Today marks 6 years since Rocky left us 💔

Welp, 3 out of 4, I guess.

Old enough to understand

It’s almost impossible to eat anywhere in LA without a reservation (something I def won’t miss about living here, but I will miss all the good food), so I made a res at Wildcrust Pizzeria, partly so I could try it before I blow this popsicle stand, but mostly bc the chef/owner is fine as fuck 😜

Sometimes you do what you gotta do to survive in these streets ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

When I say I want a little blue box, this is what I mean, babe 💁🏻‍♀️

Because I’m still in love with you
On this harvest moon

Full supermoon tonight. I already packed my crystals, so hopefully my chakras will reset on their own ✨

On Sundays, we do Puppy Yoga 🐶🧘🏻‍♀️

If a golden retriever puppy falls asleep on me during savasana, I have to take him home – I don’t make the rules ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Alas, a puppy didn’t fall asleep on me today, but one did pee on my mat and chewed a hole in my leggings 😅

My building manager (Michael Douglas LOL) let me post this flyer in the lobby, but a tracker on the QR code tells me only one person has scanned it 😅 I also listed everything on FB Marketplace, and was able to get rid of one item, despite several flaky people inquiring if multiple listings were still available 😵‍💫

Random shit I found while packing up my apartment:

• My Chargers Merriman jersey – It’s the only football jersey I have! I bought it before Merriman famously choked Tila Tequila and before the Chargers left San Diego, but regrettably not before he got that stupid ‘Lights Out’ tattoo on his forearm.
• Relics from Covid – A bag full of masks, gloves, and sanitizer
• Joints from my uncle – He has sciatica and grows his own weed
• Souvies from The Museum of Broken Relationships in Hollywood (that has since closed down) – A box of matches that say, ‘May the bridges I burn light the way,’ tissues for crying, and a mini notebook titled ‘Regrets’ 😆
• Flipbooks from Jessie and Abe’s wedding 10 years ago
• Magazines from when Prince and Paul Walker died (2016 and 2013, respectively)
• A gift card that my boss gave me for Two Guns Espresso – It’s since closed down bc they’re building a luxury senior village in that plaza LOL. There’s another location, but IDK if the gift card is good there.

Pammie had to come up for a work event in OC yesterday, so she came over afterwards to help me pack. I had only packed two boxes in the past two weeks, and she filled 10 bags full of trash from my linen closet and kitchen alone 😅

I took her out to lunch @ her favorite KBBQ spot from when she lived in OC – Shik Do Rak. We wanted something sweet afterwards, so she looked for a boba place nearby that had gluten/dairy-free options. She found Airoma Cafe, and was like, ‘How about this place? ‘Eye-roma Cafe.’ I was like, ‘OK… but I think it’s pronounced ‘air-oma’ like ‘aroma’. This was like the time we were at a Ess-a-bagel in NYC, and she was like, ‘Order me the egg stacy sandwich.’ I was like, ‘Egg stacy? Oh, eggstacy. Like ecstasy.’ I love a good pun or double entendre, so I usually pick up what they’re putting down, but Pammie always misses the mark 😆 This other time, she went to a Lord Huron show with me and was trying to tag the band in her IG story and was like, ‘How come they’re not coming up?’ I look at her phone and was like, ‘Well, their name’s ‘Lord Huron’ not ‘Lady Huron’ 🤣 I don’t usually like to correct people (even when I know I’m right) bc I don’t wanna make them feel dumb, but she’s probably the smartest person I know, and it’s just so funny when she gets something wrong 😆

I’ve never felt more seen/personally attacked in my life 😅

I did this while watching a movie with a boy on a train once. I hate that guy now and use wireless Beats By Dre headphones so no one talks to me when I’m wearing them.

Follow me for more tips on being unapproachable 😆

Welp, I instacart my groceries and always choose ‘contactless delivery’ so… ✌🏼

I always take an Uber if I know I’m gonna be drinking, going to/from the airport (I would never ask someone to deal with the hell that is LAX – besides I literally live 10 minutes away), or just don’t want to deal with LA traffic when going to a show. I always put on my sunglasses (only if it’s daytime – I’m not a total asshole) bc I hate small talk and would prefer that the driver not talk to me 😅 Uber has a ‘quiet mode’ feature that lets the driver know you don’t want to chat, but I feel like an asshole requesting a quiet ride – I like for them to make the choice for themselves not to speak to me 😆 Anyway, all that to say I won’t be meeting my husband in a rideshare or grocery store anytime soon…

Things I bought today to make myself feel better 🖤

Seeing a lot of Padres posts tonight set to Radiohead 😢

The Pads have been breaking my heart all year…

Welp.

Eating my feelings (@ Shake Shack El Segundo)

Their new French Onion Soup collabo ‘slaps’, as the kids say.

The devil in your eyes
Won’t deny the lies you’ve sold
I’m holding on too tight
While you let go
This is casual

When you lay awake at night
Do I ever cross your mind?
‘Cause you still cross mine

If anyone could’ve saved me
It would’ve been you

How come we never even dated
But I still find myself thinking of you daily?

You’re on another path
While I’m stuck in the past
You’re on another path
What’s good can’t ever last

Love, love, love Sombr (it’s a stylized version of ‘somber’ – all his music is sad, although autocorrect always tries to change it to ‘sombrero’ LOL). He’s probably my favorite new artist discovery this year. He has four upcoming shows in LA, but they’re all after I move back to SD. Also, this kid isn’t even old enough to drink yet, but he sings of heartbreak like he’s been through some shit. Who hurt you??? Virginia from would’ve been you? Caroline from caroline? Do they know you’re 6’7? 😆

6’2 is my sweet spot, but the taller a guy is, the more concessions I will make 😅

On today’s edition of ‘Things I’ve done instead of packing’:

– Watched the Padres shutout the Cubs

– Googled the MLB postseason schedule after the Pads win today to see when the games are tentatively gonna be if they make it to the World Series – my new apartment is 5 blocks away from the ballpark, so I’ll have to go, right? 😜

– Signed up for Puppy Yoga in West Hollywood this weekend – It’s Golden Retriever puppies 😭

– Applied to adopt this dog from California Doodle Rescue bc I don’t have enough going on in my life 😅 I have applied for a handful of dogs at rescues throughout LA, but I never get picked bc there are so many applicants up here.

– Designed a flyer to put up in the lobby of my building so I can possibly sell some of this furniture to my neighbors. A guy came by today who was interested in switching units within the building and told me he liked how I decorated the place. When people ask me what my interior design style is (absolutely no one has ever asked me this), I say it’s Mid-Century Modern Moo Deng 😆

Not saying the Padres won today bc I wore my Padres shirt, but they beat the Dodgers the last time I wore this shirt ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Umm, you’re welcome?

I prefer showers over baths, but my new apartment has a soaking tub, so I might have to get this bath bomb 🔪
