this is my dog and we like to party.


my hiking get up...holiday tank, ex boyfriend boxer briefs, thrifted button down.


Carl and I hit up our favorite hiking spot yesterday.
I love seeing that pup out in the wild. 





Hiking Poem

there was a large flat stone
we passed on the hike
just to the side of the trail
and i wanted to touch it.
see if it was cool.
it was.
and i wanted
to put my bare breasts 
against it.
so i did.
lifted my shirt
and with no one watching,
pancaked right up to it.
hugged the cold blue
until my nipples got hard
then
laughed
and
laughed
for the fuck of it.

snake belt kingdom.







tee tank- thrifted, melrose trading post
cut off levis- thrifted, leopard lounge
boots- thrifted, melrose trading post
snake belt- gift from dear STEPH
moon necklace- vintage


Welp, this was my 4th of July day drinking get up. I had to refrain on Thursday from engaging in a political discussion about America and government in a series of instagram comments...emotions are too high on this day of commercialized patriotism and sometimes it is just better to keep your anti establishment mouth closed. I met up with my friend Caitlin at a party on the east side. The house was absolutely beautiful and I had the perfect day with some perfect humans who just so happen to be "American" ...whatever that even means. Someone brought Shiner Bock beer (liquid Texas) and I got to lie on the most beautiful zebra print rug beside Olive the pup while my pal Caitlin painted the snake from my belt tearing venom into the american flag on my left upper thigh. A pretty perfect day if you ask me. 

(By the way is this snake belt not the most wonderful thing you've ever laid eyes on???? 
My best friend is the best gift giver.) 

Also, my legs are wrecked from Carl the Dog cone slamming into me, so bruises and scrapes are my new staple accessory. 

Also, I chopped off all my hair, impulsively, on my way home from work Wednesday. I feel like it has something to do with The Goodbye Girl which I just recently watched and also maybe that I miss my mother who had very short hair through all of my childhood...anyway I'm not gonna delve too far into the WHY but I can safely say this was one of my best impulses. 

Ramble-y as fuck post, I know. 
Catch ya soon, interwebz.

what lines the cupboards above the stove?








striped open knit top- thrifted forever 21
unicorn patch shorts- thrifted
belt- vintage
jesus necklace-  Flea Market Girl
genie lamp pin- family vintage



here's a poem, interwebz.



what is written in the spaces I cannot reach
without step stool or boost
what lines the cupboards above the stove
does such a land exist past the stretch
of my tippiest toes
how can I spend a forever
straining to touch
what I cannot see

are there numbers
hidden in bee stings
equations of why 
in the curvature of a question
marksmanship is a virtue
when the target is something
but it could be everything
and how would you even know
the hardware is powder blue porcelain
but the wood has rot 
and black mold 
and a termite momma is raising
an army alone without any man
because she doesn't need him
but I am sinking 
into the crack of the linoleum
where the floor caves in
from a faulty foundation
and one day when the city
falls into the sea
the plates will open and
take me and
the papers will read

"girl spends her whole life looking up;
dies as she's swallowed
by the ground beneath her feet."

rose budz.





blouse- thrifted
cut off Levis- Leapord Lounge, Houston


I think this top is possessed with some kind of perfect magic. It is very sheer, like in the back you can see straight through to my pale little back bone but somehow, I don't know if its the giant roses or what, but this shirt manages to do what we as womankind could only dream of sheer tops being capable of, and that is being light, loose and see through while at the same time not compromising the nipple. There's like zero nipple exposure, it's magic. Ultimately I could care less if you can see some nip action through my shirt but on the nanny gig I gotta mask those little lady discs so this shirt is the perfect summer staple for a working class girl such as myself. Also the color palette/print...like c'mon it looks like a terrible awesome sofa you find on the side of the street and you're like who would ever get rid of such a perfect floral lounging device and you get it back to your apartment somehow and make many memories on it. (or maybe I'm just the only one who assigns spiritual significance/nostalgia to trash furniture)
