remote…
Y’know how most of August has been pretty chill, and I’ve been staying in Austin and sort of catching up to myself? I’m about to get away from myself again, with all sorts of trips and travels and events coming up! And I turn 35. 35 is my basketball number, and probably gonna be an…
I did some stuff. Look at these house projects! First, I hung my stick on the wall like art. My brother came in and was like “Nice driftwood art!” I said, “That’s trash from your trash tree that fell on my house!” Which it is. But it’s also badass and looks badass on the wall,…
Can you imagine being friends, by choice, with someone for twenty seven years?! It seems like forever, but that’s how long my childhood bestie and I have been friends, and this past weekend with her in town was the closest I’ve felt to her in years. I am SO lucky to have her in my…
