Hello guys, welcome back to another episode. I'm Taylor and I'm Sam. How are you doing this Tuesday morning? Dude, my voice is like a little bit better, but yesterday was horrendous. It was. We usually record on Mondays now, as of now, and yesterday I woke up with the worst voice. It was like painful to talk and I know by the end of this it's gonna probably get worse, but I'm just happy that like I kind of have it right now. But yeah, I'm feeling great. Feels like a Monday morning. Yeah.

yeah it's definitely this week is hitting me like a fuck ton of bricks like as most do but is what it is just like a lot to get done it's like there's not that many days in the week for me these days like i wish the monday through friday was like seven days in its own like i don't know i don't have enough there's not enough hours to like complete the week it's it's truly just

It's truly just not happening. I know. The amount of hours Monday through Friday aren't truly adding up, but we keep going. We just pretend that we're doing it all and

That's what it is. And that's why I think this week's episode topic is like perfect. It is. Because this week I was on a bender per se, which we'll get into. But this week toward the end, we want to talk about how we stay on track with like our routine, like our post going out girls night routine. Yeah. The post going out routine is huge. And just like, I feel like it's like romanticizing the next day. Oh, yeah. Romanticizing it. Like romanticizing the next day kind of.

kind of the vibe but um anyways what's what's one thing about you this week um i couldn't fucking decide what i wanted to say what my one thing about me was because there's so much happens this week but um one thing about me i realized i love music festivals i love edm music i just love that

Like, live. It's so fucking cool. So, yeah, I'm going to be for the next, like, week and a half, two weeks just listening to all the music I was listening to at the music festival. I just love them and I want to book a million more music festivals. Yeah. It's so funny because, like, I had the exact opposite takeaway after ACL. Really? Well, just, like, I was at ACL and, like, every time there was, like, an EDM on, like,

like we just kept being like who the fuck likes this like we were literally like i don't get it like we were like this is so weird like it's just not it's not for me yeah you you should be happy that you didn't come with our our group then yeah which is if you guys were like oh my god like where's taylor like i know you guys probably saw content and we're like where is she i miss her so much get her in the pictures i know i know um

it's just like quite literally my worst nightmare to be in like a group of people who are like loving the edm i just don't like it it's just not for me um and acl is a fucking push and like like the fomo hit a little bit but then i just have to remember i'm like you that's like not my scene like my social battery my social anxiety my but it's just not my scene that like brings me joy so i was like

I'll skip. I'm sorry. I'm sorry because for the next like hour I'm going to brag about how much fucking fun I had. Right. It's just like not my fun. I know. I know. It's just not my fun. Which is like a lot of people ask me all the time because I've made TikToks before being like I'm over having FOMO. One because I'm just like fucking antisocial and two because like I've just become at peace knowing like

what I like to do. Yeah. If that makes sense. Yeah. So it's like knowing what brings me. Yeah. Like if it's not going to like bring me joy. But one thing about me is that yesterday I fucking cooked meat at home. Yeah, you did do that.

I couldn't think about it. How did that make you feel? So, it's been fine. I had a bite of steak, which I posted on TikTok. That, like, messed up my digestion for, like, a day. Nothing awful, but it was just... She was gassy, dude. She was fucking farting up a storm. I had to get away to put a gas mask on. I had, like, cramps. Like, it just, like, wasn't it. I was like, something's a little bit wrong. Also, she's lying. No, I'm not. But, um...

Then I had chicken over the weekend, which like we'll talk about our weekend. And I just kind of like full sent it. I've just been telling myself it's like impossible chicken. I'm like, it's not real chicken. It's vegan chicken. If I think about it for too long, I will get really, really sad. Yeah.

So I literally, there has to be zero thoughts behind my brain and I just have to go for it. But yeah, I made chili and I put ground turkey in it and I cooked it. You know that chicken that's like now FDA approved? That's like the fake chicken from the chicken cells of like the chicken without killing the chicken. Oh, milk is like that too. Dude, okay. So I have come across so many TikToks of that chicken. Yeah.

It terrorizes me. Why? Because it's like it's like stringy and like you can like rip it apart and it's like it's disgusting looking. Sorry if I'm like rooting chicken for you right now. But like no no you're not. I'm just so happy that I haven't come across it because people have been making TikToks of like oh like the chicken that I usually get at Trader Joe's like this doesn't look like the chicken like this looks like the chicken that's fucking fake and like they're taking their hands and you can't just take it.

a chicken breast and like rip it with your hands and they were literally like opening it up and like ripping with their hands it was like stringy like string cheese yeah but i don't think they're just replacing that with normal chicken no they're not it's just like helping the demand i think with the chicken and like trying to keep the prices lower but like if you buy normal chicken breast it's not just gonna say normal chicken breast and not be chicken i don't think so i don't know like if she bought like chicken breast like that'd be the real chicken not the because

Like, I don't think they would just, like, replace it with the, like, engineered chicken without you knowing. I think so, though. Because I've, I don't know, maybe just the videos that I've been seeing, but, like, people are, like, the usual chicken I would get at, like, Kroger's or something. Like, this is the usual chicken, and I thought it was weird, and they're, like, she's, like, opening it up and, like. Weird. I'll have to TikTok search that and see. But they do that with milk, too, which is really crazy. But, yeah, I'm just not thinking about it. And cooking it was kind of fine. Again, just didn't think about it.

Didn't think about it at all. And I have to have no thoughts behind my brain, but I did cook it. So that's really interesting. There you go. Favorites of the week. My favorite of the week is walkie talkies at music festivals. Dude, I cannot wait to dive into this topic because I just like

Fucked around with the walkie-talkies all weekend but if you don't have walkie-talkies at a music festival and you're gonna try to find your friends like best of luck because we had no service Anywhere trying to text people so every now and then there would be like hot spots where I would have service But with a big group of like 20 of us it was impossible. We had six walkie-talkies, which unfortunately something got taken away But that's like my new go-to thing, especially when I went to a lenium at um Moody center for some reason they didn't have service Did you have service when you went to the concert there?

Maybe, but I wasn't really texting people. But you're in a seat at the Moody Center. I know, but we didn't have service in there. Who do you need to text? We had other friends that were at the concert that we were trying to meet up with. Yeah, and I couldn't text them.

Or if, like, we would go to the bathroom and then, like, we'd lose, like, our seats and, like, forget we were, like... Because, like, we technically weren't in our sides. Well, actually, no. That concert, you didn't buy your seat. You bought by level. So, like, you either bought ground, you bought first tier or second tier, and you could sit anywhere. Got it. Yeah. So that's why it was going to be used. But walkie-talkies, get them on Amazon. Ten bucks. Cool. If any... I'm, like, a newbie to, like, the whole, like, fucking that type of shit. I feel like...

I bet you all the EDM girlies listening to this right now are like, Sam, like, shut up. We already knew this. Probably. And I'm just like, okay. People, the rave culture goes hard and they're a little mean. The rave culture is crazy, bro. They're a little mean. They come at people online. I know. Be nice to me. God. Welcome me into the clan. I want to start going. Yeah, they might not. No one's going to give you a friendship bracelet.

I know. It's not. Sorry. It's not called friendship bracelets. What is it? It's called candy. Oh, I want candy. Well, they might not give you. It's like you do that like handshake and then they like put the bracelet on your hand. How do I know? I don't think I'm ever going to get that deep into it. Oh, that's just like what people do. They like cherry like a Taylor Swift concert. You like trade bracelets. Yeah. Yeah.

I guess you would say the Swifties are like also kind of like the rave people. So when at Taylor Swift concerts, when everyone was talking about friendship bracelets, all the rave people were like, you're appropriating rave culture. Like that's not it's not friendship bracelets. It's called candy. Oh, my God. Are the ravers going to fight the Swifties? Noah Raver was really mad and all the comments were like, bestie, like.

It's a bunch of girls wearing friendship bracelets. It's going to be okay. Like, for real. Like, it's truly going to be okay. My favorite is, like, total opposite direction. Nothing related. The Dibs contour sticks. Because we went to a Dibs event, like, the beauty brand. And I've had them. I kind of stopped using them. I don't know why. I don't think I had the right shades for me. Yeah, it's hard. The shades are very, like, different. Yeah. They're not, like...

different tones like slowly like they're all over the place. I don't think I had the right shades for me which is why I probably was never that into them but the one I have I don't know if she like looked at us and like gave us two or just gave us two random ones dark as fuck and I was like oh this is too dark for me and like I put it on and I'm like

It just melts so quickly. Yeah, and I'm really into them. I'm really into them. I'm glad we went to the event because I'm very into those. I love them because they're duo with the blush. So then if you're going out, I don't have to bring... If I want to touch on my makeup, I don't have to bring two different things. I have the stick. But I wish, though...

from a from a marketing perspective i don't like dual-sided things like i like i would like it better if maybe you could like mix and match and like make it or make it custom and because it's like the bronzer that i just used today that's really really dark the blush is really dark because the whole thing is for darker skin tones yeah the blush is a little too dark i want like my blush from the other one and the darker contour yeah that makes sense so that's like

Sometimes bothers me because I'm like, okay, I don't want to have to bring like two of these sticks because I want this blush and that bronzer. Do you know what shade you have? The one I used today was 5.5. Me too. You don't like that blush? I didn't use it. Oh. Is it good? Yeah, I like it. It like scared me. I'm not using it right now, but I do like it. I have the contour on right now. Okay, yeah. But yeah, I really like those sticks. Well, if you are looking to get dibs, 5.5 is what we both have compared to our faces. I'll try the blush. Maybe I'm wrong, but...

I like my other blushes that I had in the different shades. All right. Into hot gossip. I only have a few things written down. I'm not fully caught up in Love is Blind, but I saw you were watching the reunion last night. I'm at the marriages right now. Ah. Yeah. And I don't want to spoil it one for myself or anyone else listening, but I guess we can talk all the way up to the marriages if you want. And if you're not caught up to the marriages, please just fast forward the next three minutes so you don't spoil it for yourself. But...

I just don't know how I feel about... What the fuck? Lydia? Lydia's... Milton? Milton. Oh, I fucking love... Milton's the best one on the show. Okay, hold on. Hold on. I like him in the sense of he's so nice, but he's way too logical. Everything is like... It's like a math equation in his brain. I'm like, bro, it's not that deep. Why is everything a math equation? 100%, but...

he's like the only fucking level-headed person no hundred percent person that seems like he's too level-headed though yeah but everyone else is so batshit crazy and i feel like he's sitting there like you guys are batshit crazy like you guys are really insane like i feel like he really understands what's going on like that whole all the conversations with uche and stuff he just seemed like why the fuck does this matter stop talking to me like he does not seem in the

drama. Like, he just, like... Yeah, he doesn't like it. He, like, loves Lydia and wants to leave and actually is so level-headed. And...

Which I think is crazy because you would think the youngest would be like trying to get the clout, trying to do all this stuff when like these 35 year olds are batshit fucking nuts. Crazy. And he's like so normal. Yeah. And he's like six, seven. Yeah. The only issue I have is like he's way too logical. Yeah. Like when he talks, I'm like, did you go to Harvard or something and like take away? I know he's so smart, but I'm like, did you take like a love class in Harvard? And like it's.

it's the whole class was just like math like what's going on but like i'm like kind of obsessed with him and lydia i was kind of a lydia hater and then throughout the season i realized uche is the problem yeah and i became a lydia i won't say stan because again i think every single person on this show is insane but like i like her more now that i realize that uche is the fucking crazy one because i

I don't fuck with him being like, she's crazy. She looked at girls. I followed stories. Every fucking girl does that. Like, does she need a burner account? Yes. Yeah. But like, I'm sorry. Is it a crime to brave over to do it? Just out in the open? Yeah. Brave. But like, is it a crime to stalk girls that your ex is dating? Yeah. Then I'm sorry. We're all fucked. Everyone does that.

like let's not make it seem like she's the craziest person to ever fucking exist um but i like her i kind of fuck with her in milton because like they're both scientists and they're both like nerds i'm not understanding the age gap neither a 30 year old woman and a 24 year old man doesn't click in my head button to each of their whatever like we said he's he's mature he's smart so like he has like the brain of like a 35 year old man he just has the body of a 24 year old

Yeah, and it's also I think trips me up a lot because he looks very young and she looks a little bit older. Dude, imagine if he shaved his face. Oh, hell no. He would look 18. Like because they look so different in age, it like looks extra different because we know some people that are like in their 30s and then like we have friends that are like in their 40s.

earlier mid-20s and everyone kind of looks the same same age but like they to me look very different in age but like i'm i'm stan did you see any wedding no i haven't seen a wedding yet that's the next episode but another thing i was so confused i don't know if i just like was kind of like half asleep during like one of the parts but with izzy with his credit and like all he said which

Like, when they were talking about it, I thought that he was going to say he was in, like, hundreds and thousands of dollars in debt. No, she's a bad credit score. And I know, and I was like, bro, like, it's not that deep. I think she's just very into that shit. Well, she's a bitch. I know. So that's where I can see him being scared, like, going to her and saying it. But, like, the way they kind of, like...

created the episode when I was at least watching it, I was like, oh my God, like he's like, did something illegal. Like he's in hundreds and thousands of dollars of debt. I kind of got that same vibe too. Like I'm like, oh my God, like what is this horrible scenario? But I do sympathize with, yes, you're getting married really fast and that you have to know your husband's financial situation. You have to know. But

That's not something you talk about a week into dating. You're not going to be in the pods like, by the way, this is my credit score. That's fucking weird. Yeah. That's weird. But so I understand it being a weird place because she's like, you weren't honest with me.

Like, when are you supposed to bring that up? I know. I also thought it was weird. Especially talking about that on camera, too. Yeah, like, you don't need your business on blast. Like, for millions of people to see. Hey, by the way, this about me. I didn't even think about that. Do that off camera. Yeah, like, your financial, like, history does not need to be on national television. So true. Amazing point. I thought it was weird for her to be like, you don't have real plates.

As if he was, like, broke and didn't have his life together. Yeah. He's just a man. He bought those plates at Target. He didn't buy fucking fine china. Yeah. He's a man living on his own. I know. And he bought Target plates. She could bring him, like, his past, too, with, like, girls. Yeah.

of like oh like if girl came back like you'd serve her on this plate or like or another thing with like the lost and found that he had oh but he should have just thrown that away no he definitely should have just thrown it away like why are you like she was digging for issues like bringing that up she was she was really digging for issues but i thought it was so strange the plate comment i know because that's just a man thing i feel like a man could be a millionaire

And they still would have... Oh, 100%. Like, crap plates. Like, I don't think that's an indicative of lifestyle. If they're, like, organized, clean. The fuck? Who cares? But I think she's a little bit insane. I'm gonna have to finish, like, the last two episodes. Because I have the weddings and then the reunion. That's all I need to watch. I need to finish the reunion. There's already some crazy things in the reunion. I'm kind of obsessed with this cast. Yeah.

Yeah, they're definitely good. They're good TV. Uh-huh. They're good to watch. And...

How many other, is it always only been, how many couples are there? Four or three? Sometimes there's more. It depends on who goes to the wedding. Yeah. There's only two weddings. I know. Sometimes there's four. Like, it depends on who goes. I've kind of felt gypped in the fact that there was only two weddings, but I mean, they casted the most insane people of all time. So it made sense that none of them found love because they were crazy. I can't remember what that girl's name is, but the girl that like lied about her life in the pods. Oh, yeah.

oh she's on tiktok now yeah she made a tiktok story time i was like she's still not making sense like you are delulu like she's still not making sense i was like let me let me hear out i guess it was a bad edit yeah let me listen i got nowhere nowhere i was like you still are making absolutely no sense like what is your job they had that big fight where uche was like and you're a liar like

You make no sense. Like, kind of being like, you literally are a liar. And she's like, my life makes perfect sense. Like, I am a PhD or like whatever the fuck. Yeah. It's like, yes, Uche sucks right now. You also are wrong. Yeah. And crazy. Yeah. I think justice for Johnny. Yeah. Yeah.

insane i know insane and i also saw so many things i love what people see on tiktok that i didn't notice like random oh in the in the shows like the edits in the show not like edits but just sometimes edits sometimes just like okay the example i'm talking about stacy will sit on the counter and then put her shoes on the counter ew like she'll have her sandals on the counter ew uh

And I'm like, I never saw that. But like, what the fuck? Dude, people nitpick everything. Why are her shoes on the counter? No, it is true. Like, why? Why wouldn't your shoes just be on the floor? Like, why'd you make the conscious effort to put them on the counter? I just thought I love seeing what people notice in shows that I did not see at all. And I thought the shoes on the counter was a hilarious thing.

I'll have to go watch. We'll not go back and watch. I'll have to look, pay attention to that when I keep watching. They only showed it in one thing, but the comments were like, why are her shoes always on the counter? So I'm like, oh my God, did she do it all the time? I don't know. I thought it was very interesting. Another thing that I thought was so fucking funny last week was Will Ferrell DJing at his son's

Super funny. Frat party. Super funny. Dude, imagine like you're in college and not even like Will Ferrell, but just like any celebrity in general and it's parents weekend and your friend rolls up and their dad is just some massive celebrity and he's just DJing. What's crazy though is like

yeah any massive celebrity book would be cool but will ferrell's like i know celebrity to do that the perfect celebrity to do that i could be wrong but i don't think no he definitely is i don't think will ferrell is like disliked by anyone no and like maybe i'm wrong and like i bet i can google like will ferrell scandal but i really don't think anyone dislikes will ferrell like i feel like he's

just funny and universally liked he's just like the perfect like and he's the kind of person that a bunch of frat dudes wouldn't be like oh you know what i mean it's just like what the fuck that's so cool yeah yeah it's just he's the perfect celebrity to do that and the perfect one so like i guess the backstory on it which i had to like go and dig and find the backstory because i'm like what is going on when i first started the video i'm like why he's is he there which i ended up finding out it was parents weekend yeah and his son was literally right next to him and i

And they needed a DJ that, like, knew all the songs that the parents would like. So he was obviously just like, all right, dad, like, you're DJing today. Like, take it away, but make sure you're playing all the hits that the parents will love. And all the parents were just getting, like, absolutely smashed to, like, all the songs getting fucked up. Like, I wish I was in that room. I wish I was in that room. That must have been so fun. Also, how does that kid go about his life just at school? Like, and Will Ferrell's your dad. Like, every girl must be, like...

But I also love that he's just going to college and being a normal, like, and his dad's being like normal by going to parents weekend. That's sick. Yeah, that is sick. That's really, really cool. Cause I feel like they said it's that perfect amount of someone that's so famous, but also someone that's not like, I don't think he's booked in busy 24 seven. Like I feel like his career is kind of. Yeah. He's set for that old. He's fine. It's not like he's.

Like, on tour or, like, doing anything crazy. Yeah. He can just do as he pleases. I hope his son is, like, a good kid and not a douche. Oh, he looks it. He looks just like his dad. Did he? I didn't really see his face. Everyone, like, had glasses on in the video I saw. He looks just like his dad. I'll have to, like, look him up on Instagram because I know I was obsessed with that, too. Yeah. The other big news of the weekend, which we continuously give updates on, is...

the Travis Kelsey Taylor Swift appearance again at SNL and like he was holding her hand like so cute and like was touching her very boyfriend like like very very boyfriend like the way he was touching her and then like the lipstick did you see that what was the she was wearing red lipstick and they're coming out and her lipstick is like smudged like you can tell there was like

red, like it kind of stained. It's like pink. And like in his mustache, it's like pink. Shut up. I did not see that. Yeah, which is like adorable. I'm obsessed. That's not. I love it. I love every second. Who would have ever fucking thought these two people would just come together? It's truly, I think, the perfect move for her because one, it's insane press. Not that she didn't have insane press already. She didn't really need it. But like

Why not be at the height of your fucking career dating the most eligible man in the country? Do you think she wants to get married and have kids? Yeah. Because think about it. What if they break up and then she just has a whole album of music about him? She was just in a six-year relationship. I feel like she's married and have kids is her vibe. Oh my God. Imagine being Taylor Swift's child. That's so crazy. But I love it. I'm obsessed. Yeah. Yeah.

It is pretty fucking insane. So when the Chiefs go to the Super Bowl, this was all rigged. I'm telling you, I think if this is a publicity stunt for anyone, I think it's the NFL. Like, the NFL might be paying her. Dude, sometimes I'm like... I just see what the NFL does. I'm like, you guys are insane. Like...

I don't know how to put it into words, but I want to be in the back end just hearing the meetings, hearing the conversations of how they're promoting things this week, how they're going. I just need to know. Yeah. It's insane. I want to be like the higher ups in the real meetings when they're discussing all this stuff. I mean, I'm convinced it's all a little rigged. You can listen to our football episode and hear about that. But I would literally not be surprised if this was...

If this is the NFL's doing or just them having fun and knowing that they're going to get paparazzi and kind of just being like, we kind of want to go on dates. This will also shake up the world. Fuck it. Let's do it. Or the NFL was like, we need Taylor Swift to make every single female in the United States start watching the NFL. Yeah. You know what I mean? Like.

I don't think they would understand it, though. Yeah, so true. Like, I don't know what they would be trying to get out of that. Well, I mean, like, ticket sales and everything went up, like, stupid. Yeah. But, I don't know. I don't know. I think it could literally just also be them having fun and also just fucking with the whole entire world along the way. I know. I'm just looking, like, longevity for her. Like, are they going to get married? I don't think they're going to get married. I honestly hope they do. Like, I'm obsessed. But I feel like it's just...

fun it's just fun why not hook up with the hot guy all right i wonder if they fucked already yeah no probably not you don't think no because i don't know how much they hang out in private like if she was just in a six-year not that she's had a little relationship in between the six-year relationship in this relationship i don't know i just feel like she's so like comment on instagram do you think taylor and travis have fucked already let me know

I don't know. But yeah, I'm kind of obsessed with them. I think they're so cute. Me too. Sounds are universal. You can understand sounds no matter what language you speak or are learning.

Should we get into our weekend recap? Yeah, we should. We want to do a day each. Yeah. I'm going to start with Thursday because we were just talking about the dibs event. Thursday, we went to our dibs event, makeup brand. Courtney Shields is the owner of it. She lives in Austin, Texas. So they're always doing events here. And they just did a little pop-up at a clothing store. It's called Alice and Olive or Olivia? Olivia. And bro, the fucking clothes in there are so expensive. I hate when like...

Brands do that. It's so dumb. I'm like, I just want to look around, shop around at the clothes, and then I grab something that's like $800. I'm like, okay, I'm going home. $800 is honestly generous. The jackets I was looking at were $1,300. Yeah. Same with the other brand we went to like two weeks, three weeks ago with the lingerie that was like $1,000. Stupid. I just want to know what position in life I'll be in one day to be like, oh, $3,000 jeans? Yeah.

Give me that. I don't even think I would ever even in my life spend three thousand. Like, if I had stupid money where I could just spend it like that, I don't think I would ever spend it that much on clothes. I agree. Like, I love my Amazon dupes. I love my... Like, I... It just... What's the point? Yeah, because especially looking at something and just knowing...

I could get this. It's not even designer. Also, like $3,000, I could go on a vacation for a week or longer, two weeks with $3,000. Or if I'm going to buy something $3,000, it's going to be something like designer I really want, not just something from a store. Craziness. But that was a fun little...

after work little outing see the little texas influencers do the networking do the mingling yeah it's definitely been going to influencer events lately because we bump into so many people at the events and now that we've done it so many like so many more times that i'm

now familiar with people's faces we have more conversations when we first moved here like fucking events were so awkward i hated them yeah they're still awkward they're not a little bit they're not the best yeah when you first walk in they're not the best but once you actually like

settle into the environment and see who's in the room yeah it makes it so much easier yeah 100% yeah first walking in is always you're like who do I talk to because you're like emailing someone you don't know what they look like yeah so someone might just come up to you like I'm the person you've been emailing this whole time and say oh like you don't know who you're saying hi to yeah because you don't know the face behind the Instagram of the yeah you don't know the face behind anyone and then it's like

Like at dibs, there's like a table of makeup. It's like, are we allowed to take this? Yeah. Like just not knowing like...

What are we doing? Like, what's the exact vibe of... Are we taking this? Are we doing... Like, what are we supposed to be doing? Sometimes, guys, when we'll show up to these events, which this happened to me last week. I went by myself. Taylor... I forget where you were. I was busy. Yeah. Dance or something. I can't remember. But I went to an event and I walk into the event. Not a single person that was, like, working the event came up and, like, said anything to me. Crazy. So I'm like...

I just could never in my right mind, if I had a brand and I was hosting an event, not go up to someone that was entering through the doors and be like, hi, thank you for coming. Like making me feel wanted and invited into the event. Because once I got in there, not a single person said hi to me. And I was standing there like not knowing what the fuck to do. So I just left. I was like, fuck this. Like if you're not gonna make me feel welcome, I don't want to be here. Like which the dibs event like...

totally the other way around like everyone was saying hi and everything but like if i'm in there for longer than 10 minutes 15 minutes and no one that's working the event says hi to me i'm leaving yeah because all the little things like there's drinks over there help yourself like just so you know what you can do because what if i just walked up and get a drink and they're like you're not supposed to have that yeah i don't know like i just want to hear from someone like you can go over here like

this is over here i'm so and so or else i'm like am i allowed to touch anything like yes exactly for me like i literally at that event that i'm talking about i literally was sitting in the corner with another girl for like 10 minutes and we both had the same mindset we're like who's working this like who who do we say i do like yeah and then we were both asking questions like oh do we take that

Because they had the goodie bags. And some people were holding goodie bags. Some people weren't. And we're like, do we take that? There was hors d'oeuvres over there or fucking appetizers. And we were like, can we eat those? And then we both looked at each other and we were like, let's fucking leave. And we just left. I was like, this sucks. Awful. Then after the event, you had kickball and you won. I did have kickball. And I was a pitcher again. I don't know why the boys just love putting me at pitcher. So...

There has to be equal amount of girls and boys for the most part, depending on the team, but on the field at the same time. And so they'll put all the boys in the infield and then the girls in the outfield because for the most part,

People aren't really kicking it into the outfield. And the girls on your team can catch. Yeah, they can catch. So they put me at pitcher and then all the boys are on the bases, which the bases is like the hardest part because you have to catch it, throw it to another base. Like that's the shit that like I don't want to be doing. So I was just pitching it and we won 10 to 0.

Hell yeah. I know. Which the game before that when we were in Florida, we lost, which is really sad. But road to the championship. Like, I have really high hopes for our team. I have two teams in the kickball league. So if one of you doesn't win the whole thing, you're going to be disappointed. Like, I feel like, you know, I got two horses in the race. Like, someone better win it all. Wait, speaking of races. I hope the last game is... Oh my God, Mac's race. Dude, guys, speaking of fucking races, Mac has a race.

On the 24th. So literally a week from now. Everyone, everyone, come on out. Dude, literally I'm not even kidding. Please come to this Frenchie race. If you live in Austin, Texas, come to the Frenchie race. I'll put the details on my Instagram story when we are going or like a few days beforehand. But it's literally a Frenchie race at this bar. And I signed Mac up and I got the email yesterday that his spot is RSVP'd and they're going to let me know in a few days like what his time slot is and all this information. And I'm like,

And all of our friends are showing up and supporting Mac. And me and my boyfriend were practicing with him out front the other day. He did so good. So my boyfriend was holding him. And then I'd be like screaming like 10 yards out. I was like, Mackey, Mackey, come here. And he just fucking full sprints at me. I'm like, yes, do this. Do this. You'll do so good. That's so funny. After the event, I was so tired, went home. And then Friday...

Had myself a nice little work day. Got myself a venti pumpkin cream cold brew. I love getting a coffee on Friday like at Starbucks. Truly just 10 out of 10 experience. And then my Fridays are normally me being like exhausted like a fucking zombie. So I told my boyfriend, I'm like, do you want to order in food like...

you know order in some food get something good chill go to bed fucking early so we ordered an italian food it was honestly like not that good i don't know it's because we ordered it like it wasn't like super hot like the pizza wasn't super hot it was whatever it wasn't it wasn't that great we got a pizza and like a salad and cannolis oh cannolis cannolis from the place um

smashed some food and like literally had a chill night in like not not doing much just but the cannolis were really good speaking of cannolis i told my boyfriend yesterday because we're both staying home for thanksgiving i was like thanksgiving like yeah making like thanksgiving dinner together would be great but that's a lot of work for two people so we're like i was like take me to italian restaurant that will make me happy just for thanksgiving take me to an italian restaurant so i'm staying here for that and doing

Hopefully cannolis and Italian food. They were very good. Yeah. My Friday was obviously fucking crazy because I had ACL weekend this weekend. And I did not think that I was going to be starting my Friday that early. I ended up realizing I had to be at a pregame at 1 p.m. So we went to a pregame at a friend's house literally about a mile and a half away from the park, which we ended up walking from the pregame over to the park. This was the day where we walked.

I walked 13 miles that entire day. And by the end of the day, my back was literally like flames. Like my lower back was in so much pain and I

Back to where my back also, I don't know if I told you guys last week, but I started going to the chiropractor to hopefully help with my back issues. I got x-rays and everything and we're just kind of working together to see over the next three months if we can solve my issues. Obviously being a college athlete and playing sports where I was constantly bending over did not help me now. So we're going to see what we can do. But yeah, so I went on a 30 minute fucking hike just to get to over to the park.

And we had our walkie talkies with us. We bought walkie on everything that we got on Amazon was so worth it. So we got a blanket on Amazon. I got a pocket blanket for 10 bucks. We got six walkie talkies and then our guy friends got inflatable guitars and

We walked into that festival or tried to walk into the festival with six walkie talkies. We ended up getting three of them taken away at security because we did not realize it says like in the rules they like pulled it up. They're like you can't bring walkie talkies in here and we're like fuck because mine was just strapped on to my like purse. It wasn't even in my purse. So like when I handed in my purse it was just on the strap. So you can't have this. I was like but why? He's like because it's going to interfere with like the security guards like walkie talkies and we're like

So then some of our friends ended up getting the walkie talkies in because they put them in their bag. Dude, they did not check the bags at all at ACL. Like some of us were walking in with nips in our like in our bags, like the walkie talkies. Like there was just things that we obviously knew we couldn't be bringing in there, which we got away with bringing in. I was like, this is insane. Like the security is so lenient.

Um, so we only had three walkie talkies at that point and luckily we still had them because they worked all weekend just to have And this was the only day friday, which i'm sad that I did this but Where I was so fucked up before even getting in there because when we were walking we passed the liquor store And we're like, oh, let's all stop and grab nips or what other people call them shooters and put them in our bags And so i'm like fuck. Yeah, so I get a

teeny martini espresso martini can the little thing i'm not even kidding guys is like the size of a shot glass and it's 12 an espresso martini can i think the brand is literally called teeny martinis and i drank that thing and by the end of getting to the festival and it was what like four o'clock at this point i was so drunk and that was friday was the only day where i got like really really drunk

It was so hot. It was 90 degrees. I'm like sweating my ass off hair was up I looked like a fucking hot mess took like no photos and then after the festival On friday friday was the only day where I went home and slept in my own bed, which I was happy about because The other two nights I slept at my boyfriend's house But it was kind of calming knowing I was going home and not sleeping somewhere else and then lumineers

We're really good. But because I was so drunk, I don't really remember anyone else. Oh, did you say blondish? No. No. I think I already asked you that. I mean, we got there when they were on, but we went to Yachty. Yeah, I didn't get to go to Yachty. We went to Yachty. So like I said, y'all, I...

don't let me and my boyfriend don't like edm hence why we went alone because all of his friends are huge edm people yeah and all of my friends are big edm people and if you missed last episode shania twain was weekend one which is like genuinely like the only person on the lineup we were like we and i want to see noah khan but it was like we need to see shania twain so when people we knew were like weekend two we were like

Literally no. Like we literally need to go see Shania Twain. It's not a fucking option. So that's why I went weekend one. But yeah, I did...

Yachty instead. Honestly my weekend was so EDM focused because so we went to Blondish on Friday and then we went to Major Lazer and Diplo which that was like a last minute sub in and I'm so happy that Diplo went because it was so fucking good like Diplo this weekend. What? I know we do have Diplo this weekend too. Two weekends in a row with Diplo. See that's my one EDM fix of the year. Yeah but it's a little bit different it's a club. Yeah but

I'm still going to be like, when I went home. But yeah, didn't see Major Lazer. So yeah, Major Lazer was fucking sick. And all the music that they were playing was just like shit you could like sing along to. Like, oh, it was so good. But then, yeah, Saturday. Saturday, I had such a good fucking day Saturday. I didn't know what I was going to do. It was kind of really, really nice kind of waking up and being like, we have the entire day.

To do anything we want. Yeah. What the fuck do we do? And then my boyfriend had the amazing idea to go to this little town. He's like, want to take a mini road trip? How did he know about this town? He had been once. Okay. He was like, do you want to take a little road trip? And I was like,

At first I was like, an hour? And then I was like, oh, fuck it, let's do it. We have literally the entire thing. Hours not long. Not long at all. And halfway there was a Dutch Bros, so we got Dutch Bros. It literally was so fast. Especially in the Texas highways. At least we went to highways the whole time. I was going to say, they're straight shot. It was so easy. But at first I was like, eh, do we want to? But then I'm so glad we went. So it's called Green. G-R-U-E-N-E.

a little outside New Braunfels or like basically in New Braunfels, but like right on the outskirts. So we drive there, get out. I was like, oh my God, I'm obsessed. It was so cute. It was so small. It was like,

literally like two blocks i really don't understand how people live there um that's like their downtown it's like the historic district there's like we went to this restaurant that was like all outside the weather was gorgeous i was wearing my white cowgirl boots i think i got four compliments of people telling me how much they like my boots i'm like they're just white but like people love your boots thank you um went to lunch got a spicy mark it was so good like

10 out of 10 spicy mark. And then the first dance hall in Texas is there. So there's like live music and like people dancing. And it was the cutest, like so many like older couples, like dancing to live music. Oh my God. It was so sweet. Like this older couple literally is walking out. And as they're walking out, they start to play another song that I guess is like their favorite song. And they put their stuff on the floor. They're like, Oh my God, we have to stay. And literally just start like dancing with each other to the song. I was like,

Do you think it was like a lot of locals or like people that also So it was definitely Mix of both we the way we were Judging it were like anyone with a That looks like they bought something because there's a few little like Shopping bags. Yeah, I got a hat really cute

Like anyone with a shopping bag is not from here. Yeah. They just bought a little something. Anyone that doesn't have a shopping bag and like these older couples probably live here because it's literally like 10 minutes from like the center of New Braunfels. So they're just like that's kind of how I felt with the place that I went to for like the staycate like the little getaway houses with the downtown like the locals like stuck out like

so much like you could tell they were just like comfortable with where they are and it's just like i looked like that definitely there was these two little boys i was obsessed with this little boy made me want to just raise a little country family he was like eight wearing like a button down with jeans and like a belt buckle star like he was literally a little fucking cowboy little boy i was obsessed like i was like oh my god i'm i'm i'm really obsessed with this little boy so we're like kind of just watching people dance like hanging out

Went to like this other bar with live music everywhere, which was like so nice. We got ice cream, like had a few drinks. I think that they had like three drinks. We went to like all little stores. Like there's like an antique store and like little like clothing stores. And I got the cutest little like trucker hat and

And we literally just like bopped around like most of the day there. And then by the time we got back, I want to say we got back at 730 and it was dark. And I was like, oh, I want to go to bed. And my boyfriend's like, it's 730. Dude, yeah, I hate that, bro. I'm like, exactly. Time for bed. Like I'm... And I had a friend in town who... I'll get to that. I saw her on...

Sunday, but she was like... They were going out and she was like, where should we go for something casual? And I was like, east side. If you just want to go get a drink. I told her to go to east. She was like, meet us if you want. I was like, oh, maybe go back at 7.30. I was like... Not happening. Nope. I don't blame you, dude. Literally not a chance in hell. I'm going to bed. So just kind of watched movies and... What movie did I watch? Oh, we watched Sex Tape with Cameron Diaz and...

Oh, what the fuck is his name? I don't remember what the guy's name is. But we watched some old... We were in a rom-com mood all weekend and we're watching random little things. It was really funny. Dude, so I was thinking about this over the weekend because of my festival outfits and everything I was wearing. If you end up moving, which I know you kind of want to move out of Texas at some point, do you think you'll stick to the Southern...

Like, I just think if I move, I'm not going to want to wear cowgirl boots, cowgirl hats, like the Western like look somewhere else. I feel like I'll look like I stick out too much. Well, cowgirl boots are like trendy everywhere. Like girls in New York. Not in Boston. I feel like when I went home over the summer, like I like brought my boots with me and I brought a few outfits. I was like, oh, I can definitely wear these. And then like I was like getting ready. I was like, I cannot wear this out. Like New York girlies like in the summer on Instagram wearing like.

boots with like stuff. New York's definitely different. So New York's like fashion. Yeah. Fashion. Yeah. Boston's like I don't know everyone. Every girl's just wearing like jeans. Yeah. So I probably will because it's a big part of my life like country music and stuff like that. Like that's like what I enjoy. Like I like if you moved back to Florida say you moved back to Miami do you think you would still dress like that.

Yeah. Really? Yeah. Like in Miami with my family, like we'd go to rodeos like a bunch. Like it's not like it's not abnormal to me to like sometimes wear like boots and a hat. It's just I was I don't know why I was just thinking about it like over the weekend. I was like, fuck, like I love these cowgirl boots. But like if I move anywhere, I feel like I just can't wear them. And if I move, it'd probably either be back to Florida or Georgia. And like if I move where my sister lives.

100% I'm going cowgirl. Even though it's not cowgirl there, but it's like a small town in Georgia. Yeah. I'll rock this. I will for sure not be moving anywhere more.

more north than probably like South Carolina. That's for sure. So I can see myself, I guess, continuing to. Oh my God. If I lived in like Charleston, I want to go to Charleston so bad. Me too. Ah, I want to go there. Everyone I talked to, I've like recently talked to so many people that are either from there or like been there before. And they say it's just very similar to Boston, Austin, and like the small city sense.

And I just want to go. I want to go too. I've like really been wanting to take a solo trip or just like a little trip like midweek. Like just go for the week somewhere. Charleston though, I feel like I would want to visit during warm weather. You think you'd go there in the winter? I feel like I could maybe not winter, but like right now in the sense of like I could see myself walking down the Charleston streets in like a sweater.

Yeah. You know, Mac just ripped fucking ass, dude. Gross. But anyways, that was my Saturday in my little small town. That's your sign, though. Like, see what's around like an hour outside of where you live. There's so many little towns in Texas that I haven't been to.

Can you smell it? No. Dude, he's looking at me like he knows he fucked up.

We started off the pregame at our friend Dayton's house and we took a bunch of photos and got all cute and stuff. And one thing I will say, taking photos in a doorway or door frame, superior. Like I have never seen such like gorgeous photos like lighting wise in my life. Like every time I'm at his house, I'm going to take pictures in that doorway because they were perfect.

And then RetailMeNot was having an event here in Austin right near the music festival. And they invited me out and they said that I can invite as many people as I wanted. And it was open bar, free food. So I said in like my ACL group chat, I was like, guys, we got an event here. I sent them a link. I was like, just RSVP, put your name down. Let's go. And speaking of events, this event was one of the better events because I walked in there and the two girls that were working the event were

We're like our age. And they come right up to me and go, oh my God, Sam, like freaking out. Like, we're so happy you actually came. And I'm like...

I was like, okay, like see, like I literally said to them, I'm like, I'm so happy you guys came up to me right away because I've been to so many events lately that people don't fucking say shit and it makes me feel so uncomfortable. And then that's when I like invited or I introduced the two girls working to my friends and they're like, oh my God, like so happy you brought all these people. I'm like, I bet like love this. And then while I was at the event, I bumped into so many other people that were at dibs and I was like, see, I just love this now because now I've,

Networked more in the influencer space here in austin like I can just like Have conversations with people like one of the girls that was at the dibs event Had a pint of tequila and she was going into acl and she goes girl I'm not gonna finish this like do you want it? And I was like Yes, I do like give it to me and she gave me like the rest of her pint of tequila. I'm like

I like you. We're going to be friends. So yeah, we hung out at that event for probably like an hour and a half because it was open bar. Their drink of choice, because you know how events will do signature drinks. It was like this mule thing. It was so fucking good. They had like a purple marg and then a mule and we were all getting the mules. They were amazing. But then we ended up leaving because we had to catch this one band called M38 and

Did you see them? Horrible. It was like purely just a guitar playing the whole time. There was no like vocals. So I was just standing there. Oh, we know that was on Sunday. Mountain Joy.

Yes, Mount Joy. I didn't see them either. Well, they were with Noah Khan, but I didn't see them. Yeah. So I don't know who they are, but then everyone like loves them. Yeah. So I was just really most excited to see Noah Khan on Saturday. Did you see him? Yes. I was going to ask you. I didn't know if you saw him or not. I did see him. So before all of that, I knew I needed like...

sit a lot on saturday because one i walked so much to my back fucking hurt so i actually brought the blanket with me on saturday to bring into the festival and everyone was so happy i brought it like the boys the first day were making fun of me they were like oh you don't need that blanket like why would you bring that and then the next day every time we would get to a stage like sam pull out the blanket i'm like you all suck you're fucking making fun of me and now you want it i will say if you're going to a music festival that is in the grass like when you you're

your weekend, you can look up before and after ACL on TikTok. The first weekend, grass plush. You sit in the grass. The second weekend, dirt. Yeah. Like, zero grass, straight dirt, dust. Like, the before and after aerial view of the festival is crazy. So I could see how second weekend you need something to sit on. Because, like, when we would sit, we would sit just like... It wasn't dirty. Yeah. Like, it was just, like, the grass. Yeah. So...

The second day, we had like three blankets. Everyone was like, all right, let's bring fucking blankets. We brought the blankets and we were just setting up. There was probably, honestly, day two, we met up with another group. So there was probably around like 30 of us just all sitting on these blankets. Everyone was just putting an ass cheek on the blanket. Each blanket had like 10 people on it. And we were all just sitting there for a while. Thank fucking goodness we were doing that. And at one point, we were sitting at the...

um on the blankets everyone was just smoking which i don't smoke weed so i wasn't doing that they were just smoking weed like joints yeah just like out in the open like everyone was and so we're

we're sitting there and I was like you know what I really want to fuck with someone right now and I take the like Liv had a walkie talkie and I go Liv give me the walkie talkie because I noticed one of our guy friends had a walkie talkie over there and it was storm and I took the walkie talkie and I'm hiding behind Liv like back crouched and I'm like on the walkie talkie I'm like

I'm like, Storm, Storm, are you there? Are you there? And he, like, grabs the walkie-talkie. He's like, yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, who is this? Who is this? I go, I'm lost. I'm lost. I'm lost. I'm, like, literally, like, three feet away from him. And I'm like, I'm lost. I'm lost. I'm lost. I'm like, will you, like, stand up, please? Stand up right now. Like, wave around. Wave around. Like, so I can find you. And he stands up, starts waving around. And I go, and then I go, take that red guitar. See that red guitar in your hands? Like, wave it around. And he starts waving the guitar around. And he goes, wait, how do you know I'm holding a guitar? Yeah, that's right.

And he keeps waving it. And I go, wave it faster. Wave it faster. I can't find you. Wave it faster. He starts waving it faster. I don't know if you can see what he has. Dude, he's standing up. We're all sitting down. And all of us are just looking up. And I'm like cracking up. And I'm like, okay, start doing it. I go, start jumping up and down. Start jumping up and down. He starts jumping up and down with the fucking guitar. And then I start cracking up. And the mic's on. And he hears it. He goes...

He goes, Sam, what the fuck? Like, fuck you. Like, blah, blah, blah. I'm like, we're all dying laughing. It was like the funniest thing. I think that had to be the highlight of my entire like weekend was just doing that to him because he's just like a very easy person to just like fuck with. And I was like, this was the funniest thing. And then he stops and he looks at me and goes, Sam, like, dude, I was way too high for that. Like, why did you do that to me? And I was like, I'm sorry, but I had to. That was so funny. So after that, we were sitting on the grass for probably like an hour, hour and a half, honestly. Yeah.

And everyone was just like in between of like going to know a con and somebody else who was performing. And I was like, I know for a fact I'm going to know a con. So like going to someone else would be insane. Dude. So we all split up.

And there was a group of, honestly, what, like six of us that went? So everyone else stayed together and we split up. So we split the walkie-talkies. Like we took one walkie-talkie, they took the other walkie-talkie, and we went over to NOAA Con. We had like a good amount of time before NOAA Con went on stage. They went to Tove Lo. No, that doesn't sound familiar. Can't go homer.

again. Oh, maybe. Oh, probably. Or Bob Moses. No, it was Bob Moses. Bob Moses. Oh. So we went to the bathroom. We got drinks and then we still had more time. So we ended up going over to the stage. By the time we got to that fucking stage, we were like 100%.

hundreds of yards away. I fucking bet. Hundreds of yards away. I got there 30 minutes early. Dude. So, and we were, we still had time. Like, we were still like, quote, unquote, early. And he was on the smallest fucking stage. Literally, like, the tiniest stage. And like, I knew that, like, going into that because you warned me and like, I knew that. But I think Saturday for us, like, was the busiest day because people, like, have day passes. Like, Saturday was fucking nuts. Like, it was insane. And we're standing there and,

And he starts to go on. He starts to perform. It's still light out, still daytime. The little screens for him are not tall enough where I can like see it. I'm five, five. Like I'm an average height and I still can't see that. Like I'm like on my tippy toes trying to like look around to see him on the thing. And then he starts singing. We can't hear it. The speakers are facing the stage, not facing the crowd. No, no.

The speakers go out. If you're that far away, you can't hear it. The speakers don't go that far. No. So there's the speakers that are like in the middle of the crowd. They're facing the stage. They have speakers that are facing out or else no one... On the stage though. But I'm saying the speakers of every single stage at these festivals...

do not go very far. They don't project outward very far at all because then you wouldn't be able to hear, like, it can't interfere with other people playing. So, like, you have to get really within a certain distance to hear it. And they go back far. Every single place I'd go, I'd be like, we're going to stay toward the back. And we'd get as close as we could to hear it. Literally be like, we could hear it here. We're good. We thought we were in the back, but we'd turn around.

That shit was going on for miles of people. But you can't hear... Like, the speakers don't go that far. They literally, like... I think for the smaller stages, yes. But the American Express stage, we'd be so fucking far back. I could hear that for miles. Yeah, but it, like... It's not as loud as you think it would be. Like, Hozier was not that loud.

In terms of, like, if you walk while they're playing, like, you have to, like... Okay, I can hear it here. Yeah. Like, you can't be, like, super far and, like, be immersed in it. Yeah. Noah Khan was on such a fucking tiny stage, but he was so good. Dude, it was horrible. Like, I was so disappointed. Not in him as a person, as a performer, but I was just disappointed in, like, the overall experience of it. I had to literally leave because...

I could hear my thoughts in my brain. That's how quiet it was. Like people were like talking behind me and I could like hear them talking. Not even the music. That's literally so upsetting. I mean, I dedicated my entire Saturday to getting um, like I was right in front of that kind of middle, like where the middle thing is that has like the control, like the tech thing in the middle. I was like right in front of that.

Like I dedicated my whole entire day to getting close to the stage. Yeah. Which I mean, I was a little bit too fucked up to even fucking really care. Like I, I cared, but I was too fucked up where I was like,

gonna be mad about it or try to get closer so I was like alright just on to the next so then we ended up just leaving trying to find everyone which we couldn't find anyone because they were still at fucking Bob Moses because we left the performance early so we were like alright what do we do now and so we just went over to the American Express stage and just went to um Foo Fighters and we put the blanket down and we ended up finding Storm too again with the walkie talkies because he had to leave he literally left the festival and came back in and we found him with the

walkie talkies so the bunch of us we were just all hanging out and then once the Foo Fighters went on everyone else in the group was trying to find us so then we had Liv get on like one of our guy friends shoulders waving around the guitar like because everyone else that had big groups had like those big flags with like the aliens sticking on it or whatever you could find your friends easily but we didn't have that so we we would have to put people on each other's shoulders and then wave the the floated guitar up in the air and

and do it that way. So then we ended up finding everyone and we were all at the Foo Fighters and we had the guitars and it was just like we were all like...

like, fucking using guitars and acting like we were, like, a band. It was just so much fun. And then at the end of the night, it was just another struggle to get an Uber, walked for, like, two miles, and then got home, slept at my boyfriend's house, and each night at my boyfriend's house, we ended up getting Uber Eats at, like, midnight each night. What'd you get? Hawaiian Bros because they were doing buy one, get one. Never had that. Because I was like, bro, I have spent so much money this weekend. I do not care to spend...

like 50 on uber eats i'm like see that it's buy one get one let's get it so we got hawaiian bros and mowed down on that and then went to bed but saturday definitely was a fucking long day sunday was i had a very wholesome weekend if you couldn't tell but sunday so one of my like childhood best friends like my my neighbor growing up my next door neighbor from home

all growing up was in town which is so random like her boyfriend had a work thing here so she happened to be in town for the weekend and I was like oh my god so worked out that at this weekend like I like actually don't really have any plans like perfect so met up with her haven't seen her in so long and we got brunch at Wax Myrtles didn't even know Wax Myrtles here in Austin did brunch um but they do and it was good got a Bloody Mary because I keep saying I want to get one and really try one and it was phenomenal best one I've ever like tried

From somewhere because I've taken sips of other people's It was so good So sat at Wax Myrtle's like outside The weather was beautiful Like just kind of like impeccable vibes For like outdoor seating like 65 degrees Impeccable

And then like they were like oh we don't really have plans What should we do like what do people do here in Austin That's like outdoors And I'm like I would tell you to go to the park or like the trails But you can't do that I'm like so There's a festival going on I was like have you ever played pickleball I'm like that's what people do here They play pickleball So we went to the pickleball courts in my boyfriend's apartment Kind of showed them

How to play because they didn't really have plans. So we're like, fuck it. Let's just fucking play pickleball. Probably played for maybe like over an hour because it was so nice outside. You really can't play pickleball though more than like an hour and a half. Well, yeah, I couldn't get playing. Like I just need like breaks. Yeah. Like if we can sit. Yeah, if you can take breaks. If you can like sit for like 15, 20 minutes, hang out, start again, you know, make it like a day activity. But in a row.

Like, I'm going to need to take a break. So then we kind of chilled. And then I was at my boyfriend's and the football was on and the Rams game is on. He's a Rams fan. I was like, I'll stay here and watch the game.

And then you got to take my ass home because I got shit to do. So watch football. I didn't really watch football. I was just like on my phone. And then he took me back home and then I was cleaning and getting just shit done for the week. And then watching half watching Sunday night football, half cleaning, half making us food because I enjoy Sunday night football. So I was like, you want to

Like, he was just like, I'll drop you off. I was like, you want to watch football here? I was like, I like watching football, but I'm not going to watch football by myself. So I'm like, you can put it on. Oh. And then I tried to, like, do fucking...

chores dude i i know this is fucking random but have you seen how the astros and the texas like the two baseball teams here in texas are right now playing each other in postseason oh bro at lift i walk up from the the power lifting section and everyone's looking at the tvs yeah it looked like everyone was like in a trance by aliens i literally walk up and everyone is like

I was like, what the fuck are you guys looking at? Well, they keep inviting me to each game. Each game that there's been, the day before. I was very surprised by this, guys, but last week, I got an email from MLB that they wanted to invite me out to one of the games, and I said no because it's in Houston, which is like two and a half hours away, and they

They gave me like a six hours heads up notice. That's an all day event. Two and a half hours away. And then a long ass baseball game. Yeah. Half hours home. That's your whole day. So they keep each day. Keep inviting me. And they invited me to the game yesterday. And I said no. Because one I was fucking hung over. Shit. But I have a feeling they're probably going to invite me again to game four. Because that's the next one that's going to be home. And that's on like Friday or something or Sunday. I can't fucking remember. But I was like. And they want to give me four tickets this time. I'm like.

Double date. I fucking love a baseball game. I'm like double date. And the guy on the Astros is literally the hottest person alive. So anything to see my boo thing. I love him. I love him. Yeah that was literally all I did with my Sunday was brunch, pickleball and then you know as a housewife cleaning.

Yeah, I'm so disappointed that my favorite day was on Sunday because I was so down bad on Monday because of it, which I did not think that I was going to be as crazy as I was on Sunday. But it's like, who in their right mind was like, let's put Odessa Sunday night. Like, let's put Odessa on the headlines for Sunday night. Like, we all know everyone's going to

probably not go like no everyone and their mother went like we all got so fucked up and the next morning i'm like down bad it's monday and i'm like what the fuck but sunday we started at brunch as well um we knew like we kind of want to do something each day different for pregame so the first day we went to a friend's house pregame next time we went to like that event and then we were like we want to do brunch one day so we went to the well which was downtown and

From there, it was not even a mile walk. After brunch, we walked. I got an espresso martini and Aperol Spritz. I got an Aperol Spritz. My dumb ass forgot espresso martinis were a thing. I was like, let me get an Aperol Spritz and a coffee. One of my friends stopped me and was like, Sam, just get an espresso martini. I'm like, fuck, it's too late. The next drink I got was the espresso martini. By the time we even got into the festival, it was 4 o'clock.

I was not doing well. I was so tired, like, yawning like no other. Sunday was a fucking... Like, I could not get myself to, like, be alive. Which is crazy because Sunday was a push for me at ACL and I did not even... Did not drink. Yeah. Didn't party. Didn't pregame. Didn't do anything. And Sunday was like...

But it took a turn for events very quickly because I got there. We were sitting down. We were watching M38, which was the fucking band that was like just the guitars, no speaking involved. And me and Dayton looked at each other at the end of it. We were like, why do I feel like we just listened to the same track for the last 45 minutes? Because that's all it felt like it was. And I was like, dude, Sam, that was horrible. But...

I ended up just started drinking those bright wine, canned wines. Dangerous. And I was like... Canned wine will put you on your ass. Dude, I was like, I need something to like loosen me up and get me a little bit drunk because this is gonna be a long ass day. It'll do a little more than loosen you up. I know. So I had two of those. Yeah. And I was...

pretty fucked like i was fucked up and this was also a day where i knew i was gonna do a little bit of shroomy shrooms so by that point we went over to hosier which we took our sweet ass time getting into the festival like like i said we literally the first place we went to is four o'clock so then hosier at that point was at like six so from 6 p.m all the way until the end of the festival like

we were go go go the amount of headliners we were jumping from we went to hosier which like take me to church like that whole fucking thing was amazing he sounded like it was like an aux cord plugged in he sounded so good no which i'm so glad you didn't get to hear noah khan because noah khan was also amazing i'm also you didn't go to nile horn which no you didn't go none of us were like no i don't literally don't know any of his new music like could not tell you obviously i liked one direction i said on last podcast

Dude, it was fucking amazing. Like, I have such a newfound love for his music. He was fucking killer. Hozier, if you have a chance to see Hozier live, I'm obsessed with him now. I'm obsessed with this man. He's the coolest person I've ever seen. Such a fucking good singer. I'm obsessed. I'm obsessed. Like, some people just on stage, they fucking have it. He was the reason I lost my voice. They have the, like...

You just kind of get it. You're like, that's why you're famous. Yeah. Because you fucking... You got it. Like, you know what you're doing and you fucking have that shit. Every single one of us were just like singing to every... I feel like chill thinking about it. Dude, we were like...

Screaming our heads off singing every single song just like everyone had their arms around each other and we're like Swaying back and forth like someone give him like a gay flag At the end. I don't remember. Okay. No, I I like it literally could almost make me cry like oh my god It was like so emotional. I'm also probably going into my luteal phase. So i'm like i'm fucking emotional So like hosier like take me to church is about

being gay in the church and them like not accepting you that's what that song is about if you listen to the words so like while he's singing that song and closing out with that song he goes down like grabs like the flag from someone and like drapes it over the mic and is like singing and it was like it was so powerful like it was so I was like this is

So like emotional. And then there were so many like gay couples around us. Yeah. Just like having this like moment. I was like, oh my God, this is like too much. I was like, I'm I can't like it was so fucking powerful. I fucking love Hozier. No, I don't see. I don't know if he did that weekend too. Maybe he did, but I didn't see it was part of the festival that he always does or if someone like happens.

Had a flag. Someone had it so they gave it to him. Yeah. But I've seen, I think it might be a common thing that people know to bring it. But I think someone like has to bring it. Yeah. If that makes sense. Yeah. I have no idea. But like we literally all were like, it was like the most lovey dovey environment I have ever been in with like my friends. Just like we were all like, everyone just kept being like, I love everyone.

everyone like we all love each other like it was just so fun singing and dancing and then from there that's when we went from the vibes of like hosier to all right we're going to see labrith and then odeza and then we went to mumford and sons after that like at the end but guys i'm not even kidding from labrith to odeza like it's all like a massive blur to me because i was just in such like a different world

If you're getting the hint, if you're getting the vibe, like I was in a- If you're getting the hint, she was gone. I was fucking gone. And like everyone was just like, it was positive vibes all around. Like every, like every song, like we all, like I knew the names to all the songs, but a lot of them I didn't know. Odessa? No, Labyrinth. Did you like Labyrinth? Dude, so fucking good. It was the drugs. No.

No. No, like he sucked for real. No. Don't say that, dude. It was so good. No, he sucked for real. No, he sucked for real, for real. Like, I see how like it, like, I love Labyrinth. Okay, like I knew all the words to the songs. I knew all the words to the songs. Like, I was excited. I like Labyrinth. I'm literally sitting there. I'm like, he's like sucking ass for real. Like, first of all, he didn't come out. He was like a figure in the back, like a shadow.

For like 20 minutes. I didn't even look at the stage once. I was like. I was just looking at all my friends dancing around like, yeah. I was like, can you come out, sir? Like, we're at a concert to see you, buddy. Like for 15 minutes, like he was just kind of like lurking in the shadows. I'm like, sing along.

a little like come on out and i was like bro this like sucks major ass so then we got ice cream but i i heard it the whole time to be fair i did not realize i was there until the next morning looking at my videos see like a lot of my videos were like oh was this odeza or was this labyrinth like where am i so labyrinth like like i said makes amazing music so the music is good like the music is always gonna hit because labyrinth will hit but like the performance

Like, he was real ass, which was, like, really upsetting to me because I was really excited for him. Yeah. And he did not give what he needed to give. Well, you know what? The vibes were high. I was with good friends, good people. Yeah. So we were, like, a bunch of the girls were on, like, the guy's shoulders. We were all just, like, having a good fucking time, like, screaming our heads off. Yeah. And from there, that moment on, like, once he finished...

It was a mosh pit running to Odessa. Because everyone that's in that vibe also wants to see Odessa. They're not going to go to fucking Mumford's and Sons. We all just sprinted. So we're all... It's like a...

human centipede of like all of us like everyone's locked arms and the person in the front of the line is holding up the pink guitar and we're just following the pink guitar we're following the pink guitar we're all screaming follow the pink guitar even though we're all locked arms we're like follow the pink guitar just like follow it and we ended up all getting like a really good spot for Odessa we were like pretty fucking close for it close as in like the closest we got for all the songs that we or all the stages we went to

And right when he was going on, that's when the sun finally set. It was dark. Like the late, like everything. Dude, I'm going to sound like a fucking crazy person. But like it was so good. And now like I'm on like a great level.

Like their music from that day, everyone from Sunday, like I'm going to listen to all their music on repeat. It was so good. Yeah. Sunday was Sunday was one of my favorite days when I went like Sunday was like I left Sunday and I was like fucking impeccable music. Like it was truly just great music. But except for like Labyrinth and I didn't see it. I saw Mumford and Sons. But yeah, yeah. I felt that running the running vibe was my Saturday. Everyone at Noah Khan.

Spolting to Shania Twain. Like, it was like, go, go, go. Like, everyone was like, like, fucking sprinting. Like, so stressful. Being like, go, go. I was like... Because if you lose someone in that crowd, like, you're fucked. Literally, no. It was like, thank you. And I was like, get out. Like...

Like we start running now. And then like I was like we can stand by survival of the fittest. No it truly is. It's like if you get trampled on the floor you get trampled leaving your ass. We're going to it. And yet throughout that entire day too because I was so fucked up I disabled my phone like 20 fucking times. Oh yeah. So this is a part of my Sunday night where I thought Sam was dead. Yeah. So I'm expecting her to come home because like

It's Sunday night. Sam is big. I'm sleeping in my bed. I'm just expecting her to come home. But I just want to know what I should lock. Because if she wasn't coming home, I'll deadbolt everything. Duh. But if she was, making sure it's open. So I'm texting her. I'm like, hey, are you coming home? And it doesn't deliver. And I'm like, I'm going to check your location. I'm like, it's too late for her to be at the festival. And our friends that were with you

their location is like home done like we're not home but like not at the parking and yours is like at the park and it's like from 8 p.m and i'm like oh my god she died i'm like she got kidnapped in an uber that's it so when i text your boyfriend i'm like is sam with you like where's home like and then it doesn't deliver to him either and i'm like oh they both got kidnapped in an uber that's so great neither of their phones are literally on like they're literally rainy street killer like

gone I was like okay like I was like honestly a little bit panicking because I was like okay but then I text like our friend Liv I was like are you with Sam yeah she was the only sober coherent one and she was like I literally just split up with her like she was like just here um but I didn't know like everyone's like sobriety level like did she mean just like an hour ago

go you know like oh she was just here like at 6 p.m and now it's 10 or does she mean like just like just so it's like oh yeah we our group did a really good job and everyone stayed together like not not a single person wandered off from somebody that's good i'm surprised you didn't yeah i know me too which means so me and my boyfriend had air tags with each other and i never actually really had to use them that's good because i like stayed with him so when she texted me like yeah she just left me i'm like

still could mean she left and got murdered in a ditch so that's concerning and then like an hour later your boyfriend texts me back like i have her her phone's dead like yeah and i was like okay so she's not coming home because it was just like getting a little i was like so she's not coming home i don't think so i was like took my potty put in his crate but i was like what the fuck happened to this girl yeah yeah i like really was like do i need to like

Go search for her. Like I was like get it like just like someone's phone like not like being in a big group festival and then it's like someone's unreachable. Especially both of you. Yeah. Well like red alert. Yeah dude. Like where the fuck. Like I was like like so I was like just like being in a festival like there's alcohol there's like drugs like and both of your phones are like dead.

I was like, I hope people are not like fucking literally in the lake. Yeah. Like when, which, okay. So my boyfriend did an amazing job at taking care of me that night because he didn't really drink as he had worked the next morning. He has a big boy job, like had to go to work. So he didn't really get that, that fucked up. He went to work on Monday.

He works from home. Oh, okay. Because, well, he has friends in town, so he had to stay home. No, I just remember, like, because you were there. I'm like, were you there with Adam? Yeah, no, so he had, like, his first, like, meeting at 9 a.m. So, like, he had to be up and functioning. So, I got so fucked up, but, like, he took care of me so well, like,

And I just remember being like in the crowd like dancing around like whatever and like my purse just kept like falling to the ground. Phone falling to the ground. He just kept picking everything up for me. And like he was probably like Sam like this bitch is so drunk like what the fuck. But like he did a very good job at like I could tell like he was just like all right like whatever.

Eyes on you. Like, you're going to do something stupid. And he ended up... He was wearing one of my fanny packs. He ended up taking my phone for me. Putting it in my... Because I... At like... I would say maybe like 7 p.m. My phone said...

Disabled for 59 minutes And I showed it to him and he goes give me that He took my phone and like put it in his fanny pack And then while it was obviously on do not Or on disabled It ended up dying and then I didn't realize if your phone is on Like disabled For whatever minutes and then your phone dies If you charge your phone

It will resume back at that minute of when it was like, yes, dude, I opened up my phone like after I plugged it into like my portable charger and it said still disabled for another like 39 minutes. I was like, that's so dumb. I was like, what the fuck? Like, no, don't do that. But yeah, he did an amazing job. He was we had to walk, dude, all the way down.

From Zilker Park walked to God, what the fuck is that bridge called? The bridge that you can walk over. Do you know what that bridge is called? The pedestrian bridge? Yeah, the pedestrian. So we walked all over to that and got an Uber there. And we were sitting there. It was freezing that night. It went from like being highs of 90s all the way down to like 45 degrees at night. And I was so cold wearing like my little festival outfit. But yeah, we ended up getting home good.

So after all that, are you ready for the portion of the episode? Yeah, portion of the episode. The little take, something for you guys to take away that wasn't just us talking about being just stupid. Yeah, literally. So after our weekends, we like to have a good time. And I just want to preface this with how to be good the next day, like romanticize your morning. This is not going to work if you're getting like obliterated, obliterated, obliterated, obliterated. Yes. This is like going to work.

for average okay level of drinks like if you're throwing up and like if you're like blackout central like we don't i we don't do that you're down bad like two weekends ago i got like mad fucking blacked out if i talked about on the podcast like this was not occurring and that was a fuck up like this is for an average night like i have the drunk guys but i'm not like

Uncoherent. You need, this is like, you're okay. So I just want to preface this by like, you cannot be getting obliterated to the point where you're literally dead. And for me to have a successful next day after drinking, I really prioritize now my going to bed, my when I get back. Me too. Because I need it to go my way.

One, got to hydrate. If you get to the point where you like set up a whole like electrolyte packet for yourself, amazing. But at the very least, you need to drink fucking water. At the very least, you need to drink some water, cup of it, have a water bottle in your room already, have like the electrolyte packet. But you need to drink water. And my newest thing for the last like probably two months it has been is showering when I get back. Impeccable. Impeccable. And then in the shower, like...

taking my makeup off and washing my face like five times like taking off my makeup with like a makeup bomb and then micellar water and then face wash like getting every single ounce of makeup off my fucking face and taking a shower not wash my hair i'm not psycho but like rinsing off and getting every ounce of makeup off makes you wake up so much better yeah so much better but that's like a new like

I think I want to say, like, last two months has been getting back and I make sure to take a shower. Yeah, what I like to do is while I'm getting ready, I'll drink electrolytes. So I'm, like, huge on the fucking electrolytes. Oh, I always do when I get ready, yeah. So, like, while I'm getting ready, I'm drinking one of those. And then by the time I'm done getting ready, it's gone.

But then i'll also fill up my water bottle again with water and more electrolytes and I put it next to my bed with some Tylenol and then when I get back at night Like I have my electrolytes on my nightstand with like my tylenol I take the tylenol just to get ahead of the game because I get fucking headaches hungover headaches like so badly so i'm on top of staying hydrated before even going out even if i'm like

Like, I'll do this even if it's just, like, a girl's night and I'm having, like, two drinks. Like, I still do this routine. Like, no matter if I know I'm just having, like, a few drinks or if I know I'm going, like, balls to the wall. So that is something, like, in my routine that is every single time. Before ACL last weekend or two weekends ago, what I would do, like, if I know I'm going to have just, like, strenuous, even though I wasn't even really drinking a lot, it was just going to be a lot on my body. I made the most nutrient-packed drink I could have ever made. I did everything.

an element packet so electrolytes i did a scoop of ag1 formerly known as athletic greens because i didn't know like athletic greens i which i think is why they call it ag1 now it's like not really greens powder it's a multivitamin like they're like kind of don't advertise it as like green like it's only daily serving of greens it's like multivitamin powder so i

Knowing that, I just think it's interesting. But anyways, and I just have it because they sent it to me, so I'm going to fucking use it. So I did an electrolyte packet, a scoop of fucking AG1, then fill it up with water, and then I did two dropfuls of chlorophyll and a lemon. When I tell you, I was like, every single nutrient on planet fucking Earth is in this cup. You're like, I am so fucking healthy. I'm so healthy. Every nutrient of all time that I could ever think of is literally in this glass. Chug it all. Big mason jar full of water. And if I know I'm having a down bad day, I put every single supplement I fucking own into a cup. Yeah.

So, I know you say you do the showers at night now. I don't really do that. I just fucking wash my face like a crazy person. But one thing that I do is we, or at least I personally used to always have my Sundays be my like cleaning day. No.

Like Sundays, sometimes I'm too hungover to do that. Like I do all of my laundry and I clean everything on Fridays. So that way going into the weekend, knowing I'm going to be hungover, I'm going to be tired. I'm not going to want to do it. I make sure Fridays are the days where like,

My entire bedroom, bathroom is spotless clean because the next morning, that's not on my list of things that I want to be doing. Yeah, I need to start doing that. I think Friday, I'm trying to get into the hang of what day is my best...

cleaning day um it just feels so good waking up and like but sometimes you're in a clean time so that's what i'm like but laundry like you just like throw it in like yeah but like all the other cleaning like laundry yeah laundry's easy you just throw it in but like and i like when we do laundry on separate days yeah we can like have laundry on some days but that's why i'm saying like monday through friday isn't enough days for me i need like

An extra day. I need like eight days a week. I need like one more. Seven days is not cutting it. If we can figure that out as a society, that'd be great. I just like don't know what day I want to fucking clean on. Like last week I cleaned on Sunday. But maybe I'll try Fridays because I don't really like doing much Friday. Like.

Yeah, I usually will do it while I'm like getting ready to. So I'll go to the gym because obviously I want to make sure I have all of my dirty clothes like that are going to get washed. So I'll go to the gym and then after the gym, while I'm like getting ready or like starting to get ready by like blow drying my hair and stuff, that's when I do like my laundry and I let that all go on and then I'm

doing my stuff but then also when I'm in my bathroom putting my makeup on and everything I'm also like kind of like putzing around like cleaning things like while I'm doing it just kind of like multitasking just one because my age she is fucking nuts and like I can't sit down and do one thing at once like I'm just doing a billion things yeah so like I'm cleaning and getting ready at the same time yeah it all depends on like sometimes my Fridays for work are are like empty because it's Friday and sometimes it's the end of the week and there's a lot to get done and I have like a meeting till 6 p.m. and that really crushes the Friday vibes but I

My work tries not to do that. Like, if my boss schedules a meeting and it, like, ends at 5, she's like, I'm literally so fucking sorry to put a meeting, like, on your Friday afternoon. Like, I think everyone I work with is kind of on the vibe that, like, you do not make a meeting with me on Friday unless you need to speak to me. Yeah. Like, it's kind of like, I'm so sorry I scheduled a Friday meeting. Like, it's like I'm kind of off Fridays, but sometimes they're fucking packed. So, yeah, figuring that out. But anyways, um...

The clean space is really important. This past weekend, my main thing was I didn't want to let it get messy because I get ready and I'm a tornado. I will destroy everything in sight to pick out an outfit. But if I try my best not to do that, like really, really, really try to not mess up everything trying to pick a pair of fucking jeans, waking up is so much better. Yeah. So much better. Like because...

You just don't want to, especially with being hungover, like, you get so in your head of, like, fuck, like, I'm not being productive today when, like, you have, like, a whole thing of to-do lists. Why don't you just set yourself up for success knowing that Sunday, hey, I shouldn't have a massive to-do list? Yeah. So, like, I like to get a lot of that shit done on Friday. Yeah. Because, well, everyone's going out, days are different, but for the most part, I prefer going out on Saturdays, I've realized. Yeah.

But I'll still do everything on Friday. I prefer going out Saturday too. So my biggest thing when I wake up after a night out is like skincare to the max. I obviously do my normal skincare routine. Ice roller. Ice roller feels so good on your face to put ice on your face. There's nothing like an ice roller. The one I use is on Amazon. It's like literally $9.

Ice on your face feels amazing. Face mask. Love a face mask after I drink. It just seems... I like doing one once a week anyway, so...

I like lining it up. Sometimes I do it while I'm getting ready, like in the getting ready process. I'm like, I want to look fucking snatched, like face mask, do the whole thing. Sometimes I just do it twice a weekend in the morning and before because I just feel like anything to get the fucking shit out of my face. Yeah. Which luckily now the weather's cooling off that I feel less disgusting when I get home because it's not like you sweat your dick off being outside. So it'll be nice that I don't feel like I sweat.

like crazy going out and I feel a little cleaner, but I love just like hella skincare. Yeah, it is nice. Mine's been my hair care. Like I'll do a hair mask when I'm just like kind of doing things and let that sit in my hair. I have a bunch of leave-in conditioner hydrating hair mask in right now. Yeah. And then...

Obviously, like, which this is something that I need to fucking figure out with. I still need to get a comforter for my bed. But like making your bed, doing all that, like that morning, Sunday morning, I don't know what it is. Like, I'm just on my game, like in the morning with my like, I take advantage of the fact that I'm awake. I got to get shit done in the morning. And then by the end of the day, I kind of crash on Sundays. So like making my bed.

doing all the extra pickup like i'll do that as soon as i wake up and don't fucking wait around with like eating food and like getting just like nutrients into your body oh yeah eat fucking breakfast yeah like breakfast don't fucking hold off with that shit like eat breakfast and like go about your day even if you don't feel the fucking best and maybe you feel a little bit nauseous like

Eat something that's going to satisfy you and your needs in that moment, depending on how your fucking stomach's feeling. But make sure you eat. And eat something good. Because it's going to make your anxiety worse if you don't. So much worse. And don't have a coffee on an empty stomach. Don't have coffee on an empty stomach. Take some type of calming pill, ashwagandha. Take something if you have anxiety. Take something to help you with that. And eat something good. Like if you postmated...

or uber eats like taco bell at night like i do don't like eat your leftover taco bell for breakfast no like make eggs like something easy like my go-to is just like eggs and toast impeccable hangover combo nutrients protein carb a coffee maybe again athletic greens and element um i literally like make i'm always making like me and my boyfriend breakfast like

if he's here because i want to get up because i wake up hangry so i'm like i need breakfast and i like make eggs and i'm like i made you electrolytes and he's like what the fuck is this it's like dark green i'm like drink it it's good for you like it'll make you feel better um but getting in good breakfast is so key because i'm also sometimes i wake up hangry and sometimes if i drink i could literally not eat like i'm like don't need food but once i eat i get

it's like breaking the seal like in your stomach once i eat i get hungry but you i'm like you need regular meals when i'm hungover all i want is food like my like appetite is massive yeah mine is literally sometimes massive from the gecko kind of depends how much i ate the day before um but if it's not and i'm like oh my god i haven't eaten in his 12 the second i take that first bite of food

I can't stop. Like I'm ravenous. Like nothing fills me. Like I could eat the most protein, like healthy, amazing meal. I just want snacks. Yeah. More snacks. I also like sticking to the routine of like,

Going to the grocery store on Sundays, but also getting outside and getting fresh air. Fresh air, yeah. Because the fresh air thing, me and my boyfriend have been doing this a lot lately, which we didn't do that this weekend because obviously it was a fucking festival, so it's a little bit different. But we'll go on a hot girl walk throughout Lady Bird downtown, and then we're already downtown, so then we'll go to Trader Joe's, get our groceries, and then kind of chill for the rest of the day. But as long as I can get the groceries and getting fresh air out of the way, I'm good.

I'm good to rot for the rest of the day. Yeah. I've been loving Instacart. Instacart, literally fucking everything because the grocery store just isn't fitting in my schedule these days. It's not something that I want to fucking go do. Might have to make a midweek trip like today or tomorrow. But fucking love Instacart. So just like place that Instacart order on like a Sunday. My favorite. My absolute fucking favorite.

love it it's the best yeah it's also because i don't want to go to heb and heb is the closest ones to us dude heb sucks all the texas people listening to this right now that are probably gonna like try to cancel us for that but like no it's a heb literally is the worst literally the worst and then i don't want to drive all the way to a trader joe's like it's just like not like like i need like so much time to literally do

almost nothing on Sundays. Something I also really like to do on the weekend is like getting some form of movement in. So like the other day before ACL, like I said, I wasn't really hungover. I wasn't really drinking, but just kind of like still that just like tiredness of like, ugh, like was out late, like need to get something done. Movement just makes me feel better mentally and gets me rejuvenated

ready to go like it brings me so much energy like moving will give you so much more energy than a coffee so i literally it was the most gorgeous weather i put a yoga mat on my balcony and just looked up on youtube like 30 minute um pilates flow it wasn't fucking hard it wasn't

like sweaty it wasn't like oh my god i just did the hardest workout ever but it got like blood flowing through my body and like i was in the fresh air got a little like stretch i was like oh my god i feel so much better yeah like just getting like because i don't want to go to the gym because i just don't want to just don't do that like i just don't want to go to the gym just gym on the weekends i've realized socks sucks don't want to go to the gym um

And sometimes I don't want to go like it was literally the perfect thing I was like, I literally love this like waking up and just getting like your blood flowing I was like one I feel so fucking healthy. Yeah, um, but and it was easy like it was literally easy and since the weather is nice Just being on my balcony and like the wind I was like, this is literally reviving me and making me feel so good So I love that like I think i'm gonna do that more on the weekend is just like Because I used to do at home workouts all the time in covid duh, and I feel like I

kind of forgot that it like still made me feel good to just look up. Like you could look up a 10 minute one, a five minute one, but it's just like, okay,

like my blood flowing in my body if like you don't want to go on a walk or go to the gym. And another like kind of 180 on this whole thing with the gym too is depending on what you're doing like for instance with me like this past weekend I was on my fucking feet all weekend. Right. Like don't feel the pressure of like oh I feel like more bad about myself if I didn't go to the gym like you don't need to go to the gym on the weekend. It's more about just getting the fresh air moving your body a little bit but like

Don't put the pressure of like in the toxic mindset of like I need to go to the gym because I was off routine, off schedule. Go to the gym knowing or just moving your body. Like when I say I'm going on a walk, like I'm going on a walk for a mile. Like that's all I'm doing. It's more so to get the endorphins and give you natural energy than like burn calories or...

But even like if you want to sweat, if you want a sauna, like something that just makes you feel good and like you're actually a productive member of society. Yeah. Like you're just rotting your life away. Like it really does feel so good to do something. Even like I said, I played pickleball. Like it's so good to go to brunch and then play pickleball for an hour. Like just...

makes you feel like you're actually fucking doing something with your life i've been loving brunch on sundays i love brunch it's so nice we used to never go to breakfast yeah oh my god i'm just that's brunch is so nice so nice but um another thing too is fuck oh my god my brain my brain is mush right now oh okay well i was gonna say like go get a coffee like i make it at home sometimes if i spend a lot of money on the weekend and i'm like be good but in my ideal world let's go get a coffee

Go get a coffee. Go get a great coffee. My recommendation for the best coffee I've ever had in my entire life was the pumpkin caramel brulee from Dutch Bros. And I got it all sugar free. But with the soft top. People are going to be like, why sugar free? Because I'm trying not to get a 600 calorie coffee. Like, let's be real. With the soft top. I fucking hate when people say that. With the soft top, with all the drizzles that come on top. Like, they were like, you want all the toppings? I was like, no.

Yeah. Yes, please. When I tell you it was the best coffee I've ever had in my whole entire goddamn life. Like, it was... They need to put a Dutch Bros downtown. It was so fucking good. Because, like, I hate how it's so far away. Yeah, it was so far away. But it's only, like, from my boyfriend's house. It's only, like, 15 minutes away. Yeah, it's not too bad. It's not too bad, but, like, for that coffee, like, I would do anything. We were both like, oh.

One last thing I'll say that I have for my routines is if I know I'm going to be rotting on the couch all day, like make it productive. I grab my laptop and I do like little aimless, like little work tasks that I need to be doing rather than just scrolling on TikTok and allowing my brain to continuously be mush all day. I'll be mush. I will do like a few little tasks. I'll be mush, but I do like to online shop. Yeah. I love to browse the...

Internet on my fucking computer. Online shopping. Oh, and then Sundays, like, I do like watching a little bit of football. I'm not going to lie. Like I said, that's fun. But...

yeah it's the perfect balance of letting yourself rot but trying not to feel like garbage yeah because like i like to rot when i feel good about my rotting like i don't know like there's like bad rotting and good rotting there's like rotting like the day i was so down bad over it's like i haven't even showered today yet every now and then i brush my teeth like when you're like i'm

down like i woke up at 12 in the afternoon y'all like when i was down horrendous like that's like okay i feel like shit but when you're like showered i did everything like got my groceries like i'm gonna fucking lay horizontal yeah good like it's not if you're doing that every one like one in every fucking three months like

not all the time like it's totally fine to feel like dog shit but if you're doing it every single weekend reevaluate your life bro like you can go out have fun but like don't take it to that fucking level of like now for the next like three days i'm down bad like i didn't get out of bed until 1 p.m and i didn't yeah even like wash my face today like yesterday my boyfriend gave me shit because i was like my voice was gone i was so low energy he went to the gym i didn't even go to the gym and

he was like, damn, like Sam, like you're down bad. Like you can't do a three day bender. I'm like,

Excuse me, sir. When was the last time I've done a three-day bender? I don't do this. He was like, you can't keep up. You can't keep up. I'm like, you're right, I can't. I never do three-day benders. What are you talking about? I'm proud of the fact that I can't keep up with the three-day benders. Yeah, I'm like, you are so right. I can't do three-day benders. I can barely do a one-day bender. Literally, I was like- I go out once and I'm like, never doing that again. Yeah, I was like, but one day is like, I am in control. I know what I'm doing. I can do it. Three days? Nope. Never. I will do that again next ACL. Okay.

That's the next time I will be on a three-day bender. That's it for me. My fucking boyfriend texting me, what do you want for Christmas? Bro, I don't know. Christmas is so far away. I think, is that one thing about boys? Like, they just, like, mentally need to prepare for something like that, like, very soon in advance because they don't know. For what? My boyfriend texted me asking me what I want for Christmas. I'm like, that's far away.

My boyfriend wouldn't even have to tell me what he wants for Christmas because I have things that I think he needs. I know, literally. I'm like, I actually don't care what you want. I have a list of shit that you need. This weekend I sent all of our guy friends my Amazon him list because all of them were like,

oh like what is my girlfriend or like what do like what do i get for christmas or what do i ask for christmas i'm like here's the link like and they were all scrolling through they're like oh my god like these glasses these blah blah i'm like see i know what i'm doing that's funny um i think we're done here i'm i'm done i need a snack and i need to get to work because i'm just i think i need a coffee yeah i cracked open an energy drink mid-pod because i had a coffee at like 7 and it's 11 30 so i need more coffee yeah

It's too cold for me to go to the gym today. I'm going to go to a class. I went to Barry's at 7 in the morning. Yeah. And that's another thing is like I need to... I was going to do either Barry's or like I wanted to do solid core, but I just don't like the solid core class, full body classes. And I don't think they have any other ones today. Yeah, I went to Barry's at 7 a.m. because I had so much to do today that I knew I had to work out earlier or else I wasn't going to get it done. And I couldn't trust myself to make it happen on my own. Yeah, I want to start running again. I can't run that much or else my ankles hurt, but I like...

Like I don't do all the running and the berries. Like I'll like literally half ass and like maybe like skip one because if not like my ankles will hurt. And I dance later, which is so much cardio. And I'm like, my legs are going to be dead. Yeah. Like I'll like like if they're like a six, seven or eight. I'm like, I'm five in this one. I'm jogging. I'm like, I know my ankles are going to hurt. And like, for what reason do I need like to have my legs be in pain for a week? I don't know. I also have to go to the chiropractor today. I have a chiropractor appointment Saturday.

You do? I do. And a massage on Saturday. I have a lot of appointments. I have a hair appointment, I think, this Friday or next Friday. I have no idea. But I am so fucking excited to get my hair done.
