An Update on Your Favorite Bitch
What we’re doing, where we’re living, and who we’re *not fucking
It’s time for an update…
In business:
I’ve been missing. In fact, that should be my new business slogan. I don’t do well with time or stress management. I’m either marketing or advertising or blogging or designing but the one thing I’m sure as fuck not doing is all of them at the same time. So the past few months I’ve been going hard on the apparel business. I booked my very first show and of course, I follow the “go big or go home” motto so my first festival will be a 20’ booth at Country in the Park in Sacramento with an attendance of roughly 38,000 people. Fuck your farmer’s market, right?! It’s a huge event and a lot of prep for someone who has never had a tent in their life. Aside from organizing and ordering 1,000 pieces of clothing to press, I also had to design and build the sets, blueprints, signage, and lighting. We’re leaving for Stagecoach in three days and as of now, I have a million times more work to do when we get back in the nine days before we leave for Sac. The good news is: I only know how to work under pressure so that’s a plus.
I designed a pretty cute little jogger set a few months ago and meant to launch it two weeks ago but without decent photos, I’ve kind of shut down mentally. We did an iPhone shoot at the airport a few weeks ago and it wasn’t everything I’d ever dreamed of so now I’ve pushed back the release date and decided to document the outfit in the wild while we’re at Stagecoach. Give it a real afterparty vibe. I”ll launch it this Friday and ride that wave through to Country in the Park. That’s about all the energy I’ve got to give it right now.
At home:
It’s been a month since I moved back into the fifth wheel and I can tell you the first two weeks were very, very challenging. I have a shower leak, the kitchen sink broke in half, and I didn’t realize how unrealistic it was to think that I could run a heat press business out of a storage unit with no power. I tried working in the driveway but with monsoon season starting, this has proved to be quite the challenge. So I kind of rearranged my housemate’s entire side garage and set up a mock office. Hopefully when we get back from this festival, I’ll have a better understanding of what I need to move forward and how I can pivot from the garage into a legitimate office space. Vegas summer is coming and it looks like it’s going to be the hottest one we’ve ever fucking had, with March being an average 22° hotter than usual so I can honestly say that we may be re-evaluating all the life/business choices I’ve made recently. During this last heat wave, it was up in the high 90’s for more than a week and a half and with both A/Cs running constantly, the trailer was still in the 80’s. If you can’t be in your house and you cant be outside, then where the fuck can you be? Maybe Utah.
In Love:
While I chase my dreams of entrepreneurship in my 40’s, I am yet again bored, lonely, and horny. This waxes and wanes with the day but since cleaning up my diet and losing some weight, I’ve really been hit with the renewed desire to find someone eligible to fuck. So I’m back on the dating apps. It’s so terrible out here, even worse than the last time, and after going on two lack-luster-at-best first dates, I’d almost deleted Hinge for the 100th time. Then I remember that my next orgasm isn’t going to walk through the doors of Wahoo’s, and so I keep on searching.
My first date got shithoused before I was on my second beer and the second date told me how much money he had then complained about the $91 bill. Both were a foot shorter than I expected and neither were fuckable even with a bag over their heads so back to the streets they went. Last night I linked with a guy and used the words 'exhilarating’ and ‘perspective’. Since then, he won’t shut the fuck up about my fancy words and how I might be too smart for him. Based on his age and lack of grammatical skills, I’ve deduced that he may very well be right, but so long as he’s tall, cute, and shuts the fuck up, we might have a winner.
That’s really all I’ve got for you guys right now. As per usual, I promise to do better with my communication skills even though we both know damn well I’m not going to. Wish us the best for our upcoming shitshow on the road and hopefully we’ll see you out there soon!
