It’s a wet and gloomy day. My hair is frizzy, my tea is ginger and peach flavored. I used lipstick on my lips and cheeks today and nothing else. The shoes I’m wearing are not made for the rain. This morning I was reading East of Eden. Frazzled is how I would describe myself right now. I feel like your favorite English professor who’s always running late. Highly recommend.

Normally, I’m a big album person, but lately my roommate got me into listening to my liked songs. It’s amazing. You get the best of all worlds, Nirvana into Clairo into Caroline Polachek into Talking Heads into Andre3000… How spectacular that we have all of the music in the world just at our constant disposal.

Almost Famous, Boogie Nights, Licorice Pizza, The Holdovers, Dazed and Confused, etc. This is my favorite genre of movie. I will eat this up every single time. Masterpieces. All of them.
