Rain and My Cluttered Brain
I woke up this morning to subtle rain, not the sort that wakes you in the beautiful way an early morning downpour would. It’s a soft rain, not noticeable until I walk over to the window and pull it open. Rain is running over the round bodies of mangoes hanging low on branches, tapping at blades of grass, glistening on the pavement. The birds twitter … Continue reading Rain and My Cluttered Brain
Women and Beauty: Part One
Women and Beauty: Part One Did you know that I’m a cartographer now? Oh yeah, I’ve been studying and mapping the lines on my face. My laugh lines and future crows feet are worrying me.

A Girl and a Raccoon Meet In the Woods
I planned on going for a long, intense walk and then sitting down to write. The writing came sooner than expected. I was walking along a somewhat beaten path when I looked over and saw a patch of earth covered over in fallen leaves, above it a canopy of trees. My issue was that in order to get to it, I’d have to step through … Continue reading A Girl and a Raccoon Meet In the Woods
Outfit Post: White Corduroys & Tee
It ain’t often that you’ll find me wearing white pants. Most of the white pants I’ve tried on throughout my life have been completely see-through. Is it just me, or is there a shortage of non-see-through white pants out there? Thankfully, these cozy, stretchy Old Navy corduroy pants don’t have that problem. I love a good pair of blue jeans, but I think it’s nice … Continue reading Outfit Post: White Corduroys & Tee
The Universe and Sick Jokes
I need to announce to you all that hours after publishing today’s blog post– Messy Cars Anonymous— I parked under a tree. Yes, my car got shat on by a shit ton of birds. I’m appalled that the Universe would question my integrity and true intentions (to keep my car clean) so suddenly and violently. Without a warning. Okay, real adults would know not to … Continue reading The Universe and Sick Jokes
Messy Cars Anonymous
I recently upgraded from a car that was determined to get itself drowned in a canal to a car that I can safely depend on to get me back home from wherever I’ve been. I didn’t want to shell out the blasted money, but it appeared that I was doing so anyway with one mechanical issue after another. So this new car is, well, newer, … Continue reading Messy Cars Anonymous
Instagram Fashion: March
I love doing these posts at the end of the month because it gives me a chance to go back through all the fashion I’ve saved and realize commonalities I that I didn’t recognize before. February had a strong hippie vibe and this month it seems my crush was on menswear. You all know how much I love my feminine style, so you won’t be … Continue reading Instagram Fashion: March

Real Artists Don’t Starve by Jeff Goins is a book that reimagines the way we view artists, or, I should say, brings us back to an earlier time before the concept of the starving artist was formed. Continue reading Recommended Reading: Real Artists Don’t Starve
