200 Day Time Capsule Blog #7
I will admit, I held on to this one for a little longer than usual. But I couldn’t help it. I wanted to wait until today because tomorrow, June 15th, is the day when things are making a big push towards “normal.” Baseball stadiums are opening to full capacity, mask mandates are disappearing, people are… Continue reading

The Drive-Thru Fair
“Here’s a map, have a great time.” My best friend Allison and I pulled into the parking lot at the Rose Bowl and then immediately pulled over to take a look at the 11”x17” paper map we’d just been handed with no follow-up directions. I’d heard about the “Fair Foodie Fest” in passing online, and… Continue reading

17 Goals for 2021 (List-cember #8)
In 2017, I made my first list of 17 goals. They were bold—crazy even—and they were hard, but they also pushed me to do things I never thought I’d do. Since then, I’ve figured out a rhythm to goal setting. I’ve made sure to set goals that I want to accomplish rather than those I… Continue reading

200 Day Time Capsule Blog #6
It should come as a surprise to no one that this time capsule is a little grim, mostly because it’s been 200 days and things are not exactly radically better than they were for our last letter. I started the letter with, “I can only hope things are good, because they are a little rough… Continue reading

This Post Was Brought to You By Amy Grant
The living room is empty. My dad is at work and my mom is in the other room, maybe cleaning or reading or talking on the phone. I am eight years old, and I am in the mood to dance. I sift through the CDs on the shelf, press the power button on the stereo,… Continue reading

My Google Search History (Part 6)
If I’m being honest, I truly thought I was “getting better” at not hoarding internet windows on my phone. I don’t know what gave me this impression—aside from perhaps blind optimism—but when I lost an internet window I was looking at because it got shuffled into the 67 other open windows, it was clear that… Continue reading

If You Have Time to Kill, Take These Personality Tests (Part Two)
One of my favorite ways to kill time—quarantine or not—is to take personality tests. I love unlocking new sections of my mind, gaining a new understanding of my psyche and defending myself against results that seem too dead on to be possible. So, if you are looking to get to know yourself (or your friends… Continue reading

Learning Internet Slang (Part 5)
It’s that time again, my friends. Time to search the corners of the internet for the strangest slang terms in circulation and then see if my friends and family have any idea what they mean. As always (in my opinion) the guesses were better than the actual answers, and we even decided to completely redefine… Continue reading

My Quest to Find a Morning Routine (Part 2)
Just about two months ago I posted a blog explaining my want/need for a better morning routine, namely on weekdays. I have long been a chronic snooze pusher, and am often completing my morning responsibilities at somewhat of a jogging pace, and so I thought it was about time to do something about it. To… Continue reading
