Still in shock, to be honest.

Thank you WRAV for the opportunity of a lifetime by giving away trips like Tropic Like It's Hot. (The name is probably going to forever make me laugh.)

Cancun, I'm coming for you...sometime between now and April. ⛱️🌊👙🌴

P.S. Does anyone know what the humidity is like in Cancun? Asking for a friend.

It might be Tuesday, but I feel a need for judging some people singing karaoke while I drink something fruity. People should join me at High Note tonight to do that.

Hey, you. I wanted to check in and see how you were doing. Both in general and with everything with Verity. I've been trying not to be too nosy, but I can only do but so much.

Attention, everyone!

Starting tomorrow, Stella's will have a new special dish on the menu called the #fiance. It consists of spicy chicken and cheddar waffle sliders with jalapeno jam. Add a narwhal-shaped pastry on the side for a truly special meal that is both savory and sweet. And delicious, just like my man, Everett Marshall.

And a quick shout-out to one of my other favorite local haunts, The Pourhouse, where you can end your day with my favorite, the Soon-to-Be Stella Marshall, aka the jalapeno mojito. (I just made that up so you should probably just ask for a jalapeno mojito.)

❤️😍😘👰💍💒❤️🥳🎉🍾😊❤️

Look at that. I was taught today how to use a filter by one of my students before class. I think that my students may or may not be planning to try to make Ms. Liang hip and cool. I'm pretty sure it's a whole movement that I'm not supposed to know about.

Anyway, now I know how to do them. (I tried to do the dog ears one, but I couldn't get it to work. Pretty sure that I shouldn't have admitted that and might have lost most of my cool credits.) Is this yeeting? Am I allowed to dab now? Some other joke about Tide pods?

[Texts to Ash]

→ Verity's memories are back.
→ They just... came back. All at once, I guess.
→ When we were at the museum in DC.
→ It was the anniversary of the day we met.
→ And
→ Ugh
→ Okay
→ I kissed her.
→ Like... a kiss kiss.
→ I don't even know why.
→ I'd never wanted to before.
→ There were just emotions.
→ And I thought she'd never be herself again, you know?
→ And we'd never be who we were again.
→ But she definitely wasn't a fan.
→ So I think I'm just going to never mention it again.
→ Good plan, right?

This is just a general public service announcement that we've officially entered into my favorite time of year and Stella's is about to reach peak spookiness.

EVE, NOAH, ASH

Things I would really love to do today:

1. Take a bath (with bath bomb, book, toffee, and wine, obviously)
2. 'Accidentally' run into Jace Atwater walking his dog somewhere in town so that I can pet the cutest corgi for approximately fifteen minutes
3. Sample every pastry at Sweet Nothings
4. Marry the absolute frick out of Everett Marshall
5. Buy a really cute tea towel and potholder set for Halloween (in duplicate so that Ev's house can be cute, too)
6. Get my nails done

I realize now that this is two weeks old news and with the internet being what it is, probably most everyone has seen this, but I'm going to share it anyway because I do what I want.

Look at this. Cinderella with a glass arm -- absolutely awesome. Apparently when I was toddler age, Cinderella was my Disney movie of choice to watch over and over again. I don't really know why, but I suspect it had something to do with having animals to hang out with all of the time. (Jaq and Gus are severely underrated in the Disney zeitgeist, just saying.) Regardless, given that I was three when the accident happened and would have been right in the middle of the Cinderella obsession, I feel like seeing something like this as a kiddo, just like she mentions in the Facebook post, would have been rather amazing. I don't remember a lot from back then because I was just young enough, but I think that I can say that with all certainty.

Anyway, I just wanted to share that with the general populace. It's too good not to share.

Is there going to be a prom king/queen at this prom? Because I was queen for my senior prom and I might have to defend my title. 👸🏾 😈

(And before anyone thinks I'm serious, please know that I am so very kidding.)

Hi, everyone! Another post so soon? Thanks to Naomi's brilliant idea, I'm going to put together a resource accessible to anyone dealing with the Dreams that essentially just lists who is being dreamed of and any other pertinent details you might think need to be included for others to identify that they're at least sharing dreams about the world even if they don't know the name. For example, it might look like:

Leia Organa-Solo - From Alderaan, daughter of Breha and Bail Organa
Han Solo - Made the Kessel run in less than 12 parsecs, from Corellia

Just leave a note here, anonymously or not, letting me know the name of who you are dreaming about and anything else you want to mention. If you want YOUR name attached to it, as well, for shared dreamers to more easily get in touch with you, let me know. Otherwise, I'll attach your Anon ID so that others can filter you anonymously!

This is totally optional, but I hope you'll consider doing it, at least anonymously!

All right, my friends, this one can relate to the Dreams, or just your life here. Commenter's choice! Anonymously, or not anonymously, tell me what song--or songs--is stuck in your head or on repeat on your Spotify playlists. Drop a link, share lyrics, whatever you want. And feel free to provide context, or not. Anything goes. I just want to know what's currently on your soundtrack.

XING + JUN

Okay, it has been nearly a week of me ignoring the drives and tendencies that come with a lifetime of being an older sister and I can't do it anymore. Please note that I really did try, but the need to be nosy has grown to be too much and I can't do it anymore. It's out of my hands, really.

All that being said: she's very cute, Xing. 😏
