102. The Week in Me
Another quick one this week. Details are succinct. I went to a rage room with
and then gorged on pastitsio at Souvlaki GR for the second time in a month. My ex removed me from our shared Amazon Prime household without warning. I watched one of the worst films I have ever seen (Spin Me Round, a film that does not even shrug towards an explanation of its title, and the only thing I have to exalt is the Land-O-Lakes manicure Aubrey Plaza wears for half of the movie until she just…goes away, never to be referenced or shown again).

“Deaf Football Team Was Underestimated and Mocked — Until They Started 'Beating the Pants Off' Opponents” This is nice!!!
To listen:

Actually my babies:
Various and sundry:
Open role! If this job looks right for you (in NYC) reach out to me and I’ll introduce you to your prospective future colleague, Rebecca!
Tri-state hoes! If you’ve been curious about doing a boudouir shoot, I heartily recommend Melissa. I’ve shot with Melissa before: she shot the cover of my EP, and I felt very comfortable and confident cramming both titties into that lil cowboy hat in front of her:
You can learn more about her work here!
This is exactly why I got up at 3am last Saturday and spent four hours looking at Ticketmaster to not even WIND UP WITH TICKETS but yeah…this is PART OF THE EXPERIENCE:
Me and who (I am the bee):
My grandmother would have made me one in every color:

I hope this is you this week: enjoying a long bath, just kinda floating along with it all, and not giving a damn that your elbows are a little ashy:
Love you bitches,

I was so honored to Rage with you. I’ve been in a little mini anger-phase recently and I would love to join you again. Pastichio included. Also, Lugosi is LARGE!!!!!!!!!
