Greetings my kindhearted and sweet friends, I guess the motivation to blog has just been hitting recently – I think I’ve just been a little bit happier, who knows. But I’ve mostly been focusing on the small joys (shameless plug to my last post!) Today was one of those Saturdays that feel like Sundays, in…

Celebrate the Small Joys
Greetings my sweet friends, Those of you who read my last post know that lately I’ve been struggling emotionally for the past two weeks. This past weekend I got breakfast with one of my old friends, and it’s always so nice seeing her. We met through work, but the first time we got lunch outside…
Be Disarming, Be Brave, Be Vulnerable
Happy 2024 my sweet friends! It’s been such a long time since I blogged. I had done it consistently for a while and then realized that I was usually only blogging about positive and happy things and there was an entire side to me that I wasn’t blogging about. I wouldn’t blog about the stressful…
Flights and Daydreaming
Cue “open your eyes (to love)” by LMNT Hello angels, Today I’m flying back from Seattle back to DC and you all know how much I love flying and airports. But today especially, I am flying in #PremiumEconomy on Alaska Airlines (highly recommend – extra legroom and free wine/beer/cocktails on flights over 350 miles. (This…
28 on 28th
So I went into 2023 thinking it’ll be the best year, but I gotta say, so far it’s kinda kicking my ass. Right before new year’s started, I did a tarot reading with my bestie and personal tarot card reader, Divya. And I asked what 2023 will be like in a nutshell. I was excited…
Valentine’s Day Twenty Twenty Three
Cheers babe!! It’s Valentine’s day again 🙂 So the first obligatory thing I’m going to point out is my previous Valentine’s posts: see 2016, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022. So as you all know, I’m very big on self-care on Valentine’s day. You all are free to read the old posts to understand my complicated feelings about this holiday,…
To Do Item for Week 2: Check in on loved ones
Hello hello rockstars, It is 8:46 p.m. right now, and I’m pretty much going to post as soon as I finish writing. Maybe if I actually posted at a consistent time then people would follow me and pay attention to the things I say… Alas, what is this blog besides a glorified journal, anyway? The…
2023 is the year I get my pilot, motorcycle, and racing license
Hello babes! Right now I’m sitting in the comfiest sweat pants (shoutout to Calvin Klein. Without fail, every Black Friday, I end up buying CK sweats. They’re just so comfy?!) and drinking a midnight coffee. I actually am taking a break from work (yes, I know it’s Saturday) to write this blog post. A few…
Hogwarts will always be there to welcome you home
Hello rockstars, This blog post should have been called “The World of Harry Potter: Child’s Dream or Oppressive Police State” because it’s the original title of the blog post I was going to write with my dear friend Shane. I got the news earlier this week that Shane is no longer with us. I wanted…
A passing side character in someone else’s life
Hello everyone 🙂 This is also not a travel blog post, sorrrry. But those of you that read my most recent post, learned that I just started volunteering at the Strathmore Music Center. I’d been going to the Strathmore for years as a kid – for festivals, for outdoor movies, and for music performances. In…
