I have coffee in bed and when my mind is clear I write a little bit.
This weekend was a lot of talking, dancing, and observing.
Please excuse me as I sink back into the silence that is required for me to emerge again.
Lomo metropolis film.
Where the hell /
Did June go?
So much going on in June, time to chill.
My brain has been many many places since June began.
Life is truly a doozy and I'll never stop saying that.
I'm having a great time either way 🌞
And how can you not when life’s this short?
What a beautiful adventure this life is coming up to be.
I cry 🥲
A chance encounter /
A fun night tasting Mezcals and laughing.
A handsome new friend.
“OK is bound to do something horrendous soon”
See you then 🥲
Every now and then /
I like to socialize.
Friday I was able to meet up one of my faves that I hadn't seen in awhile. We went to Saturn Room and I had my first chi chi(delish) then trucked it over to St. Vitus to dance.
Techno makes my neck hurt 🥲
A classic Soundpony selfie- looking like the end of the night 😅 but just so you know, I go clubbing in someone else's grandma's zebra blazer.
It was the latest that I had stayed out in awhile but such a good time.
Someone I met on Friday asked me, “how busy is Tahlia”
My reply was that I'm not that busy other than being busy with not being busy, I need an immense amount of time to myself to feel like a human and be able to get anything done. Rest, recalibration, and solitude are so important to me.
Yesterday I went down to the Legacy Fest and laid out in the sun most of the day listening to music and feeling warm.
I don't really watch TV or movies, but maybe I should. When people ask me what I do with my time(in relation to not watching tv/movies) I'm not sure if it's fortunately or unfortunately but my answer is that I actually spend a lot of time just thinkin'.
I've also entered this time in life where I'm so comfortable being alone and doing things by myself. It's great actually, but it surprises people and that's interesting to me.
It might sound strange but I feel connected to people in a way that I don't actually have to be interacting with them to feel it. I just am connected and therefore very comfortable being by myself.
I decided to take myself to La Tertulia for dinner last night after Legacy Fest. It was my first time, pretty tasty.
Mezcal Negroni & Pollo Adobo for dinner.
After I told the bartenders I was alone they were both (female) really excited for me and that's kind of hilarious.
It's nice to feel as content as I do right now.
Think I'll go out and see my parents today.
Just rolled back into town /
And it's feeling very,
I actually just watched this video for the first time.
I'll never get over this songs vibe.
Tulsa is so green and beautiful it's crazy.
And I'm just going to say it, I kind of like the humidity.
It's moist.
My skin is happier.
The backyard makes me feel luxurious.
It's always so great to see these folks 💛
My family is so hilarious and it makes my 💓 happy.
Sitting on the roof /
Thinkin'
One of my fave pastimes out here.
I feel very blissful up here and about life in general.
Less resistance, more enjoyment.
Listening to Lime Tree - Bright Eyes.
Lots to come 💕
Heavy heart /
Got some bad news tonight that I just kind of have to hold in my mind and heart and hope for the best.
There's always so much going on behind the scenes in everyone’s lives, be kind.
Ain't gonna be /
No middle of the nowhere anymore.
Hafta make my own.
My dream last night /
It was so cray I can't even write out the details here.
Oh but it was quite hilarious 🤣
So I'll leave you with that, I woke up laughing.
Tuesday song:

Think.
And I've always been a fan of that.
A day spent /
In the feels.
Cause I'm in texas /
And I've been day dreaming.
It's only right to share a lil George
About to go ham /
On this pack and ship my Grandma y’all.
But first:
I mean you get it or you don't.
Tomorrow I go into packmaster mode and obliterate my grandma’s packing to dos 😂
But today, when in Rome:
And by Rome I mean we have a dq or a dg but that's about it in this town of 2000.
Today this popped up:
Beautiful song, really gorgeous…but that top comment on the video? 😅⁉️
My whole life was made /
Last night, I saw a wild pack of hawgs on the road.
At first I thought they were dogs, they were so freaking cuteeeeeeee 😭😭😭.
I tend to listen to the same full albums on most road trips, the albums yesterday:
The execution of all things - Rilo Kiley
More adventurous - Rilo Kiley
Under the blacklight - Rilo Kiley
The moon and Antarctica - Modest Mouse
After that I listened to a few hours of this audiobook on product management, “Inspired” by Marty Cagan.
10/10 easy breazy 7hr drive, arrived on Ave G about 10:13.
Happy Friday 🥳
A final return /
To a place that I've loved and spent a lot of time thinking at.
Heading back to Olton, TX tomorrow to help my grandma pack and get ready to move to Memphis, TN.
I feel so happy and grateful that my work is remote, allowing me to be able to assist with this.
One of my favorite photos from last November:
The house at the south farm.
Now….to pack 😅
Morning song /
Something sweet for your morning.
I like the visuals in this video as well.
I think I've probably been listening to Iron and Wine for 15 years or so at this point.
I have a playlist called “Songs that feel like being in love”
Don't judge me.
Some songs just have that vibe. Other iron and wine songs on the playlist:
“Fever Dream” 💘💘💘 && “Love and Some Verses” && the coziest, “Someday the Waves”
The playlist feels like a sun nap in the yard, love feels like a sun nap in the yard.
Actually now that I think about it, God is a sun nap in the yard.
Happy Wednesday 🌄
😂 My dreams last night /
The short on a night of weird dreams was that I was in an Airbnb and the Airbnb owner came by and started making chilequilles. I was going to be late for school(for some reason it was high school) so she texted them for me. I was feeling strange because I had cereal I wanted to eat but also the chilequilles looked very tasty. Her sister showed up with her baby, her brother was stopping by later to pick up a Pepsi, it was a family affair…all in my Airbnb.
Now I want chilequilles.
Anyways I've had this song stuck in my head for a day or so:
Something to remember every morning /
Noon and night too.
