Int. The Room - Day
The Room, was the one place she found herself when she wasn't quite...feeling herself. Her eyes followed it's mismatched pattern on the walls. The Room, was between this world and another. Not quite of the present or of the past. Somewhere between radio and television. When she was there she was actually somewhere else. And so, she stayed.


Doing a double take of today, I have a hard time believing it isnt't a Monday. I woke up (not like this), but to thunderstorms, a headache, power that was only staying on for 30 minutes at a time, and a fight with my eyeliner that I wound up forfeiting because there is only some many times I can draw these wings on without completely losing my sanity. I had higher hopes for these photos, but due to the cloudy skies outside it made lighting a bit difficult. Honestly, I even feel bad posting them because they are NOT up to my standards, but I also can't wait 3 more days for the rain to pass through so that I can retake them because I really don't want to be gone from here for that long! AnYwAyZ, I'm done complaining, just forgive me for this gross display of photography.

Good things about today, I got to wear my new socks, which might just be my new favorites. Together with the black heels it almost looks like that pair of Jeffery Campbells on NastyGal that I didn't let myself buy last week. There were enough Reese Puffs in the box for my bowl of cereal this morning. Also, today marks two weeks until my vacation to the beach. Yay!

Ext. Cherokee Motel - Day
With a "thank you" she passes some cash to the front of the cab and slides out the door. The driver wishes her good luck as dust collects behind the tires and it pulls back onto the two lane road. Judging by the height of the sun she figured it must be at least 7:00. The flickering light of the VACANCY sign catches her eye and she's off to check in.


Once upon a time, about 2 weeks ago, I was scrolling through Instagram when I passed, and then scrolled back up to, a picture of a flat lay including this flowy floral piece of perfection. Immediately, I made it my mission to have this dress for myself,  even if it was a size too big. Really though idk if  "too big" is a possible thing when it comes to shifts like this. More fabric = more that I can eat without people noticing my stomach bloating, right? It's kind of brilliant actually. More pizza? Yes, please. Dessert? You betcha. I may be canceling out all of the good that came from my morning work out, but hey at least I still look cute! We gotta get emojis on Blogger, the whatever hand girl would be so perfect here.

For the rest of my night, I'm probably going to be scrolling through Netflix looking for something that looks even slightly as interesting as Taylor's Bad Blood video. I've watched it at least 4 times since it aired the other night. Why is it not an actual show, movie, book, life? Anyways, if you've got any suggestions for me, feel free to send them along through the comment box below, tumblr, insta, I do it all, baby.

Small Town Streets

Ext. Forest Ave. - Day
Sounds of the city play as she turns to leave the flower stand and walks down a quiet Forest Avenue. She adjusts her hat with each blow of the wind and keeps her eyes wide and absorbent of the every day beauty around her. 


Back in Tennessee, and feeling like I'm on set of The Virgin Suicides while walking down this pretty little side street dotted with old victorian doll house style homes. This day, I wore my Granny's old straw hat and took my little red shoes for a walk admiring the beauty of this southern small town that is often overlooked with the taste of cherry vanilla creme soda fresh in my mouth and a handful of roses I bought myself because they were beautiful, and do I really need a better reason than that? I think it's really important to keep romance alive in our every day lives, and I don't mean necessarily mean relationship wise, but just life wise. Drive by your favorite houses just because they're there. Lie out in the grass during your favorite times of the day. Wear your Sunday best on Wednesday. Let your imagination show you your tallest dreams and let it take you places you never knew you wanted to go. Don't let the world or devils in your head talk you down from them. Go off on whims, and create scenarios that have yet to happen. See the things you want and work for them. Look at all of the small things around you find the loveliness within them. Be a romantic. Be a hopeless one. It's not ignorant. It's to stupid. It's important.

Sorry about my little go off there, but I do think it's an important statement to make. Of course, now I really want some more cherry vanilla creme coke and to re-watch The Virgin Suicides now that I've let my mind go there, but unfortunately my to-do list is probably as long as Santa's at this point so I don't have time. However, I have managed to find time to recheck Forever 21's website every few hours to see if they've restocked my size in a shirt I've been dying for yet... and yep I do realize how ridiculous that sounds, but like they say, nothing haunts us like the clothes we didn't buy! That is so first world problems, but also so true.

Ext. Soddy Daisy Back Road - Day
When she got something in her head it didn't easily go away. Headstrong on leaving she rips a piece of cardboard and rummages for a Sharpie. S-H-A-K-Y K-N-E-E-S, she writes. Throwing the pin back in the drawer and slamming it behind her, she tightens up her laces, puts up her thumb, and heads down a winding back road.

Hello from Atlanta! And no, I didn't actually hitch hike. I've seen way to much Criminal Minds for that. I did, however, make it to the Shaky Knees Festival and have been having a blast since Friday (which is when I meant to post this but I couldn't find wifi...sorry!)! So far, I've completely lost my mind at the fact that I finally got to see The Strokes (duh!), found out that ZZ Ward's voice is every bit as good in real life as it is on my iTunes, brought it on the floor to Milky Chance, and didn't even think about how my feet were 100% numb until I got back to the hotel because The Avett Brothers were ABSOLUTELY KILLING IT! I'm serious! I had never seen them live before and I was so lost in their energy and their passion and the way that the cello player shreds that thing! I've also been thriving off all of this sunshine and making sure to get my daily popsicle intake. Can't wait to see what today has in store!
