how to have a perfect summer solstice

day in the life

wake up and scratch the side of your car

don’t let it set the tone

drive to your old neighborhood

listen to addison and old charli the whole way there

take an early morning breakfast meeting with a friend

drink 3 beverages and split 2 entrées

take a planning meeting

grind out click clack laptop work

go see the parking guy you like and the cat in the book store

buy your boyfriend a hat and your sister a birthday card

stroll down the venice boardwalk

feel at home

pay a visit to your psychic

heed her advice

plan and pull upcoming looks

try on everything

buy the dress for yourself

because it looks like you if you reincarnated into a dress

call a friend in traffic and say i love you 20x

pick up cat food

spend 20 minutes looking at the birds and the guinea pigs

and the beta fish in their individual containers next to all their friends

come home

work more

watch your cat stare out the window

put on a performance to unreleased music

make hot summer love

pack a picnic

with asparagus and prosciutto and the local chips and dip you like

and manchego… can’t forget the manchego

run to fedex

scan stuff

get fresh summer beverages

go to the park

eat snacks and play chess until the sun goes down

blast the AC

forehead kiss

fall asleep watching the lion king
