hi, i'm laura. i
live in dc but love my
indiana home.
for my job i do
political email. but
this one is different.
i mean my god i
won the listserve. this is so
exciting! ... this is
so terrifying.
what to write to you all? one
day maybe you'll know
this unique rush of
emotions. me, i was just
at home, cuddling
with my cat Bartlett.
the usual. when i found
out. can you guess who
he is named after?
(i took creative license
with the spelling, so
no googling, k?)
recently, my favorite
movies: austin to
boston, and about
time. currently reading: the
life-changing magic
of tidying up.
though i have yet to start down
this minimalist
decluttering path
i'm excited, already
to recommend it.
what books and movies
should i check out next? also,
what's making you the
most happy, lately?
for me, caprese salad
with tomatoes fresh
from the farm market.
and a cold beer out on the
patio, or a
glass of rosé on
city rooftops with girl friends .
and i can't forget
seeing taylor swift
live in concert, her first night
in DC, and it
was just magical
beyond your wildest dreams. the
rest of the world was
black and white, but we
were in screaming color. she
sang and danced all night
45,000
of us joined her, joyfully
screaming together.
and she gave us some
truly inspirational
life-changing advice.
will you please be kind
to yourself today? or at
least a little bit
kinder than you were
yesterday. also, friends and
cats over boys. duh.
so will you tell me
what is inspiring you?
or making you the
most happy, lately?
hashtag #LCListserve with
whatever it is
i can't wait to see!
especially babies or
cats. i just love those.
also, bonus for
including your own haiku!
you could also just
reply and send them
to me directly. big fan.
(in case you missed it).
thank you so much for
reading. you can follow me
on twitter / insta
if you're into gifs,
feminism, and cat pics.
