Weekend Reading, 9.11.21.

Hello from LA. I am here until Monday night which is so nice. I had a really lovely week. A family dinner on Sunday, a fun night out with friends on Monday, and then a date night with my sister on Wednesday. In between: work, shooting, podcast recording, ETC! And then I flew here on Thursday night. We’ve had a few loose plans… MOCA (Museum of Contemporary Art) on Friday afternoon, a fun sushi dinner, a few other things… but otherwise it’s a very chill weekend which is my favorite kind of weekend.
