January Is

Girl Scout cookie time (did you know you can order Girl Scout cookies online now, BECAUSE YOU CAN, not everything about living in the future is terrible). Trying so, so hard to scroll less. Starting up the ol’ book promo machine. The Women Are Here podcast. Looking for a new show. A lot of back and forth to New York. The baby sitting up, eating solids, smiling to break my heart. Making complicated recipes. Making rice + beans with a crispy egg. Reading two books at once. Clacking away at a ghostwriting project. Working out some body image garbage. Feeling bored, but not surprised, by everything about awards season. Avon in her winter headquarters, parked in front of the heating vent. Listening to Broadway soundtracks in the afternoons. Still extremely tired and wondering if that’s just how it is now? Waiting on my Amaryllis. Getting the paper again. A few really beautiful days.
