The purpose of existence is to exist. It is too fantastic to have a meaning. From Sadhguru. Today, that’s what I’m grateful for. A fantastic existence. (If you must know: also grateful for mom’s visit, GoT, nali, failed vb, bike stop-bys, yolo, dancing, a hot vacation renter, gas firepit, rosé, dog sitting, crash and dash,…

“We have to take a selfie!” | Feel Good Friday 071417
… says Mama last night, at a Paso Robles wine tasting she managed to find and fly in for—which was, of course, fabulous. Great venue, really, really good wines, lots of fun with the mama. The selfie was silly (thanks for the free sunnies!) but it encapsulates something I am so grateful for: curiosity. My…
Everything is Better, Fewer These Days: The New Affiliate Links
Hi faux celebs. I did a lil inventory (it’s all about better, fewer these days!) and have culled down the sites/products/etc I link to and endorse on the Get the Goods page, on the sidebar, and in this post to the ones that I really believe in and buy from regularly, but that also give…
LUCKY | Feel Good Friday 070717
My heart is so full! My friends are so awesome! Groups of friends are the best! I am so lucky I’ve been able to gather friends and mix crews and have one of the greatest weekends ever. Best summer ever! What else can be said that hasn’t been said about how freakin’ lucky and grateful…
Welcome Back, Self
Looking back, the end of 2016 and start of 2017 were a bit rough for me. There wasn’t one thing to pinpoint this malaise to, but more a general sense of unrest and un-wellness. Nothing was wrong, but nothing was quite right either. Of course, I had fun and stayed positive and grateful and made…
New Fraaaaaands & Froyolo | Feel Good Friday 063017
A whole bunch of chance encounters led to new friends last weekend. And then, Sunday sorority house happened (I never lived in a sorority house) where the girls returned to my house for items they’d left Saturday and we laid around catching up on what happened last night, stalking our new friends on social media,…
PATIO | Feel Good Friday 062317 (+ more Rosé, naturally)
It’s summer, and there is nothing I love more right now that hanging out on my patio (rosé in hand, probably). Last weekend, the patio hosted a super-fun graduation party on Saturday. We played Sunday volleyball. Then, post-vb we ordered Thai food and spent the next several hours just lounging around. It was perfect. The…
The River | Feel Good Friday 061617
There’s a distinctly steamy, balmy, summery quality to summer nights at the lake. As far as I can tell, it doesn’t matter what lake or river, if you’ve got a dock and some water, there will be cicadas chirping quietly, water lapping softly, laughter punctuating the peace in welcome staccatos. Perhaps there’s a breeze that…
Research List: In Search of Better, Fewer
A few years ago I implemented a strict one-in, one-out policy for clothes-buying. It was successful, but I constantly wish I would pare down more: I have a few pieces I love, love, love, and I wear them ALL THE TIME. Why bother keeping the rest? Because I might, maybe, possibly want to wear them…
Activities | Feel Good Friday 060917
VB, FB, bike rides, yoga, Chalk, catch-ups, boy bonding with Nali pup—it was a great week of activities. Now I’m headed to the river! The river! Grateful for fun already had and fun anticipated … Also. I was feeling insecure about any number things—because I’m a girl, mostly—last night, so much so that I literally…
