Is this a cop-out for a Feel Good Friday? I have so much to be grateful for but after breaking from tradition last week and ranting earlier this week, I can’t quite get back to the ebullience of the previous gratitude lists. See you next week.
I find it hard to write about tragic events like the shooting in Las Vegas at the Route 91 Harvest Festival. I could have been there—literally, I got invited for a spontaneous trip Friday night, only to be uninvited Saturday—and many of my friends were. Friends’ friends were shot, and some are still in the…
Y’ALL I KNOW I AM ANNOYING ABOUT THE THINGS I LOVE (ROSÉ, PATIOS, MY PATIO SPECIFICALLY, NALI, MY FRIENDS, BLAH BLAH) BUT I REALLY FREAKIN’ LOVE MY PATIO! Sunday: setup tv on beach to watch texans vs patriots. play vb. watch football. play vb. swim. PERFECT. Sunday afternoon: friends come over. babies. grillin’. rosé. PERFECT.…
What DO I want to do? (launch a company? run a company? live in a cabin in the wilderness? these are the kinds of things that come up when you’re at a b-school offsite and everyone wants to know what you do and what you do on the side and why you’re in b-school to…
Beach flag football season kicked off last weekend, and I’m super happy to be back on the sand. Both of my teams have a ways to go, but we’re gonna be good. NFL football season also kicked off, which makes lazy Sundays (post-vb, naturally) even better than before. I’m in DC this week for EMBA…
I’m grateful I’m me! I’m me thanks to my awesome parents, who were out last weekend to celebrate their anniversary. And these friends helped me celebrate them and are now helping me celebrate me with a thrifty thirty three thrift shop pub crawl. More to come on that. 33 is gonna be a good year.…
Lake Tahoe!! When I was the minister for my best couple friends’ wedding last summer, we all laughed about how perfect it is that I’m permanently on their marriage certificate: we’re the marriage certificate trio! Never was that more apparent than the five-day Tahoe trip we took last weekend. There’s so much to be grateful…
How am I not myself? h/t Dark & Stormy/BT for showing me I Heart Huckabees (which, truth be told, I kind of hated); yes, I’ve used this line before here. … Someone asked me what my priorities were the other day, and I was surprised to find out that I was a little stumped. Thoughts:…
What I’m watching: (it’s a nice contrast) Insecure Ballers Suits What I’m boozing: (no surprises here) A surprisingly awesome Chilean pinot noir Rosé of cab is still my fave – Lot 557 Modern Times Fruitlands sour beer What I’m wearing: (aka wanting to buy more of) L*space reversible haley top for volleyball Kork-Ease platform sandals,…
A week of perspective! Last weekend’s failed camping excursion could have been a bust but turned into an absolutely awesome girls night and all-Sunday-long fun. What felt like a missed opportunity at work turned into a different kind of opportunity (to work from home and annoy the crap out of all my instagram followers with…
