Long but clear articulation of why the term girlboss has always bothered me as a leader. Entertainment Obsessed with Fast & Furious currently. Dove deep this weekend on how to watch the Fast and Furious movies in order—did you know they are not actually numbered in chronological order?! wtf!—and am now currently seeking a binge…

I Will Not Forget I Will Not Forget I Will Not Forget | Feel Good Friday 062521
Celebrating my dad, the best dad, at Treaty Oak was a perfect Sunday! Sushi happy hour… Getting to know friends better. Letting people love me for who I am. For my dichotomies. As my champions. Embracing too much rejection. Playing Level 3 volleyball. Vanushing. Biking. Nali has sarcoma. It’s old lady cancer and there’s nothing…
Articles of Clothing | Feel Good Friday 061121
So last night, stone cold sober, I shredded some cheese for my steak nachos and I remember thinking it wasn’t as much cheese as I thought it would be, but I cooked them, turned off the kitchen light, ate my nachos and watched my shows… This morning I walk into the kitchen following a TRAIL…
Backyard Gratitude List | Feel Good Friday 052121
It’s a rainy, lovely Saturday morning. I have things to do, but I have the luxury of moving slowly, unhurried. It’s great. Grateful for: Hammock. I love a hammock. Anywhere. But in my backyard?! Heaven. Also Heaven? My parents’ porch. I love that place. I especially love it with my extended family, the Teti fam…
FAVORITE THINGS | Feel Good Friday 032621
My new go-to question for men on dating apps is “what’s you favorite thing about this week?” … I can’t say it’s more or less successful than any other opener, but to me it’s a pretty easy question because you can describe something that has already happened OR something that is going to happen ……
Good Failing | Feel Good Friday 031921
Maybe seven years ago, I wrote a blog post about failing for a crossfit gym. Here is the cliffs notes version: one of the best things I think powerlifting teaches is how to fail: How to safely fail – bailing out of a squat or lift How to rally from a fail – just because…
Champions | Feel Good Friday 031221
Y’all. First off, friends that are your champions are the best. This week, in no particular order: Bromance. Part of his championing is definitely not reading this blog so he will never know the nice things I’m about to say but I am just so unbelievably grateful that no matter what, there is a person…
Perfect | Feel Good Friday 030521
The west Texas elopment was perfect. Every breakfast at Aster Marfa was perfect. Meeting Rice alum Roberto leading us to Garza Marfa for his Mimi y Roberto pottery was perfect. The family Sunday celebration brunch-into-hangout was also perfect. Sunday night cheese-and-wine catchup was perfect. My workouts this week were perfect. I hit 4 lifting days,…
4th Annual Framily Appreciation Post | 021221
But, like, how could I not? They are, without exaggeration, the absolute fucking best. The best! The easiest, the loving-est, the funniest. The most fun to ski with, the easiest to travel with, the cheapest to eat with (HOW WAS MY FOOD FOR THE ENTIRE WEEKEND $27?!), the homiest to hang out with, the smartest…
Stormy Beach | Feel Good Friday 112720
I love a stormy beach—the rain, thunder, and weather with crashing waves is just as gorgeous as a 70-and-sunny blue-sky day, in its own way. Particularly in contrast. Fitting, then, that as I reflect on the past week as I compose this gratitude list, we’re sitting at a stormy beach in Texas. First, it should…
