It’s been more than a month (33 days!) since my last cigarette.
1 and 5 are kind of Humbling…
WHAT I’VE BEEN SAYING ALL ALONG
Not more than five minutes after posting my message to the universe, I got an email from OKCupid and a text message from an ex-boyfriend. Universe, you so crazy.
While driving me to the airport last month, my friend Andrew asked, “So, you dating anyone? I’m assuming the answer is yes, since you’re always dating someone.”
The answer, of course, was yes.
Two days ago, my brother and I were discussing the creeping demise of the very same relationship and my dating history in general. My brother, being the jerk/great guy he is, asked, “Do you ever think you’re the problem?”
The answer, of course, was yes. Yes, I am. But only because, as a serial monogamist, I’m looking for love in all the wrong places, looking for love in too many faces. (Kidding—surely I have, like, one more flaw.)
Now, I’m not saying this thing—my current relationship—is over quite yet, because, in the words of Lenny Kravitz, it ain’t over ‘til it’s over, but I’m here to put this out into the universe: I’ll be okay either way. I’ll be okay.
Men—I get older, they stay the same age.
Oof! It’s a bitter morning up in my household. But, hey, I’m allowed to have my moments.
Luckily, it’s summer. Ain’t nothing sad about that.
now that summer has arrived, i spend a lot of time dancing around my apartment. like, a lot.
Accidentally stumbled upon these today. Accidentally bought them.
This Etsy shop, Cha Cha Covers, is AMAZING.
One of the best parts of Mexico was hearing back-to-back Selena blasting from the speakers of a nearby colonia on the first day of a week-long celebration honoring San Pascual.
I don’t want to be too dramatic, but I just had a pretty intense experience. If last summer gave birth to Yvette 2.0, this one is giving rise to Yvette 2.5. I want to talk about all of the things! But I’ll leave you with one of my favorite memories: I went to a full moon ceremony that was something straight out of The Craft (but in Spanish. And super real.) I laughed, I cried, I gave thanks to Father Fire and Mother Earth and submitted my intentions to the four directions. Holy shit, guys. It was amazing.
