Some Things You May Not Know About Me v.9

I pretty much only listen to music on Spotify now but every now and again if I'm in a super specific mood I have to listen to one of two Pandora stations I've had since college. They're perfectly curated and remind me of who I used to be when I'm missing her (or trying to find her again).

I have very weird toes--my pinky toe is tiny and kind of fits into a groove that's on the side of the one next to it. When I wear sandals my pinky toe is always hidden and Rob always goes "Oh no! What happened to your toe?" like it just disappeared, never to return again.

I love pork rinds. A lot. I get the spicy ones and dip them in Ranch dressing. It's gross and awesome.

I cry every time I listen to "Dear Theodosia" on the Hamilton soundtrack. Also right when they announce George Washington in "Right Hand Man." I can't explain it.

I get incredibly irritated whenever I see sponsored content on blogs or Instagram feeds that isn't properly disclosed. It's one of my biggest pet peeves and it makes me a little crazy.

At least once a week I wake up early but then set my alarm for another hour so I can snuggle Rob and Ender.

Some Things You May Not Know About Me v.8

If I'm having a snack that comes in a package I have to put it on a plate or in a bowl, but if I get takeout I always eat it right out of whatever container it came in. Rob is the opposite. (But really, isn't like half the point of getting takeout so you don't have to do dishes? I think so.)

One of my favorite things to do is look at how far cities are from each other on Google Maps and then plan hypothetical day trips.

I used to wash my hair only once a week but now it's more like every 10-12 days. I finally had a chance to try this stuff (affiliate link) in Las Vegas and it's ridiculous and amazing and will change everything. Dramatic much? It's true, though. I realized last week though that I don't actually hate washing my hair, I hate drying it (it takes forever).

I like my face a lot but wouldn't mind fuller lips. (As long as I don't have to do anything to get them--natural Angelina Jolie lips you just magically wake up with are a thing, right?)

I'm really interested in reducing waste and simplifying, especially when it comes to my kitchen (and closet)--I just bought a few of these reusable bags and I'm really excited about them. (If anyone has any tips or recommendations for simplifying their kitchens, closets, or cabinets I'd love to hear them!)

I've been in bed by 9:30 almost every night this year. It's awesome.

Some Things You May Not Know About Me v.7

I kind of hate almond butter. Whenever I see it drizzled on an acai bowl or a smoothie I shudder a little bit.

You could be my best friend in the world, but I'm still not going to like your Instagram photo if it has a misused apostrophe. Is this snobby and/or petty? Yes. But I can't help it.

I'm really bad about keeping in touch with people who matter to me. I haven't called (or even texted) some of my friends in months. Social media is so great because it keeps everyone connected, but at the same time it can do a real disservice to those of us we actually know personally. I often feel like I know what's going on with the people in my life without ever actually catching up with them.

I'm sort of intrigued by the idea of having eyelash extensions.

I thought I'd be bummed about the mild fall and winter here in the Bay Area (I love cold weather, and I'm starting to daydream about a snowy weekend away in Tahoe), but I'm actually kind of loving it. As my friend Melissa put it, "It's like the first day of fall every day!" It's been pretty fun experiencing completely different climates in every place we've lived.

I've been working on my second cookbook. (!!!!)
