What if I stopped compulsively cleaning, checking social media, responding to text messages, prioritizing the needs of others, worrying about the dogs, eating because I'm bored, or making excuses for why I can't do the things that bring me joy? What if I stopped punishing myself with exercise after eating, eating too fast because I'm... Continue Reading →
Come for the words. Stay for the feelings.
WE NEED EACH OTHER. AND THAT’S OKAY.
Happy Sunday morning to all of my readers on PST, and happy day or night to the rest of you beautiful people. How is everyone doing? This is not rhetorical. I really want to know. Drop something in the comments. Text me. DM me. Email me. Send me a postcard by messenger pigeon. Connect with... Continue Reading →
DAY 3 & DAY 4
I’m writing this in the last hour of our 6.5 hour flight home. The flight is usually around 5 hours, but some inclement weather in the Midwest meant we had to take a detour. I’m tired. I’m hungry. And I’m ready to sleep in my own bed, honey. Okay, so day 3 was supposed to... Continue Reading →
DAY 2. FEET DONT FAIL ME NOW.
I don’t have an Apple Watch or fitness tracker, but I’d bet we got some serious mileage in on day two. By midday, my dogs were barrrrrkin. We’ll get to that in a minute. While planning this trip a while back, Ralph casually mentioned wanting to do a helicopter ride, and I pretended not to... Continue Reading →
WE’VE ARRIVED
We took the flyaway shuttle from union station to LAX and Ralph’s nuts went flying. Not those nuts, cochinos! He had a bag of almonds and cashews that didn’t pass the speed bump test and it sounded like someone poured out a bag of marbles. Your girl was chuckling her little head off, and I’d...

BIG. APPLE. HERE. WE. COME.
Hello, readers! I've missed you, and I hope you've missed me. As an apology for not releasing a podcast this week, I'm possibly travel blogging about my trip to NY. I don't want to make any promises I can't keep, but I do know that I love keeping a travel journal and maybe I can... Continue Reading →
My. Winter. Insomnia.
I don’t know if it’s the weather, but I find that I’m sleepy all day and then can’t stay asleep at night. I go to bed at 9pm, wake up anywhere between two and three in the morning, and then can’t go back to sleep. I end up on my phone playing the latest Wordle... Continue Reading →
It’s. Ok. To. Not. Be. Ok.
Lately I’ve been feeling inspired to try out different recipes. I like cooking my own food because it makes me feel in control of my own nutrition. It’s much easier to just order take out and be done with it, but I like the feeling of accomplishment. I like inviting people over and having them... Continue Reading →
The. Most. Beautiful. Days. Are. In. November.
The sunlight is coming through my bedroom window and the sky is a shade of blue that is foreign to LA, except after a rain shower, and usually in November. This time of year makes me nostalgic for my childhood. It reminds of jumping into puddles at school and getting home drenched. My grandpa was... Continue Reading →
Let’s. Open. Windows.
Hello to all of my blog readers! Another beautiful week is upon us. I had a pretty relaxing weekend, so I’m ready to hit the ground running and I hope you are too. If you haven’t had a chance to check out my podcast, what the heck are you waiting for? It has been such... Continue Reading →
