I don’t know guys, but I don’t think I’ve had enough espresso today...two cappuccinos and two lattes later...☕️. Thanks Tim and James! ☔️ #coffeecoffeecoffee #coffeeshop #rainytuesday #presentations #macbookair #weloveatl #atlanta #atl #nicethings
A year ago today, I moved back to Atlanta. After being gone for over a year, I was a different person returning to what felt like a completely different city. Every day since I’ve been back has felt familiar and different — both at the same time. A psychic told me I’m here, again, because I have soul lessons to learn from this city. I guess until I’ve learned all these soul lessons I’m here. 💗 #weloveatl #atlanta #atlantabeltline #hereweareagain #secondtimesacharm #cityliving #home #studiocln
I never thought I would become a Taylor Swift fan, but one day on a backcountry road in Lexington, Virginia in 2008 I heard the lyrics “And I don’t know why but with you I dance in a storm in my best dress — fearless” and I felt so seen, so strangely understood by someone I only ever chalked up to being a love obsessed country star. In 2012, Red came out…and I was moved. Deeply. By the hits. By the banjo on what felt like were larger-than-life stadium anthems about love and loss. By the autumnal imagery. But mostly by that one song — you all know the one: “All Too Well.” To this day, I am still so shocked (and often shattered) to my core that it exists…those lyrics, that bridge, the third verse, that Grammy performance. Red changed me. And then did 1989. You haven’t lived until you’ve driven with me to “Out of the Woods” and you can’t even begin to imagine the necessity of needing “New Romantics” at that point in my twenty-something year old life. When Taylor went quiet, “played the victim,” turned into a snake — I missed her. I never stopped listening to her music. I never stopped being a champion for her and the legend she’s created. When Reputation came out, one year ago today, I didn’t know if I liked it. I didn’t know if it was the album I wanted. I didn’t know what it would mean to me. Here we are a year later and this album changed me and it’s continuously surprised me, shown up for me, and taught me things about one of my biggest battles over the last year: love — romantic love — and love for yourself and the process of where you are and what it’s like to begin anew. So thank you, @taylorswift, for giving me this record and for reminding me, a difficult (by society’s standards) and cynical 30 year old girl who somehow so deeply believes in love despite it all at the end of the day — if you hold onto the memories, they will hold onto you. 🐍 🎹🎸🎤💄🐍 #taylorswift #reputationtour #reputationstadiumtour #reputationera #reputation #taylornation #isntitisntitisntit #delicate #endgame #readyforit #newyearsday #longlive #thisiswhywecanthavenicethings #callitwhatyouwant #getawaycar #lookwhatyoumademedo
