NEW BLOG: Following your dreams seems like such an oxymoron because -- as adults -- we all dream within the parameters of reality. Which defeats the purpose of dreaming. We dream about promotions and sensible vacations and the next home upgrade we will make. If we're all being honest -- we just want a guaranteed source of money that keeps us comfortable, and we want to spend our days doing things that we love. But most of us don't even dream like that. We keep it much more conservative, dreaming only of things we can actually conceive of -- which is so limiting. Practical dream equations are made up of seeing X number of clients and/or selling X number of products for X amount. That's our fucking dream template. It's all very rational and falls within the parameters of what we've been taught is possible. If we were really truly dreaming it would be way bigger than that.

Is it possible for you to even understand what's happening here? Thinly sliced onions and potatoes layered with a sharp cheddar cheesy garlicky sauce topped with a crumble made from bacon fat, truffle potato chips and a baguette. What. The. Fuck. #dinner

I just wrote this trying to sell a friend on coming with me Sunday morning. Maybe you'll get a laugh out of it and want to join me too. @metta_yoga: feel free to use this as the official description: I'm doing a pretty dang righteous yoga combo on Sunday morning. This little fairy of a teacher leads two back to back classes. The first one is a yin/yang so it's like a combo of restorative poses with a few active poses mixed in. The second class is yoga nidra. It's the best ever to be in the final pose of the first class knowing that you don't even have to move for the second class -- yoga nidra is basically a guided meditation. So you're just super chill and starting the yoga nidra so very relaxed and centered after having done the first class. The teacher's name is Jen and she's just one of those tiny cute moms that look perfect like they really have their shit together, but actually she's a real, genuine human showing up for class just like you are. And she opens the first class usually with a monologue about not being perfect and listening to your body, which I know sounds cliche and cheese dicky, but somehow when she does it -- it's not and it's like she's talking directly to you and you just want to crawl into her lap and take a nap. Anyway. I'm doing that on Sunday. The first class is at 10, the second class immediately follows starting at 11:30 if you feel like joining for either/both. #yoga #yogaeverydamnday #Phoenix #mettamoment2017 #mettayoga #health #happiness #sanity #yinyang #yoganidra #Sunday # (at Metta Yoga)

Grocery store banter- · · Him (gestures at magazine cover) Dang, look at that power paleo couple. They probably just eat meat and fuck all day. · · Me: Look at this roll of vegan cookie dough - twelve goddamn dollars? They can eat my ass. · · Him: Why don't we get it and freeze it and then I'll shove it up your ass? · · (Looking at frozen pizzas-) · · Me: Guh. They're all gluten free. · · Him: I still want one....which one do you want? · · Me: The pepperoni, obviously. I ain't paying nine dollars for a pizza that doesn't have any godamn meat on it. · · · · #vegan #grocery #smacktalk #pizza #relationship #love #glutenfree #paleo (at Natural Grocers)

I JUST WANT TO BUY IT AT COSTCO · · (a recent free write, title courtesy of Jena) · · I feel like I'm in a grey area of the magic of life lately. Lately meaning this entire fucking year. · · I tell myself that if it's meant to be, it will be. · · But I know this is just a bunch of shit I tell myself to try to make even a sliver of sense of it. · · People say this too shall pass. And I do believe that. I have flashes of knowing that there is plenty about this time in my life that I will actually miss. · · I get scared sometimes though. Some people never get out of it. · · We are starting to come out of it though.....still a little gun shy because this year has been a struggle in every way: financially, with friends, family, work, creativity, health. · · I think of those who never get out of it. Who live out their old age on a fixed income and that's just that. · · I tell myself I'll be different simply because I want something different. · · And because I believe it's possible. · · Because there are sooooooo many things to be grateful for, even on the worst day. · · This past month I've been getting rid of so much physical shit -- fueled by the intense desire to move something, anything. · · At the same time, I found myself purchasing things I hadn't purchased in years -- laundry soap, fancy hand soap, pre-ground spices. · · I remarked that so many major things in my life had come to a close. · · I am no longer doing birth work or placenta encapsulatio or hosting Airbnb. · And I'm no longer obsessed with DIY fucking everything. I don't want to buy a shit load of ginger, dehydrate and grind it. · · I want to just buy it at Costco. · · I keep wondering what will come next. A lot of those things have been closed for some time. Still nothing new has come in their place. · · Though I've been struck by what has stuck. What friends are still here. What principles I still have. What knowledge has really cemented. What parts of me are going to be true forever, if any. · · And that's the magic of life, isn't it? Everything is temporary and we're just along for the ride. · · #writing #freewrite #writingprompt #Costco #DIY #airbnb #change

Morning musings from Starbucks. The cashier here is so chipper! "Good morning, Carol!" he chirps. Carol is a cute, fit older lady. I'd like for her to be my grandma. She can pull off those stretchy black pants and has a cute, loose fitting blue t-shirt over it. She has sassy hair like that woman the gays like. (Liza Minnelli - I had to google it). Now this fucking guy. He's leaning against the beverage bar.....Holding his phone at angle that looks like he's oh so obviously trying to take a sly selfie. He is sucking at that. He keeps sniffling and wiping his nose - the way you see guys strung out on coke do in the movies. It's really obnoxious. His knee length khaki shorts and the clear impression of a snuff can in his pocket don't help. As ghetto as that sounds, he actually looks like kind of a surfer dude. He's fake tan and dark blonde - hair buzzed on the sides and longer on top. He grabs a caramel drizzled whipped cream topped frappuccino for more sugar, because that will help him stop twitching and sniffling. Carol gets what looks like a classy beverage - an iced coffee with cream. She is getting more adorable by the second. A cute moderately sized bag hangs on her arm and her flip flops are darling and she's wearing some cute jewelry, but not too much. She takes her beverage over to the cream and sugar station and I hope she's not about to bastardize her coffee. Ah, no. She's just adding more cream. What the barista added wasn't enough for Carol. The only thing that's throwing me off is her over tweezed eye brows that are drawn in. But then she wins me over again when she wipes up her mess and other peoples messes. Maybe wasting too many napkins, but she can't help it. An old man walks up to her and exclaims, "They've got our seats today!" He's too old to be her husband....maybe her dad? He's happily walking around licking his lips. "Their" seats are in the window. He's got on a polo shirt and socks pulled up to his knees with slip on loafers.

Just some rambling thoughts while sitting in a Starbucks (P.S. it's a small Starbucks so I can hear everything). . . What the fuck kind of person orders a venti iced coffee with five splendas extra ice and skim milk? Fucking gag me. . . The kind of person that has bare legs, but hairy ankles and rolls in a dirty sun visor displaying one of those giant sunburned neck rolls on the back. . . I can hear people order, but the best part is when the barista calls it out when it's ready. They announce it with all of the specific details. I'm dying. . . "I have a tall, extra-hot chai with no extra water!" And the guy who ordered it is really cute and unassuming - bald, but with a sharp beard. In nice slacks and a dress shirt, glasses. Just looks like a pretty regular dude. And I wonder - is he that specific with the rest of his life? Like - does he just know exactly what he wants all the fucking time? Because that is a pretty specific drink. . . Whenever I see a hot person - like this girl that just walked in - I want to ask them how they got so hot. Like - what do they do? Excuse me hot girl, how the fuck are you so hot? . . She has those legs that - if you saw them in a magazine - you'd think they were air brushed. They're muscular and sculpted and that perfect shade of dark beige....not like she lays in a tanning bed, but also she's not afraid of the sun. She has on light denim shorts with the cuffs rolled up a couple of times. Super cute sandals that my wide manish feet would not look good in. And she has long blonde hair that's so free of fly aways and frizz that she just absolutely must flat iron it for an hour before she leaves the house. A cute tank top with cleavage that is also sculpted and perfectly displayed by the cut of the neck line. Perfect makeup, a super cute fucking bag. It's an oversized bag, but she can pull it off. Everything is manicured and curated. I want to hate her because mean girl society tells me too, but I actually love her. . . And she orders the craziest shit ever - (Continued in comments) . . . . #Starbucks #coffee #coffeeculture #hotgirl #writing #funny #coffeetime #coffeeshop #frappuccino
