We already knew last weekend was gonna be good, as the Sunday crew traded sand for (some) snow in Mammoth. But the singles flock—the 4 singles on the trip holding it down in the bunkroom and cruisin’ in the singles truck—got to enjoy the sweet, sweet victory of the Eagles in the Super Bowl. What…
Say your weekend goes like this: your temporary adult roommate co-works with you all day at your patio table. Y’all hit up a yoga class, then decide to go for a quick dinner after showering. You have a glass or 3 of shower wine, and then a to-go cup and head to Dory Deli. You…
I’ve written a lot about learning or remembering to accept unconditional love, ahem, unconditionally. (Here are a few stories from dailyhap: Smelly Travel Can Open Up a Heart, How I Got Back to Being Me Through Friendship, and A Cab to the Airport) But this past weekend and week was a welcome reminder of just…
The chain of events leading me to going to Breckenridge RIGHT NOW is a convoluted one at best.

Nali, Mom, and I are road trippin’ right now (presumably). We’re making the 20-hour+ trek so that I can bring my nervous lil pup back to Texas for two weeks! (follow along on insta stories for the hilarity…) Leaving behind my home even for a couple weeks, here are the things I’ll most miss: Sundays!…
A couple weeks ago, an Eagles-fan friend of mine and I booked a last-minute trip to Seattle for the Eagles-Seahawks game and to see my only-ever adult roommate (excepting my brother). We left Friday after work and booked the insane return flight time of 6am Monday morning, in time to work. As you can see…
What a range of emotions … My absolutely wonderful family Nali in the hospital Getting sick myself from the stress of Nali in the hospital Somehow this making me want to clean out my closet And spend too much money on new pillows And cook For Nali, of course Anticipation of a weekend in Seattle…
