Unless you live under a rock, you’ve heard about the solar eclipse happening today. Not only is there a solar eclipse today but mercury is in retrograde AND it’s my 33rd birthday! The planets are NOT playing around today. I found an affirmation for Leos for the solar eclipse today that I’m in LOVE with. … Continue reading
It’s a new year, time for fresh starts and new beginnings! Everyone is energized after the holidays and time off work, ready to start over. This year, I’m making goals that I fully intend to reach. Although they aren’t huge resolutions, I know that each of these small things put together will lead to a happy … Continue reading
Oh Sonoma, how I love thee, let me count the ways. If I made about quadruple the amount of money that I make, I would be living on five acres of land in Sonoma right this minute with a farm of dobermans running around me while I’m sipping on bottles of Gloria Ferrer. But back … Continue reading
I was a New Orleans virgin…until now. We made the long road trip down to New Orleans for a week (never, I repeat NEVER go to New Orleans for a week, your body will hate you) to celebrate Jazz Fest with an amazing group of friends. Day one through four were great, I started to … Continue reading

I came across a quote on Pinterest today that stuck with me. “I do not want to be liked. I want to be myself.” Why is “being liked” so important to people? Yes, we all want to be accepted, but how far do you go to be likeable until you stop being yourself? The more … Continue reading
I’m taking a lifeline today from my Think Kit prompts to talk about Whole 30, probably because I’m going delirious and can’t concentrate on anything other than dreaming about sugar and booze. I feel like Carrie Mathison when she goes off her meds (you know what I’m talking about, Homeland fans). I kid, I kid. … Continue reading
What do you do to remedy that empty feeling in your heart that is brought on by a death? My heart broke into a million pieces when I logged onto Facebook that morning. Two posts on his wall about how they were sad you were gone. I messaged a few people despite it being 6 … Continue reading
Alright people, it’s time we put our positive pants on! I am grateful to have lived a very privileged life thus far. I’ve never really had to worry about money, I’ve been fortunate enough to travel and have incredible experiences, I have a roof over my head and food to eat, I have great friends … Continue reading
