Given my Boulder childhood and general Save the Pandas feelings, not surprising that I like natural beauty products (Botox is natural so shut up). When my beloved cleanser was discontinued I went in search of a new one. Well, this is not it. It works okay but smells EXACTLY like wasabi peas. I can’t.

The art of shopping at Forever 21 (when you are totally not 21)
The greatest myth about Forever 21 is that it’s target audience is 21 year old’s. Â The clothes are really geared towards middle schoolers, who have limited budgets, questionable taste, and 4% body fat. So, when a certain old lady goes wandering in there, you think, what the fuck? I am about 20 years too old…
Reward yourself for Adulting
You know those stickers kids get for doing the most basic shit? You brushed your teeth! Way to go for making it through a whole day without biting anyone!!! Well you deserve some props too.  Because being an adult is 95% doing things you don’t want to do and that no one notices or cares. Proving again…
Ootd: take that Friday
Obviously this shirt is not going to court with me, but it sums shit up pretty well. Â Props to my girl Paige Parker for this Etsy treasure. Â I will now index some police reports. Â Fuck off indeed.
Ootd: I am a storm cloudÂ
Yes it’s bright and blue here in Boulder but I have to do some Adult Lawyer Shit and am suited accordingly. I’ve made poor life choices.
Ootd : last days of summerÂ
Summer is wrapping up with beer & pizza festival. Most Boulderites are wearing activewear. I am, naturally, not.
Ootd: places to go
Dude, August is the worst. Â So hot. So busy. Â But September is here! And tights! Â Although still super busy and out the door.
Tipsy cooking: heart attack sticky buns
It’s generally important to eat healthy food, high fiber, no additives, blah blah blah. These sticky buns are gloriously unhealthy. Like, zero nutritional value. Â And yet, you will think about them every week until you give in and make them, eat them, and the cycle will repeat. They are fucking amazing. And require no actual…
Ootd: advanced lawn care
After a decade of successful avoidance, the husband has forced me to learn to mow. Â Maxi dress probably not best choice but I’m not wearing some hideous Capri dockers even if this ends in loosing a foot.
Vampire summer: A pale girl’s guide
I don’t do well in heat. Â Like rash/barf not well. Â I burn in 10 minutes and no, it does not turn into a “base tan” whatever the fuck that is. Â I burn, peel, freckle, and die. But yet, in what appears to be some kind of cycle, summer is here again. Â Yea. It’s not that…
Ootd: I just can’tÂ
The worst part of Adult is that you have to like, do shit. Â All the time. Â Even when you feel like dog balls and it’s raining. Â Luckily office friend has a Sherlock Holmes couch for self pity flopping. Wearing a cheerful skirt but it’s not working. Even a tweed/ floral combo can’t help me now….
