The past couple weeks have been busy!

In the past two weeks, I (and sometimes Daniel):

• completed my first and second week at the new job
• made the discovery that I’m mildly allergic to vinyl
• bought some greige nail polish at Sephora
• wore shorts for the first time in 6+ months
• drank at least one cup of iced tea every day
• realized we’ve lived in Charlottesville for more than 8 months now
• went to Staunton to meet Daniel’s dad for breakfast
• took lots of photographs of flowers
• ate at a new Mexican restaurant
• went on a nature walk with a friend
• lamented the fact that my car AC no longer works
• thought about growing out my hair (again)
• attended a portion of the Tom Tom Founder’s Festival
• bought a vintage denim skirt at Low Vintage
• ate at Song Song’s Zhou and Bing with a friend (I really love that place)
• missed my old job
• finally bought some studs to wear in my second and third ear piercings
• made chocolate chip banana bread
• attended a fun potluck
• tried to make a daisy chain
• thought up a few new features for Style Wise
• reduced prices at Water Lily Thrift in honor of spring time
• contemplated how to balance ambition with contentment
• felt sorrowful over the return of house centipedes, sugar ants, and spiders
• talked to a friend on the phone
• got lots of allergy-induced headaches
