Cheers. Cheers to a year full of momentous ups and monumental downs. Cheers to being better for it. Cheers to the travels, the adventures, the risks. Cheers to ringing in the year on a snowmobile and wrapping it up on the beach. Cheers to Burning Man! Cheers to the late nights, the early mornings. Cheers to the music… Read More Cheers to Us
It was a sunny Sunday. Everyone was in the park. Picnicking. Reading. BBQing. Playing volleyball. I was experiencing the first symptoms of bronchitis and laying in bed. Do you want to go to Mister Sunday, Fi? A bunch of us are going; it’s going to be a good one today. Hmm…I’m actually not feeling…Yes. Yes, I’ll go. Mister… Read More Helmet Head
What was the best part about Burning Man? ALL OF IT. No, really. What was your favorite part? ALL OF IT. Ok…least favorite part? NONE OF IT. In the years past, I didn’t actually know what Burning Man was. People talked about it. But if you weren’t there to live and breathe it, all that chatter about “the playa” and… Read More Well That Was Fun…
We’ve all been through a lot lately. The shock of this past week’s events have me sitting silent, trying to figure out where and how I, Fi, can help create the change we need. It’s been hard to watch people just like you and me act so violently, be taken from this world so mercilessly, and… Read More Unanswered Prayers
Saturday in the park, I think it was the Fourth of July. People dancing, people laughing, A man selling ice cream, singing Italian songs. Every time I hear Chicago or Steely Dan, I think of my dad. Some of my fondest memories from when I was a little girl were when I’d walk into the… Read More These Songs Remind Me of You
Last year I said “yes” to some music festival called Sasquatch. I quickly learned it involved plenty of unfamiliar things. Camping. How does one camp? New people. Will they like me? An unknown place. Where am I again? Live music all day long. Ahhh yeahhhh. It was just a bit different than anything I’d ever done. And I… Read More Gone to Sasquatch
I recently came home from a blast of a weekend at Coachella in Indio, California. I danced around the desert to the tunes of Miike Snow, Flume, and Grimes. I sang at the top of my lungs along with LCD Soundsystem, Ice Cube, and Sia. I made new friends who had me laughing and giddy the entire weekend.… Read More Come As You Are
If someone asks, this is where I’ll be.
I feel like I have so much to tell you. I’m having a really solid “yes” week and it’s only Wednesday. Sunday AM: Like the time I said “yes” to running 11 miles, which is just insane. I can’t believe I actually did that. Sunday PM: And when I said “no” to Sunday night blues and… Read More Brighter and Better
A Sunday well spent brings a week of content. Is it possible to have the best Sunday ever like every week? Tonight, @sofarnyc brought some musical magic to this intimate space by bringing in the sweet sounds of Forth Wanderers, the dope beats of Yoh the Shandolin (seen here) and the acoustic hotties of Oak… Read More On Sundays,We…
