Trying really hard to bloom where I am planted the

Trying really hard to bloom where I am planted these days 🌷 Today was a good one though—was asked to speak on a panel about social media and community by my favorite grad school professor and got to share all about how I met some of my best friends on the Internet and am now indulging in the best tater tots for dinner. It’s all downhill from here y’all! 🥂

Hey Alexa, play Work from Home by Fifth Harmony ☀️ This is the morning light in my new “office,” and it’s probably one of my favorite things about my new wfh life. (I also love that I’m not at the mercy of automatic blinds.) I did end up buying a “desk” this weekend—it’s basically a glorified TV tray and it arrives Thursday, but I think it’ll be nice to have a dedicated work space that I can fold up at the end of the day and hide in my linen closet. Other than discovering the “touch up my appearance” feature on Zoom, I think it’s upcoming arrival might be the highlight of my work week! 💓 I know I am so, so lucky right now, as I can work from home and am healthy, but this experience definitely is affirming to me I could never work from home long term—I love going into the office and being with my team too much! Here’s to hoping we can be at a six foot conference table, instead of six feet apart, soon 🤞🏻

Pretending my apartment is an all inclusive resort

Pretending my apartment is an all inclusive resort this weekend and dreaming of the massive vacation we’re all going to take when this is behind us 🌴☀️💦

I’m not heading to the Cherry Blossoms this year

I’m not heading to the Cherry Blossoms this year so I can do my part to socially distance since there were reports of large crowds yesterday afternoon (and one tree was even broken—ugh!), but wanted to share a few of my favorite shots I snapped on a golden hour walk last year ☀️🌸 And, great news—even if you’re not a Washingtonian, you can enjoy the blossoms this year, too! @thenationalmall has a #BloomCam that has live shots of these beauties at the Tidal Basin! And to all my Hoos out there—Good Morning, Mr. Jefferson 💓

Spring has sprung ☀️ Scenes from my walk & tal

Spring has sprung ☀️ Scenes from my walk & talk with @mcgrieco last night! We both went on an hour-long walk in our neighborhood and talked about what a decade this has been already 😂 After, I picked up sweetgreen for dinner and was initially beating myself up for not eating the food I have at home, but it was actually SO NICE to have a familiar and favorite meal! (Y’all know I don’t cook so this has been an adventure, hah!) 🥗 Happy Friday!
