Hey rockstars, I’ve been writing a lot this week. Maybe it’s because it’s almost fall and I’m feeling particularly inspired. Today, I spent almost an hour sitting in my friend Kaitlin’s office talking about books. Kaitlin and I both work at the same firm, and I don’t think anyone has ever accused either of us…
I Contain Multitudes. Some of Them Are Foolish.
Hey rockstars, I was tempted to write this blog because there is nothing more “being human” than having a day where you just keep doing ridiculous little things. There are days when I am deeply impressed by my own competence: I can manage complicated projects, keep track of approximately fourteen things at once, remember obscure…
The Infrastructure of a Life
Hey rockstars, Whenever I’m in a mood then there are two Netflix movies/specials that I immediately think about: (1) Brené Brown: The Call to Courage; and (2) Dear Zindagi. Both of these are about life and reflection. The biggest thing from Brene Brown is the “story I tell myself.” And damn, as an anxious girlie,…
Sometimes I’m Moonlight and Sometimes I’m Moondust
Hey Rockstars, To continue the celestial theme, lately I have been thinking about moonlight. Apparently, my personality now consists of finding a celestial fact, becoming emotionally overwhelmed by it, and writing a thousand words about why it is secretly a metaphor for being alive. So, here we are again. Moonlight is not technically light created…
Frames of a Monsoon

Old Light and Long Orbits
Hey Rockstars, So you all know I’m big on celestial events – eclipses, moons, stars, planets, etc. And you know I’m doing my physics mini series (though I think I should make it astronomy themed…) So there are a few quotes that I can’t stop thinking about, so here goes. First, if someone were far…
On Sincerity
Hey rockstars! I’ve been wanting to blog for a while but I have been so #burntout at work that I couldn’t bring myself to, even though the sticky note of blog ideas is increasing rapidly. But today I felt compelled to write because I’ve been thinking a lot lately about sincerity. Not in a grand…
To the Stars: Traveling at the Speed of Light
Hey rockstars! A few days ago I was thinking about how we learned about the solar system in elementary school and how we studied all about the planets. I always had a soft spot for Neptune. The other day I was watching Girl Meets World and Riley had just found out (after years of being…
