Per usual as is my brain’s great irony, the title of this post was written BEFORE I forgot to publish it all weekend … it’s a lot to keep up with a weekly gratitude list for almost a decade. But I love it, and it’s important to me, and it’s definitely made my life better…

Truck-less | Feel Good Friday 070221
I’m pretty much always “working on myself” but I love the way my dear/completely badass friend frames the quest in this article: Work on yourself now before it comes back to bite you in the ass. And then! Completely digging my Co-Star reading for yesterday: You are learning how to come to terms with your…
Jinxed It | Feel Good Friday/Sunday 061821
Happy Father’s Day to the greatest dad of all time. Buy his latest book here. All of last weekend was great, from volleyball and yoga to south Austin bars to climbing and swimming at the Greenbelt to Austin Winery and family dinner, plus floating in my cowboy pool and reading in my hammock. It was…

… or How My Body Told Me to Slow TF Down | Feel Good Friday 051421
This is a story of allergies. Just kidding, except it is … despite being a native, every spring in Austin the allergies KICK MY ASS. I take my daily allergy meds, use my sinus rinse, take all the dirty hippie immune boosters, drink echinacea tea … and still! I had to take a whole damn…
Pura Vida | Feel Good Friday 050721
Before you go to Costa Rica, you might be a bit cynical like me, thinking pura vida is a marketing slogan or a thing tourists pick up. But it’s not. Somehow those two words actually, adequately represent the embodiment of a country’s ethos. You can use it for hello, goodbye, ok, thank you, you’re welcome,…
Dammit I Have to Be Feminist Today | Checklist 56
Or, equalist. But either way, what the actual eff is going on with these stories? There are so many women with so many un-funded entrepreneurial ideas (2.8% of VC funding goes to women). AND YET: A pink tampon removal glove got 30,000 euros. These women-in-tech stories are still happening. “Fixing Bias, Not Women”. OMG. Goodbye…
Checklist 54
I’m moving my furniture around—again—so will likely be pinning rugs and chairs as I try to decide how to fill different spaces. Maybe I like change, or maybe it’s just not right yet. Entertainment UM… these two short films are insane but awesome: PIZZA FACE and CHEESE DOG. My coworkers are fantastic. Love this random…
