My achilles. I’ve been staving off this particular injury since Dr. Bill wouldn’t let me play turf football five years ago in Newport, but when I met my awesome group of pickup football guys here, I just couldn’t help myself. I did massage, chiropractic, wrapping, acupuncture, icing, and all the things to prevent an achilles…

And dailyhap and lyssart and lyssamyskaallen.com except not bc we’re still in WSOD purgatory and writing this FGF gratitude list on my phone.GAME ON with capture the flag except…
Y’all. It has been a minute. This here blog has been up for close to 14 years, since 12/27/07. It has never been down for more than hour, and yet we have just gone through over two weeks of an outage that I couldn’t prioritize finding the time to fix. And we were just starting…
Before we dig in, my very first in-person art show starts tomorrow!! Click here for some of the work, and more details on the studio tour/art crawl. Not even apologizing anymore for my erratic gratitude post schedule. I am so grateful for who I am. For who I’ve chosen to have in my life. For…

That is, I would be grateful for it if I had it. This week has been insane, incredible, intense. Emotional to say the least. And as I turned to my yoga—where I completely lost my shit on the mat one day which I suppose is as good a place as any to lose your mind…
Grateful for this FULL, crazy life. Grateful for friends and family and therapy and Nali running around and a new striped sweater and my crazy employee whatsapping me while I’m at a music festival and Mostly grateful for GEORGE STRAIT. But also cowboy pool and Xian Noodles happy hour and Frankly strawberry lemonade vodka and…
This was my third trip to Chicago, but the first where I felt like I really got to wander and get the vibe of the city so many people love. And I get it, Chi-lovers: the city is sporty, authentic, energetic without being frenetic, outdoorsy, inventive, and just nice. We stayed in the Gold Coast…
I HAVE A NEPHEW’S BIRTHDAY TO CELEBRATE! Spent the weekend in Chicago celebrating a special guy’s birthday with a couple of friends who made my own very special. My 37th birthday felt like it went on for two weeks—celebrated by and with so many friends new and old. Feeling good about my 38 list. Grateful…
