Today was a good, good day. I woke up on my own, not to an alarm. I made an iced mocha with the espresso machine I scored for $10 at a thrift store last week. I cleaned my room and planned my outfits for the trip I'm taking to San Diego next week to visit my sister (a trip which I spontaneously booked last night--beyond excited to play in the California sun all week!). I blasted reggae and put this dress on because the sun FINALLY came out. I made Chinese food. I met a friend for coffee and we let our feet walk wherever they wanted, over concrete and grass and trails and creeks. Tonight, I'll go see Moonrise Kingdom. Basically, today is a day to do whatever I want, and it feels goooood.
Back to work tomorrow, but today, I play. xo!
dress: Target, sandals & hat: Old Navy
Ps: the title is a lyric from the song "Marion Sunshine" by the Blue Scholars & you should definitely listen to it. It is sunshine in song form.
