life lately

what i've been listening to (on repeat, in full hydranchular fashion): 

i'm not her biggest fan, but style by taylor swift is on repeat in my apartment every morning while i get ready for work/school/eating.

also this little t swift diddy. so beautiful it makes me tear up a little.

honey, honey. this song reminds me of summertime. and the video is super weird. worth four minutes of your time.

i listen to this entire album every night to go to sleep. i'm obsessed.

other things i love right now:

    

these from braden graeber. brie mine. let's french.

this, this, and this from a cup of jo. do you ever feel like sometimes you just hit the blog jackpot? like every time you click a link on someone's blog, you love the post? i feel that so hard with a cup of jo.

it might be that there has been a pregnancy surge in my neighborhood, or that i've been working the morning shift at work lately (morning shift = lots of stay at home moms and nannies with cute lil babes), but i am on a baby kick lately. no tugs at the uterus or anything like that, but i just can't get over all the cheeks and noises and whispy baby hairs. @ashley_glass on instagram has the best feed with her sweet babe. i can't get over her facial expressions!

        

you guys know how much i love falling in love with someone on the train. i just love the idea of seeing someone you're attracted to for some reason (for me it's usually a nice beard and some freckles or maybe glasses or maybe they're wearing cool sneakers or something) and playing house in your mind for five minutes. 

a few days ago there was an older man with a greying beard wearing his beanie in a jaques cousto type of way, and i pictured his wife being the type of woman with long silver hair and lime green reading classes from anthropologie. she went to school for something practical like nursing and volunteers her time working with planned parenthood. she's really cool and wears red snakeskin cowboy boots because why not?

i wanted to be this woman i made up in my head for the five minutes she existed. 

anyways, this is an instagram dedicated to takin sneaky pics of hot dudes reading. 

this podcast is a new obsession i've added to my queue. i listen to podcasts on the train and while i run at the gym, and i burn through them pretty quickly. call your girlfriend makes me laugh out loud while i'm running on the treadmill, and i'm pretty sure it shaved a good 30 seconds off my mile for the last week. i like it. i like it a lot.

and i'm crazy about this post on screenshatting from hey natalie jean.

finally: drooooooool/ hee hee
